Setup with instructions The parts come preconfigured and need no Wi-Fi, so a family member can set it up from the instructions. Still, placing the mat, connecting the transmitter, and testing each alert path takes a bit of care. Adding extra triggers like magnetic switches takes more effort. That makes guided setup a good fit.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This kit alerts you with sound, light, and vibration when someone steps on a pressure-sensitive floor mat, such as at a doorway, in a hallway, or beside a bed. The mat connects to a telephone transmitter, which sends a wireless signal to an alarm clock receiver. The receiver can flash a bright light, play an adjustable sound, and trigger the included bed shaker. Color-coded indicators show which source set off the alert. It's built for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and want to know when someone comes or goes. The pieces come preconfigured to work together and don't need Wi-Fi. The transmitter also has input ports for extra trigger devices like magnetic switches, using 3.5 mm or 2.5 mm cables.

  • Out of the box
    Place the contact mat on the floor where you want to detect someone stepping, like a doorway or beside the bed.
  • With a guide
    1. Plug in the telephone transmitter and connect the contact mat to it, then place the alarm clock receiver where you will see and feel it.
    2. Connect the bed shaker to the receiver and slip it under the mattress or pillow.
    3. Step on the mat to test the alert, then adjust the sound level and check the color-coded indicators. Plan on about 20-30 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
