Overall product is reliable and make you feel safe.

The Window/Door sensors are not the most attractive pieces of hardware you’ve ever seen. The silver terminals on the magnet are exposed instead of hidden within a housing. They do work very well though, which is the most important feature they could have.
Be aware that in most of the product photos they do not show you the wire that runs from the “wireless” unit to the magnets, but there is one. It’s only wireless back to the main control panel. With some planning you could probably install this with the wire hidden, like in new construction. For those of us with existing door and window frames however it will be hard to completely hide the wire.
Also keep in mind that if you keep your windows locked, an intruder will most likely be breaking your window, not just sliding it open. I chose to use these units on my doors and am looking into the vibration sensors for the windows instead, but they might work for your application.
I attached a few photos at the top of the page, and you can see where I needed to modify my wooden door trim to get the sensors to sit flat. I used a Dremel to do this, and it wasn’t hard but there was not another way for me to mount these and get them to work without modifying the trim around the door frame.
Overall they do work very well and I can accept the aesthetics of them for the price I paid.

Install was straight forward. The door where this item was installed used both of the provided spacers to bring the magnet in line with the switch. The only problem was when I encountered a metal door jamb the screws provided broke under what I thought to be only minor force. But after the holes were opened a little more and other screws selected, install went correctly.

I bought this in addition to the Skylink SC-100 Security System Deluxe Kit. Once figured out it works great.
