Door Sensor Bundle with Universal Mount: Instant Alerts for Any Van Door

If you own a van or motorhome, we built this bundle specifically for you. Standard sensors often don’t fit properly on doors, so we created the NEW Universal Mount and Smart Magnetic Door Sensor bundle for simple installation on any van or motorhome. Most importantly, it gives you real-time alerts if there is any unauthorized access to your vehicle.

What the Door Sensor Does

The CarLock Door Sensor helps protect your van or motorhome by detecting when the doors are opened. The sensor uses two magnetic components that monitor whether the doors are closed or opened. As soon as the two parts separate, CarLock detects the change and sends a real-time alert of doors being opened directly to your phone through the CarLock app.

Not even an hour later, his phone began buzzing with notifications. At first, he did not think much of it. He assumed it might be someone contacting him about items he had listed on Facebook Marketplace. But then something told him to check his phone.

‘I saw 5 different notifications from the CarLock app,’ Leo said.

The alerts told the story quickly. First, CarLock detected vibration from the additional CarLock Vibration sensor Leo had placed in the driver-side door. Then came an alert that the device had been disconnected. Next, the vehicle had started. And then, it was in motion.
