Product SKU: WSF43
Product Overview
The SECOR WSF43 Stubby Reed Switch White 9.5mm Diameter 20mm Gap is a compact flush mount magnetic reed switch designed for compatible alarm, access control and door monitoring applications. It is particularly suited to timber door frames where a neat recessed installation is preferred over a surface mounted contact. The WSF43 features a normally closed SPST contact, 20mm operating gap and small 9.5mm diameter body, making it practical for discreet door and frame monitoring in residential and commercial security installations. With a maximum resistance of 0.2Ω, 3W maximum rating, 30VDC maximum voltage and 200mA maximum current, this stubby white reed switch is suitable for compatible low-voltage security circuits requiring clean flush-mounted open/close detection.
Key Capabilities
Stubby Flush Mount Design
The WSF43 uses a compact flush mount body, making it suitable for discreet installation into compatible timber door frames.
20mm Operating Gap
The listed 20mm gap provides practical alignment tolerance for compatible recessed door and frame monitoring applications.
Normally Closed SPST Contact
The NC SPST contact format suits compatible alarm and access control inputs configured for normally closed open/close monitoring.
Timber Frame Friendly
The compact 9.5mm diameter body is ideal for timber door frames where a neat recessed reed switch installation is required.
White Finish
The white finish helps the reed switch blend neatly into light-coloured door frames and internal joinery.
Low-Voltage Security Circuit Use
The listed ratings suit compatible low-voltage monitoring circuits where voltage, current and load remain within the specified limits.
Best For
- Timber Door Frames: Ideal for recessed reed switch installation into suitable timber frames.
- Discreet Door Monitoring: Suitable where a less visible contact is preferred over a surface mounted reed switch.
- Residential Alarm Systems: Practical for compatible home alarm systems requiring door open/close monitoring.
- Access Control Inputs: Can be used for door status monitoring where the controller supports NC contact operation.
- Retrofit or New Installations: Suitable for new timber frame work or retrofit jobs where drilling for a flush mount contact is practical.
Why Choose the WSF43
Choose the SECOR WSF43 when the installation needs a compact flush mount reed switch for timber door frames. Its 9.5mm diameter stubby body, normally closed SPST contact and 20mm gap make it a practical option for compatible alarm and access control circuits where a clean recessed finish is preferred. Compared with a surface mounted reed switch, the WSF43 helps reduce visible hardware on the door and frame while still providing reliable open/close monitoring when installed and aligned correctly. This model, supplied by Security Wholesalers, is a useful choice for installers needing a discreet white reed switch for low-voltage security applications.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Confirm the door frame is suitable for a flush mount contact. The WSF43 has a 9.5mm diameter body, so drilling depth, frame material and cable access should be checked before installation.
Buyer Tip: Confirm the alarm or access control input requires a normally closed SPST contact. The connected circuit should also remain within the 30VDC, 200mA and 3W ratings.

Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need a white stubby flush mount reed switch with NC SPST contact, 20mm gap and 9.5mm diameter body.
- Choose a surface mount contact if: The frame cannot be drilled or the installation needs visible screw-on mounting.
- Choose a wider-gap reed switch if: The door or frame alignment requires more than the listed 20mm gap.
- Choose an armoured reed switch if: The contact location is exposed, rugged or needs additional cable protection.
- Check before installation: Confirm contact type, gap, drilling diameter, frame depth, voltage, current, circuit rating and magnet alignment.
FAQs
- What is the SECOR WSF43 used for?
The SECOR WSF43 is used as a stubby flush mount reed switch for compatible alarm and access control systems. It monitors the open or closed state of a door or protected opening using a recessed magnetic contact and matching magnet. - Is the WSF43 suitable for timber door frames?
Yes. The WSF43 is described as perfect for timber door frames. Its 9.5mm diameter and 19mm length make it suitable for discreet recessed installation where the frame can be safely drilled and the magnet can be aligned correctly. - What gap does the WSF43 support?
The WSF43 has a listed operating gap of 20mm. Final performance depends on magnet alignment, frame material, door movement and installation accuracy, so the reed switch should be tested after fitting. - Is the WSF43 normally closed?
Yes. The WSF43 uses an NC SPST contact. The installer should confirm the alarm panel or access control input is configured for normally closed monitoring before connecting the reed switch. - Is this a surface mount contact?
No. The WSF43 is a stubby flush mount reed switch. It is designed to be recessed into a suitable door frame, making it more discreet than surface mounted contacts but requiring accurate drilling and alignment. - What are the electrical ratings?
The WSF43 has a maximum resistance of 0.2Ω, maximum rating of 3W, maximum voltage of 30VDC and maximum current of 200mA. The connected circuit should remain within these ratings for safe and reliable operation. - What are the dimensions?
The SECOR WSF43 measures 9.5mm diameter x 19mm. Installers should confirm the frame has enough depth for the contact and that the magnet can be aligned within the listed 20mm gap. - What should I check before buying the WSF43?
Before buying the WSF43, confirm that your system requires an NC SPST flush mount reed switch, the 20mm gap suits the door, and the frame can accept a 9.5mm diameter contact. This model is available through Security Wholesalers for compatible alarm and access control monitoring applications.
