Picture of the door would help.

Several ways and means to get one on them.

Thanks for all the good ideas!

 

Yes it is a single sliding, final exit door.

 

I'm going to get a picture of it tomorrow so will share more then.

see....

 

don 't listen to this lot, don't waste your time trying to stick anything on, it will look wan  k, every alarm engineer who walks past will think you're rough and you'll be back every 6 months sticking the thing back on again.

^^^^What he said, and if it does stick you will get the blame for the mess left when it needs replacing.

if a wireless contact is ok, attaching with epoxy should be fine. their are different types with differing properties and cost, but double sided is no good for a permanent solution.

i was asked to instal two maglocks on z&l brackets to double glass doors, using an eppxy supplied by Noralsy for the job. i had massive doubts so clauses and caviates that covered me for next doors cat dying, spent a whole day on just fixing using cramps to get pressure and hold

being a veteran of araldite and super glue failures, to my complete surprise it held, only for three weeks later i was asked to re-move and fit to another set of doors lol!

part of those z&l brackets are still stuck to them first doors today .

why would that be? the base is not changed and thats the bit what is stuck.

System change?

Base damaged?

New model dc?

Probably get something to remove the old glue tho

We are talking a door contact, surely not an issue against uhly cable ir using a beam? but if you want future proof options then mount contact using aluminum angle glued to glass

FFS.  Don't glue a contact to f ucking glass, is this a wind up thread???

Last time we did glass doors we used glass maglock brackets and those big knight contacts. You could mount anything to it

Best solution and if necessary a heavy duty contact could be wired into the input of a wireless contact.
