Hello, I would like to install windows sensors on a window like this. How would you do it? I have 3 windows like this. Thank you ![image|666x500](upload://wEBHBnF57qN3KWvo2bMVBVT1BiH.jpeg)

    I have a few big double sliders like that as well. What I did was to use small bar magnets attached to the outer sider's window frame, with the Ring contact sensor in the inner slider's frame: ![image|689x500](upload://hRcHPxbThUxcUzlbRWZHYMrQL9R.jpeg) ![image|671x500](upload://4INc8GSFZwNlK2QH0jQcvVWGWzw.jpeg) This way, no matter which slider moves, the magnet and contact sensor will move apart from each other and will trigger the "open" alert.
