Window / Door Sensor

Take your security beyond video monitoring with a Window / Door Sensor Set from Lorex. Small, but incredibly crucial, this sensor will notify you the moment a window or door has been opened. Simply stick the sensors on any door or window frame in your home. Then, the moment that their close connection is broken you will be notified through the Lorex Classic App. Connect a total of 10 sensors to the Lorex Sensor Hub or up to 32 to the Lorex Smart Home Security Center to ensure you always know of any windows or door openings.

Link Sensors to Lorex Security Cameras

Automatically start the recording on a compatible Lorex security camera the moment an add-on sensor is activated. This means that the linked camera will already be recording before it is able to detect the motion itself, which can give you valuable pre-event video to provide more context.

Faulty device

"Battery did not last 5 days. I purchased on Amazon and Lorex refused to replace because it was supposedly not from an authorized seller, but at first they were willing to replace it. After they informed that, I asked if they could just sell me a new one, but then they stated they were out of stock. Not sure how they were going to replace it at first but now can’t even sell me one… already wasted my money on the Hub so I just wanted to try a different sensor to see if the battery life would be better."

Jacob G. (5/5)

Decent, reliable.

"Does what it is designed to do. It starts to get flaky when the batteries get weak, sending false notifications when you are not home. It raised an eyebrow the first couple of times it notified that the door had been closed an hour or longer after we had left. Once we figured out what was happening we changed the battery and it worked just fine. Note: the initial batteries it shipped with did not last a year. The app can be a little flaky with the sensor hub. It often will not disable the first try. But all in all a good little system."

good afternoon, I’m buying a Lorex alarm set for the 2nd time and the door sensors are not turning on, please tell me, maybe I’m doing something wrong
You can call our technical assistance service, they will be happy to help you. Technical Support: 1.888.425.6739
I have 2 AK41TK door sensors installed and connected to my hub. In the last month one of the door sensors sends a "closed" event once or twice a day. There is no corresponding "open" event. Is frustrating because at night I was trying to use this as an alarm. Battery shows normal in the app, I have removed the magnet and sensor and reinstalled closer to each other to ensure there is contact and no jiggling. Are there recommended troubleshooting steps? Might it be defective? I would have checked the hub but the other AK41TK sensor not having issues is on the same hub and is further away from the hub than the one that is having issues. I really like the system otherwise.
You can try to reset the sensor and delete it from the app and from the hub, then make the initial setup again, if the issue persist, please contact support at 1-888-425-6739
I can't get my door sensors to notify me as the camera's do, any reason why the sensors won't send a notification to my phone via the Lorex Home App when the doors are being opened?
You can check on the Sensor Hub's home and away setting. Make sure you configure each sensor based on your preferred setting. You may call our Technical Support Hotline for further assistance on 1-888-425-6739 and select option for Technical Support.
