2GIG E+ Outdoor Wireless Contact

Harden your perimeter—even outdoors. The 2GIG-DW30E-900 is an E+ extended-range, two-way encrypted contact built for gates, sheds, pool enclosures, and outbuildings. With up to ~1.2 miles (open air) range on 900 MHz, a wide magnet gap (up to 1.3″), and an IP56 weather rating from –40° to 150 °F, it’s made for tough environments.

Why Choose This with Smart Shield Systems


  • Outdoor-ready installs: we mount and align for the 1.3″ magnet gap and weather-seal as needed, then verify RF back to the panel.

  • Works where others won’t: designed for gates, garages, and even poles/curved spots—we pick the hardware and placement that lasts.

  • Clean programming: we enroll the sensor, confirm supervision (≈70-min), tamper, and low-battery reporting, and label it clearly in your app.

  • Expandability: need a latch or specialty switch, too? We can wire an external NO/NC dry contact into the same transmitter.


Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions


Is it really weatherproof?


Yes—IP56 with an operating range of –40° to 150 °F and 0–100% RH (non-condensing). We still avoid spots where ice or standing water could obstruct movement.


How far will it reach?


The E+ spec lists up to ~1.2 miles (open air). Actual range depends on distance, terrain, and construction; we verify with an RF survey.


Can it handle flexible or misaligned gates?


Yes—the wide magnet gap (up to 1.3″) helps tolerate movement. We align and test so minor shifts don’t cause false alarms.


Can it be installed on round posts or curved surfaces?


The product is designed for gates, garages, and poles/curved areas. We choose mounting hardware that fits your post and finish.


What power source does it use and how long does it last?


A single CR123A lithium cell with up to ~5 years typical life; your system will alert on low battery.
