George Risk Industries 8080 3/4 in Recessed Steel Door Contact

Recess the contact into a 3/4 in opening to monitor a protected steel door without placing the sensing assembly on the face of the opening. The closed-loop arrangement supports a hard-wired security circuit, and terminals provide a direct point for landing field conductors. This configuration suits door openings where a surface-mounted contact would be exposed or interfere with the door and frame. George Risk Industries 8080-T-W-IND combines the recessed steel-door format, closed-loop contact configuration, and terminal connection style in one specific variant. Those details matter when replacing a failed contact: match the existing bore size, connection method, and circuit configuration before selecting the replacement. The contact is intended for door monitoring within an intrusion or access-control alarm circuit. During installation, route the alarm conductors to the terminal side, seat the contact in the prepared opening, and align the door and frame components in the closed position. Verify circuit behavior at the control panel after alignment. Its recessed format keeps hardware less visible than an externally mounted contact while retaining a serviceable terminal connection.
