Can I use any magnet with an aeon labs door/window sensor?

Probably a dumb question, but can I use any magnet with this sensor?

Had a little mishap while installing these on my garage doors and now I’m down one magnet

Hoping I can just go pick up a magnet tomorrow and get it working again and that I don’t have to buy a whole new sensor kit. The transmitter/z wave module works perfectly it’s just the magnet I need.

Yes, as long as it’s strong enough. Those magnets used to hold bug screens in window frames should do the trick.

yup… fridge magnets wont do the trick
but you can buy a cupboard magnet , these will do fine
