Poolguard GAPT-2 Outdoor Pool Gate Alarm,White

I do not like the delay time I believe it is 7 seconds I would like to have 3 seconds for the application I am using it for

These are great! I installed 3 of them on the gates leading into our pool area, and they have been working perfectly for a couple of months now. I installed all the parts directly onto the pool fence, at the top, using some black zip ties. I did the same on the gate for the sensor, made sure that the 2 line up, and it works perfectly. If the gate is opened, you have 7 seconds to press the button or an alarm will sound. Even if you close the gate. If you press the button, the alarm doesn't sound or it stops if it already started. The alarm is pretty loud. If you were outside in the back yard you'd definitely hear it. If you were in the house and it was quiet you would hear it too. In the house with music on you may have trouble hearing it, but I think that meets our needs. One thing I will note is that the unit comes with 6 feet of wire connecting the base to one of the sensors. For us that was overkill, so I just neatly tucked it behind and zip tied it to the fence with the base. Its not the sexiest thing to look at, but it gets the job done. Our pool is safer for having this!

Didn’t work. Had to postpone our pool inspection. Frustrating.

Easy to install and use. Only issue is the wire is too long for our application. Takes a 9v battery not included. We used Velcro to install to avoid screw holes in the door jam. Alarm delay is 7 seconds which seems long if truly needed for a small child entering pool area.

Good idea but only lasted a week. I searched around for a while before I bought this pool gate alarm. I finally bought one for one of the three gates with intentions to get two more for the other gates if it worked well. After about 1 week it started alarming randomly at all hours. I replaced the battery thinking maybe it was doing this because of low battery power but it continues to just alarm randomly. For $50 I expected much more and now that I am at a $50 loss I am happy I did not but one for all 3 gates. I can’t recommend this product at all. And I’m bummed that I’m out of the window to return it and I am left with the installation holes in my vinyl railing.
