Eve Door & Window - Door & Window Contact in action

Setting it up - easier than it looks

Despite its slightly intimidating appearance, setting up the Eve Door & Window is surprisingly straightforward. Included at delivery are 4 spacers that make calibration easy. The quick start guide takes you through both the installation of the Eve app and adding in your new devices.

Exclusively for Apple

The Eve products have been designed to work exclusively with iOS device, so you’ll need an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (with iOS 11.2 or later) in order to use the Eve Door & Window. Owners of an Apple Watch can also use this to interact with the Eve products, allowing one to set up Scenes directly on the smartwatch itself.

Your automated smart home

Automating the behavior of the device and accessing it remotely will require a home hub in the form of an Apple TV (tvOS 11 or later) or an iPad (with iOS 11 or later). Remote access allows you to use the Eve Door & Window as a first defense against home intruders, as it will continue to deliver information about the status of your door or window even when you’re far away from home.

An idea for your Eve network

Even without the home hub, the device still works well as part of your larger Eve network. For example, you could place it on the front door and have it function as a trigger for activating your home entertainment system connected to an Eve Energy. This way you can come home to a house filled with music every day, from the moment you step in the door.
