That had better be a helluva microswitch for 40quid. I'm guessing I can buy
the cheapie and fit a microswitch to save cash, anyone tried this on Chubb
or any other?


Can you fit a switch in the hole where the bolt goes?


There are some problems with that:
1. The switch will be used as a final setting switch for an alarm. If it is in
the lock case the switch will only release when the key is used but if it's in
the bolt pocket it would also release if the door is jemmied.


Why is that a problem? Just curious.
