door sensors
Opening detection devices
Door sensors are devices that detect when a door opens or closes, typically using magnetic contact between two components—one on the door frame, one on the door itself.
They're fundamental to home security systems, triggering alarms or notifications when entry points are breached.
Door sensors also appear in commercial settings to track foot traffic or automate climate control: The door sensor chimed when customers entered.
