The 2Gig alarm system is one of the best security systems for a long time. Its color touch screen makes it easy to see and operate. Arming and disarming the system involves a few taps on the screen to complete the operation. The system’s status is also easily viewed on a color touchscreen display. Each device in the system can be programmed with a custom message. This is essential for knowing exactly where the alarm is being generated.
Color Touch Screen Display
The screen size is 3.75 x 2.25. All functions are displayed in full color, and all features are available from the color touch screen. Remote features such as arming, disarming, and panic are interfaced with a key fob. The 2gig control panel can be accessed remotely using any computer or smartphone. This is available through alarm.com.
2Gig Door Sensor
The wireless door sensors are compact and easy to install. The sensor programming is easy to understand. The sensor itself is one of the smaller ones. The only smaller sensor is the DSC Door sensor. The sensor comes in white, as do most door sensors. Very few door sensors have multiple colors available. The door sensor also can use magnetic door switches that may already be installed in your home. A two-wire adapter can be used to connect to the existing door contact. The surface-mounted door contact blends very well with most door jambs, but in some cases, the white sensor is not pleasing to the existing décor. In this case, the door sensor can be located out of view, and you can use a recessed magnetic door contact.
2Gig Motion Detector
These motion detectors have a unique mounting bracket that allows you to adjust the direction of the motion detector easily. The detector can be swiveled to the left or right or adjusted up or down. It can also be mounted without the bracket. Inside the detector, there are adjustments for sensitivity and pet immunity. Pet immunity allows pets to range from 33 lbs to 55 lbs. If you have a pet larger than that, you may not need a security system (just joking). There is a walk test feature that should be used during the installation of the motion detector and can also be utilized if false alarms are an issue.
2Gig Smoke Detector
This smoke detector is a wireless photoelectric smoke detector with a built-in heat detector. The heat detector is dual-purpose. It has a 135-degree fixed sensor and also a rate-of-rise heat detector. The rising rate detects a fast temperature change that could indicate a fire before smoke enters the smoke detector chamber. There is a walk test feature, but a glass break simulator tool will be needed to test the unit accurately.
2Gig Glass Break
The glass break detector should be used on windows that do not open. These would be large panes of glass typically located in a living room or a business’s storefront. The sensor, mounted on the ceiling, can detect glass breaking from a distance of 15 feet in any direction.
2Gig Carbon Monoxide detector
Carbon monoxide is a silent killer undetectable to us through smell, taste, or sight. Many people die each year while sleeping. The carbon monoxide detector saves lives by detecting high levels of carbon monoxide and alerting you before it is too late.

2Gig Super Switch
This device is one of the most innovative devices that I have seen in some time. Many home security systems need an upgrade. In recent years, technologies have advanced quickly, security systems have become obsolete, and they wear out and stop functioning correctly. In most cases, the original door magnets work fine. The super switch allows you to reuse up to 8 hardwired zones per switch. Your old security panel remains in place, and the super switch integrates the existing hardwired zones into the new 2Gig panel. This allows your system to be wireless from the panel location to the new control panel. This is a huge cost saver. The cost of eight new wireless door sensors can be in the range of $200.00.
2Gig Keyfob
The key fob allows you to arm and disarm your control panel remotely. It can also be used to arm in stay and away modes. An auxiliary button can also be programmed for panic or garage door opener functions.
