0:22 Not a big deal in that it will still work, but kind of a pet peeve of mine. That Rex motion is mounted upside down. The X-Y adjustment screws should face the door, not face away. I know why everybody mounts these backwards, its because more of the window is exposed making you think its more adjustable up and down wise.
This is a Kantech shown, but the Bosch DS150/160 motions even have an arrow pointing "towards door" printed on the mounting base and people still install it backwards when mounting on the ceiling.
😅
Secondly, why is the reader on the hinge side?

Other than a couple rookie installation mistakes, you guys present a great customer intro to access control video👍

Hey cool video, if you wanted to change the back up batteries due to failure, what would the procedure be? Is it as simple as just unplugging the old and installing the new?

What about the doors are the retrofitted or do you have to get new doors?
