BEA BEA-10SWITCH1084 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the BEA 10SWITCH1084 door position switch still signal correctly if my door and frame have a wide gap?
The 10SWITCH1084 is the 2 inch gap version, so it keeps sensing across a 2 inch separation between magnet and switch. That covers warped commercial doors, thick weatherstripping, and offset frame conditions where a tighter switch drops out and throws false open signals. BEA's other magnetic switches sit at 0.5 inch (10SWITCH75) and 0.75 to 2 inch (10SWITCH1076), so if your gap is small and consistent, one of those is the cheaper fit.
2) How does the 10SWITCH1084 wire into an access control panel?
It lands on a surface mount terminal strip rather than a flying pigtail, so you strip and screw your conductors down at the switch instead of splicing in a box. Contacts are SPDT, normally open, which gives you both a normally open and a normally closed leg off the common. That means you can feed a door-forced or door-held input on a controller either way the panel expects it without adding a relay.
3) Which BEA magnetic door position switch should I order for my opening?
Measure the gap between the door face and the frame stop where the switch will sit, at the closed position. Under half an inch and tight, the 10SWITCH75 covers it. A variable gap in the three quarter to two inch range takes the 10SWITCH1076. If you are at a full two inches and want screw terminals at the switch instead of leads, that is the 10SWITCH1084. Order the switch to the widest gap the door actually shows, not the design gap, or you will chase intermittent alarms after the door settles.
4) Is a surface mount magnetic switch like the BEA 10SWITCH1084 the right choice, or should I use a recessed one?
Surface mount is the retrofit answer. The 10SWITCH1084 screws to the frame and door face with the terminal strip exposed for wiring, so you are not drilling and coring a hollow metal frame on an occupied opening. A recessed switch is the one to specify on new construction or where the switch has to be hidden from tampering or from sightlines. On existing doors, especially where the gap has opened up over time, the surface unit is what goes in without pulling the frame apart.
5) Do I need one BEA 10SWITCH1084 per leaf on a pair of doors?
Yes, one per leaf. A magnetic position switch reports one leaf only, since the magnet mounts on the door and the switch on the frame directly opposite it. On a pair you monitor each leaf and wire the two together at the panel, typically in series on the normally closed leg so either leaf opening reports the opening as open. The SPDT contact arrangement gives you that closed leg.
6) Can I use the BEA 10SWITCH1084 on an exterior door or in a cold environment?
The contacts are plated to resist sticking and freezing, which is what fails first on a monitored exterior opening cycled through winter. It is a commercial rated device. The 2 inch gap also helps on exterior doors that swell, sag, or sit on a worn threshold, where the leaf no longer closes tight to the frame.
7) What does a magnetic door position switch actually do in an access control system?
It tells the panel whether the leaf is open or closed. A magnet on the door and a reed switch on the frame make or break a circuit as the door swings, with no physical contact between the two halves, so there is no plunger to wear out and no click when the door closes. That state is what the controller uses to generate door forced open and door held open events, and to know when to drop a maglock or strike back to secure. Without it, a controller knows a credential was read but not whether anyone actually went through.
