Product description

🔌 JVA Gate Contact 2‑Way

The JVA 2‑Way Gate Contact is a security accessory designed to detect and signal the open or closed state of a gate in an electric fence or perimeter security system. When installed on a gate (vehicular or pedestrian), it sends a 2‑way (open/closed) contact signal back to a controller, alarm panel, or energizer interface.

🔑 Key Features

• Two‑Way Contact Monitoring – Detects both open AND closed gate states

• Robust Construction – Built for outdoor use and regular gate movement

• Simple Wiring – Connects to alarm panels, energizer inputs, or security controllers

• Versatile Use – Works on sliding, swing, or pedestrian gates

• Reliable Switching – Clean contact closure signal for status monitoring

📌 What It Does

The 2‑Way Gate Contact provides real‑time status feedback:

• Closed Contact: The gate is closed/latched

• Open Contact: The gate is ajar or open

This is useful for:

• Triggering alarms or notifications when a gate is opened

• Preventing energizer arcing by coordinating fence outputs with gate position

• Integrating with remote monitoring systems to log gate activity

• Interlocking with security cameras or lights to activate on gate movement

🛠 Typical Installation Steps

1. Mount the contact switches on the gate frame and gate leaf

2. Wire the leads back to your controller, alarm panel, or energizer input

3. Configure the monitoring system to recognize open/closed states

4. Test operation by opening/closing the gate and observing the signal

📍 Typical Use Cases

• Electric fences with access gates — to detect when a gate is opened

• Security systems — integrated with alarms or remote monitoring

• Automated gates — for interlock or status reporting

• Perimeter control systems — in farms, commercial properties, and compounds
