Evening all,

I have lost the magnetic catch that attaches to my front door ( to activate alarm) It is not the wired piece - just the block that fits onto the door... does anyone know if i can purchase this separetely.. and if so does it have to be both bits or can i get away with just the one - help please!

Many thnx
:lol:

the block that fits to the door is just a magnet. you'll have to buy the whole switch to replace the door part, but they are very cheap!

Some are coded and other are not but Surface Contact MPS85W Screwfix part number 76045 is most likely what you are asking for.
For obvious reasons we in general do not talk about alarm systems on here but I see no harm in your question.
