PSA announced a partnership with Magnasphere a US manufacturer of door contact technology. Magnasphere features magnetic, non-defeat resistance to permanent contact welding, and all-steel construction. Magnasphere Motion, powered by Inxpect, features advanced radar and radio sensors that dramatically reduce false alarms found in other motion-sensing technologies.

Magnasphere is fast becoming the standard when secure door protection is required. Replacing the antiquated reed switch, Magnasphere’s contacts allow for up to three systems to be controlled in a single contact – many of which are fire classified for use in fire doors.

“Magnasphere’s technology is an excellent addition to an impressive line-up of secure door protection products offered through PSA,” said Ric McCullough, president of PSA.

“Magnasphere has rapidly been innovating its product categories and we are thrilled to bring them on as a partner.”

“We are very excited to become a part of the PSA family,” said Michael Keegan, vice president of security products for Magnasphere.

“The member companies are some of the finest integrators in the country and the training at PSA TEC is second to none. Magnasphere’s products will be a perfect complement to the high level of security that PSA members provide.”

PSA is the world’s largest systems integrator consortium made up of the most progressive security and audio-visual systems integrators in North America.

Magnasphere leading-edge technology aims to set new industry standards for high-security sensors while providing a more affordable and effective alternative to inferior reed switch-based security system contacts.
