2GIG TILT100-345

The 2GIG TILT100-345 is a wireless tilt sensor designed to monitor the open and closed position of overhead garage doors and other tilt-style doors. It uses a built-in tilt mechanism to detect door movement, making it a reliable solution for tracking garage door status without the need for traditional magnetic contacts.

Operating on the 345 MHz wireless frequency, the TILT100-345 is compatible with alarm systems that support 2GIG and Honeywell-style 345 MHz wireless devices. This makes it a common choice for systems using compatible receivers or takeover modules. Because it is wireless, the sensor can be installed without running wires, which simplifies installation on sectional or roll-up garage doors. For more information on wireless sensor technology, see What Is a Wireless Alarm System?.

The sensor is typically mounted directly to the garage door panel. When the door changes position, the internal tilt switch detects the movement and reports the change to the control panel. This allows the system to determine whether the door is open or closed and trigger alerts, automations, or monitoring events as configured. Unlike standard contacts, the tilt sensor does not require alignment between two separate pieces, which can be helpful on large or uneven doors.

The TILT100-345 is powered by a long-life 3V CR2450 lithium battery, reducing the need for frequent battery replacements. Once enrolled into a compatible system, it can report status changes and low-battery conditions back to the panel. This makes it suitable for both monitored security systems and smart home setups that rely on accurate garage door status.

This sensor is commonly used in residential security systems to monitor attached or detached garages. It can also be used on other doors that move on a tilt axis. Compatible panels and receivers can be found on the Alarm Grid security sensor page.
