Abode has introduced two new Apple Home-compatible sensors aimed at monitoring access points that are often harder to cover with standard indoor sensors. The company launches the Garage Tilt Sensor and the Outdoor Contact Sensor. According to the reports, the Garage Tilt Sensor is intended for locations such as garage doors, while the Outdoor Contact Sensor is designed for outdoor-style entry points, including gates and sheds.
Both outlets describe the new sensors as part of Abode’s DIY smart home security lineup and as devices meant to extend coverage to areas like storage units, mailboxes, and other structures where a contact or tilt-style detection method is useful. One source frames the release as targeting areas “inside a home” where existing sensor options may not fit well, while still emphasizing use cases that include outdoor-related entry points.
The outlets also indicate that Abode provides product details and pricing for the new sensors, though the specific figures are not included in the provided excerpts. Overall, the additions expand Abode’s Apple Home support with hardware focused on garage and perimeter monitoring.
