FAQs

What do I need to use a Hue contact sensor?

The Hue Secure contact sensor requires a Hue Bridge-controlled Hue setup, as well as the Hue app. If you wish to control your lights then you also need at least one Philips Hue light (sold separately). If you wish to use your sensor for security monitoring, then lights are recommended but not required.
Can I customize how my lights turn on when triggered by a Hue Secure contact sensor?

Yes. You can customize Hue Secure contact sensors to trigger different light scenes per room/zone you've selected.
How many Hue lights can I control with the Hue Secure contact sensors? 

A Hue Secure contact sensor can control up to three Rooms, a Zone, or even your entire smart lighting setup. It’s up to you! If you prefer to control only a subset of lights within a Room, we recommend first creating a Zone out of them, to get the most flexibility in terms of creating and selecting scenes for them
How can I add my Hue Secure contact sensor to my Hue setup?

You can add a Hue Secure contact sensor to your setup by going to the Hue App > Settings > Devices and tapping on the + button
Can I use the Secure contact sensor outdoors?

The Secure contact sensor is designed for indoor use only.
How can I go back to the factory settings of my Hue Secure contact sensor?

In case you want to restore the default configuration of the contact sensor, or if trying to remove undesired behaviors, navigate to the edit screen of your device and tap on the Reset button
Do I need to connect electrical wires to install the Hue Secure contact sensor?

No. The Hue Secure contact sensor is wireless and battery powered, so you won’t have to worry about any wires.
Can my Hue Secure contact sensors turn off lights?

Yes. Your Hue secure contact sensor can be set to turn lights off immediately when closing the door/window that was opened, or after a certain amount of time after it was opened. You can configure this via the Hue app
Where can I place my Hue Secure contact sensor?

You can use a Hue Secure contact sensor indoors within range of your setup. We recommend placing the magnet — the smaller piece of the sensor — on the part of the door or window that moves, so the door or window itself. Place the sensor itself on the door or window frame. You can place the magnet to the left or right of, or above, the glossy part of the sensor. we don't recommend installing it on steel or magnetic surfaces (such as speakers) because they can affect the sensor's performance. Be sure there's enough space around the sensor to remove it if you need to replace the battery. We recommend you test out the sensor before you permanently mount it

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Philips Hue makes door sensors that seamlessly integrate with their smart lights. The sensor was extremely easy to add to my Hue system. It came with the required batteries already installed and 3M adhesive strips for easy mounting. I paired the Hue Contact Sensor to my Hue app within minutes and easily linked it to Alexa routines. I set up a routine that turns on the hall light when the front door is opened and then waits five minutes before turning the light off. Everything works flawlessly and as I intended. This contact sensor was an excellent addition to my Philips Hue ecosystem.
Home security must have!!

Very good sensor, but you have to buy a bridge for it to work. The bridge serves as the central hub required to connect and control physical Hue motion sensor. I wish the box had an indicator saying the bridge is needed for the device to work. Other than that, the sensor works perfectly good. It detects motion great. It alerts me quick when someone has opened my door. It gives me peace and security to know this device has my home security on lock. It’s satin feel makes it easy to clean and looks nice!!
Great addition to my Hue product collection

This Hue contact sensor was extremely easy to install. Once I opened my Hue app, I easily found the product and it walked me through the directions to properly install. It functions well and it is compatible with my Hue outdoor light which is a bonus.
Easy set up, great action to the hue family products

I’ve been a loyal customer of this brand for over a decade, and it never fails to deliver. However, this is my first time using their product, and I must say, I’m thoroughly impressed. The design is incredibly simple and discreet. It’s not too bulky, and it seamlessly blends in with the frame. The response time is quick and reliable, and I appreciate the ability to check the status through the Hue system. This feature adds a sense of peace of mind when I’m not home. Maintenance is a breeze. The battery is easy to replace, and the overall product is user-friendly. It’s a great addition to the Hue family of products, especially if you’re already using them in your household. You’ll likely find yourself adding more to your collection.
Amazing add on

The Philip hue contact sensor is a simple and surprisingly useful addition to a hue smart home. The main job is essential to detect when a door or window or cabinet is open or closed. When paired with the hue ecosystem the functionality is very helpful when combined with automation.
