I think you mean "Double Knock"?!
Is it? I've never heard of it. The average magnetic contact has an operating gap in execss of 20mm. Newer ones will stretch to 80mm! That's some warped door!!! As for wind... I have never known wind to cause a door contact to operate. That is unless the door is blown open!
Door contacts are usually fitted in the door frame on the opening edge for ease of wiring but can also be mounted in the head of the frame approx 6 inches from the opening edge. As a general rule the door should open a maximum of approx 8 inches before the contact operates and the further from the opening edge the more the door needs to open. On bolt hinged doors the contact can also be fitted on the jamb edge.
Usine two detectors in parrallel is another idea but is messy. Dual-tec detectors do the job well.
With respect... glass breaks detectors are useless because the ultra-sonic sound they rely one (breaking glass) can be caused be many other natural sources. Fridge motors is a good example! I remember in the early 80's when these bacame popular. We installed hundreds of them in schools, shops and the like. Then the kids discovered that if they through milk bottles outside the window the bloody alarm would activate! No, forget break glass detectors.
As for window foil. It's outdated by many other forms of setection such as curtain PIR's etc. You can't even buy the proper foil and blocks these days.
Smoke bombs eh?! Corr!
Burglar identifying paints?? Don't think so. You've been watching too much
007!Maybe you mean ID spraying? In which case, as we're on a DIY group, I don't think it's worth mentioning as the minimum cost of registration and instalation is around £5k!
A/T wiring has been standard since the 60's and is an absolute must. It's not just there to warn of attack but also to give alert to damaged wiring etc.
But it is if it does the job. In my time I have installed thousands of 3 PIR systems with panels that have no more than a single knoxk circuit. They rarely false alarms and always activated on intrusion.
I'm not having a pop at you NT. I'm just using your post as an example of how wrong terminology and poor advice can cause more confusion that it's worth. We're talking security here and it's not good to give outdated advice and non-suitable idea's.
