Frequently asked questions
Does this system prevent resident wandering effectively?
Yes, this system is specifically engineered to monitor high-risk individuals and prevent elopement by providing an immediate audible alert as soon as a door or window is opened.
Is the alarm installation complicated?
Not at all. The alarms feature a convenient adhesive backing that allows for a secure, tool-free installation on door or window frames in just seconds.
Can I choose between different sound levels?
Yes, each unit includes a three-position switch that lets you toggle between:
- Off
- Chime (for a softer alert)
- Alarm (for a louder, more urgent notification)
Do I need to reset the alarm manually?
No, the system is designed to be self-resetting. It automatically returns to its ready state the moment the door or window is closed, ensuring continuous protection without any manual intervention.
What is the lead time for this order?
Because these items ship directly from the manufacturer, please allow for a lead time of approximately 2-3 weeks for your order to be processed and shipped.
Where is this alarm system best used?
These units are highly effective in clinical and residential care settings, such as nursing homes and assisted living facilities. They are ideal for monitoring exits, balcony doors, or windows where resident safety is a priority.
What is included in this purchase?
Each order includes a five-pack (5 units) of the Skil-Care Door Alarm System, allowing you to secure multiple locations within your facility or home immediately.
Will these alarms be very noticeable on my frames?
The units are designed with a clean, minimalist, and clinical aesthetic. Their compact size and cream-colored finish are intended to blend unobtrusively with standard commercial or residential door frames.
How does the alarm detect if a door opens?
The system consists of a two-part sensor mechanism. It monitors the proximity between the door/window and the frame; when the contact is broken (i.e., the door is opened), the circuit triggers the pre-selected alert.
Are these durable enough for daily facility use?
Yes, these are constructed from durable plastic with a robust, professional design intended for the rigorous demands of healthcare and residential care environments.
