Wireless Door Lock Sensor
I would like to install door lock sensors on an existing Ademco alarm. Ideally I would like to use wireless sensors such I do not have to run additional wires.
Is there any readily available door lock sensor that can be added to an existing installation? (preferable wireless)?
I searched but actually hardly found any info on such sensors. I would have though that should have been actually a standard part of any alarm to confirm that all doors are locked (and not only closed) before arming. Any insight why this is not considered standard or important? What is the point of arming the alarm and leaving the back door unlocked?
Of course I had a alarm salesman in the house right after I bought it and asked him about door lock sensors and I got a more then disappointing answer (same for asking for some form of protection if the phone line is cut). It seems you can get much out of the sales people such I decided I would rather build the alarm myself.
