The TAKEX SH-M5 Magnetic Modulation Roller Door Sensor is a reliable security detection solution designed for commercial roller shutters, warehouse doors, industrial facilities and self-storage units. Featuring advanced magnetic modulation technology, a 3–12cm detection distance, adhesive magnetic sheets, 10–30V DC operation and low 38mA current consumption, the SH-M5 provides accurate roller door monitoring while helping reduce false alarms caused by dust, moisture, insects and environmental interference.
Engineered for professional security installations, the TAKEX SH-M5 uses magnetic modulation technology to detect changes in the magnetic field between the sensor and specially designed magnetic sheets attached to the roller door. When the shutter moves and the magnetic relationship changes, the sensor activates its alarm relay output, allowing compatible security systems to detect unauthorised roller door opening.
Unlike conventional optical detection systems, the SH-M5 operates without relying on infrared beam reflection. Its magnetic sensing method helps maintain reliable detection in environments affected by dust, dirt, condensation, insects or changing light conditions.
The integrated alarm memory function, adjustable magnetic sensitivity and built-in delay circuit further enhance operational reliability and simplify troubleshooting. Its compact design and flexible mounting arrangements make it suitable for a wide variety of indoor roller shutter applications.

Practical Applications
Commercial Roller Door Security
The TAKEX SH-M5 provides magnetic detection for commercial roller shutters used in retail stores, business premises and shopping facilities. It can be integrated with compatible alarm systems to identify unauthorised shutter movement.
Warehouse and Industrial Security
Suitable for warehouses, factories, workshops and distribution centres where roller shutters require security monitoring. The magnetic detection system offers advantages in dusty environments where optical detection may be less suitable.
Self-Storage Facility Monitoring
A practical solution for self-storage facilities containing multiple roller door units. The alarm memory feature helps security personnel identify the sensor that previously activated an alarm.
Commercial Garage and Storage Doors
Can be used on compatible indoor roller shutter installations to help detect unauthorised opening and improve security monitoring.
Industrial Alarm System Integration
The SH-M5's dry contact relay output allows connection to compatible alarm panels, monitoring systems and security control equipment.
Installation Guidelines
The TAKEX SH-M5 operates with magnetic sheets positioned on the roller shutter surface and the sensor mounted approximately 3–12cm from the sheets.
The magnetic sheets should be securely positioned on the shutter slats, with the sensor correctly aligned to detect changes in magnetic field strength when the door moves.
Magnetic sensitivity adjustment can assist in maintaining reliable operation when installation conditions or external magnetic influences vary.
Optional sensor and sheet mounting accessories can provide flexibility for different shutter profiles, including sliding and pipe shutter configurations.
Installation should be completed by a qualified security technician in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
