Marantec 185267, iSmartgate Wired Magnetic Sensor
The Marantec 185267 iSmartgate wired magnetic sensor is a two-piece position sensor for compatible iSmartgate systems. The contact and magnet mount across the moving and stationary parts of the door or gate so the controller can report open and closed status. This style is often better for gates and non-tilting applications because it reads the magnet gap instead of relying on the door angle. Correct mounting is important. If the magnet is too far from the contact, mounted on a flexible surface, or placed where the moving gate can strike it, the app can show false open or false closed readings. It is a monitoring accessory, not an opener control or safety device.
Compatible With
- iSmartgate Pro controllers with wired sensor input support
- iSmartgate Lite controllers where wired sensor use is supported
- iSmartgate gate monitoring applications
- Swing gate, slide gate, folding door, and other non-tilt layouts when mounted correctly
- Garage door applications where a wired magnetic contact is preferred

Technician Note
For gate installations, protect the low-voltage sensor wire so it cannot be pinched, pulled, or damaged by gate travel.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the controller supports the wired sensor connection.
- Measure the sensor location and wire route.
- Confirm the mounting points hold alignment.
- Protect wire in the gate area.
- Do not use this as an entrapment protection device.
Professional Advisory
For electrical diagnosis, internal opener repair, unsafe door movement, or repeated part failure, use a qualified garage door technician. Do not bypass photo eyes, safety circuits, or factory protections to make an opener run.
Questions and Answers
What is 185267 used for?
It reports open and closed status to a compatible iSmartgate controller using a wired contact and magnet.
Is it better than a tilt sensor for gates?
For many gates and non-tilting doors, a wired magnetic sensor is the better fit.
How far can it be from the controller?
Some listings reference wired sensor use up to about 30 ft, but installation should follow the iSmartgate wiring instructions.
Does it control the opener?
No. It reports position only.
Can it be used outdoors?
It may be used in gate-style applications when mounted and protected correctly, but wiring and weather exposure must be reviewed.
