PROTECTION IS SIMPLEDOOR/HATCH SENSORS are used to protect the boat in the picture below. A hatch / door sensor used on a door with a carefully hidden pressure mat placed in front of the door provides an excellent alarm scheme for open boats. Often the wires to the pressure mat can be placed so that they are not accessible. These hatch / door sensors can be used for doors, hatches and moveable windows.PURCHASE HATCH / DOOR SENSORSPurchase separately or add sensors to alarm packages.Free USPS Priority Mail shipping in USA.ANSWER TO QUESTION:1.
