Choose your location

The easiest way to mount your panel is using the table stand to rest it on a table, countertop, or shelf.

Choose a location that’s close to an outlet and easily accessible for controlling or disarming.

However, avoid putting your panel in high-traffic areas of the home, near a sink or electric appliances, or any place where it can be knocked over or damaged.

Note: The panel can also be mounted to a wall.

However, we highly recommend using the table stand, since a wall install may require additional work and equipment, including drilling and running wiring, that is best done by a technician.

If you prefer a wall mount for your panel, please call our Smart Home Pros for support before attempting this install. You can also watch the instructional wall install video above.

Installation instructions for your table mount

1. Carefully remove the existing screw from your chosen outlet cover. The screw will be on the bottom or the middle of the cover, depending on your outlet.
