Note: This product must be used with the GE 45129 Wireless Control Center or with the GE 45142 Wireless Control Center Starter Kit (each sold separately). The GE 45131 Window/Door Sensor can work alongside other wireless Choice Alert components as part of a GE Choice Alert Wireless Alarm System.

Part of the GE Choice Alert Wireless Alarm System
The GE 45131 Window/Door Sensor is part of the GE Choice Alert Wireless Alarm System line of products. Cost-effective and easy to install, Choice Alert components offer wireless operation, multi-zone coverage, home and away settings, all-weather function, and expandability for complete home protection.

With wireless capabilities, Choice Alert products require no complicated wiring, drilling or expensive installation costs. And because they are designed to be part of a self-contained system, there are no monthly usage charges. System components are simple enough for anyone to use, and can be combined to provide a customized blanket of protection over your entire property.

Wireless Control Center for Sensor Monitoring
The entire Choice Alert Security System is designed around the Wireless Control Center, the system's hub. The Control Center monitors each and every sensor that is wirelessly connected to it. As many as four sensors can be programmed in each of four zones, giving you the security of up to 16 sensors to guard your entire home, including sensors for doors, windows, gates, water leaks, and motion detection.

The Wireless Control Center allows you to secure your system with a custom four-digit code that can be changed at any time. Plus, the center lets you control many system features. For example, you can select 'Home' mode for an instant alarm and 'Away' mode for a delayed alarm. In addition to the armed alarm system, the Control Center also offers a visible and audible Zone Notification alert system (with a choice of continuous alert or single chime mode) and a dedicated alert zone (Zone 4). The center wirelessly transmits and receives signals up to 150 feet.

Additionally, the Wireless Control Center features a low-battery indicator that will alert you when battery power is low in a specific zone, so you'll know exactly when to replace the batteries in every one of your components.

Combine Components for Total Home Coverage
To complement the Window/Door Sensor, there are several components available for use with the Wireless Control Center, including a water leak sensor, a motion detector, a secondary audio alarm siren, a signal repeater (for enhanced wireless range), a garage door sensor, and a Silent Alert LED indicator. Add up to 16 sensors and give yourself the peace of mind that only complete home protection can provide.

All-Weather Security that Installs Within Minutes
Installing the GE 45131 Window/Door Sensor couldn't be any easier. Using the included double-sided tape or screws and mounting plate, you can install the sensor on almost any door (interior or exterior), gate, or window within minutes. There's no wiring involved--the sensor wirelessly transmits alerts to the Choice Alert Wireless Control Center within a range of 150 feet.

The Choice Alert Window/Door Sensor can be paired with any of the Wireless Control Center's four zones in just a matter of seconds. Zones One through Three provide alarm protection, while Zone Four is a dedicated alert zone that generates a visual alert along with a continuous beeping alert to discreetly warn you that the zone has been compromised.

The GE Choice Alert Window/Door Sensor is backed by a one-year limited warranty.

This review is from: GE 45131 Choice-Alert Wireless Door/Window Sensor (Tools & Home Improvement)

I wanted something that linked up to cover my doors and some of the windows that are easily accessible. This system is very loud and was easy to install. I bought the control panel and 4 extra sensors. I just set it up and tested it and it works perfectly. I feel safer knowing that if my doors or windows are opened while I'm sleeping I will be alerted and hopefully the intruder will be scared away.

This review is from: GE 45131 Choice-Alert Wireless Door/Window Sensor (Tools & Home Improvement)

This security system works well. Sometimes difficult to get programmed, but once programmed it works great and gives some relief of security and a good night's sleep. The motion detection works great and the other accessories go great with the unit. All accessories I added only made the system better.

This also can be set up for a chime on the front door or back door. if opened you will know.
