The Nest app will tell you how to install and set up Nest Guard,
Nest Detect and Nest Tag. Here are some tips to get started.
Where to place Nest Guard
28-42 inches
(0.7-1.2 m)
Use an unswitched wall outlet.
Choose an outlet that’s not controlled
by a switch, so you don’t accidentally
turn off Nest Guard. The included bracket
helps keep Nest Guard plugged in.
It should be close to where you
come and go.
So it’s easy to access on your way
in and out.
Make sure it’s at the right height.
Put Nest Guard on a table or low shelf so it’s
easy to reach and its motion sensor can see
the room. It must be between 28 and 42 inches
above the floor.
Find a spot with a good
Wi-Fi signal.
Nest Guard needs a Wi-Fi internet
connection so it can send alerts
and notifications to your phone.
The motion sensor should face front.
Keep it free from mail, keys and anything
else that could block its view.

Nest Guard placement
Guard should be plac ed on a surface 28 to

within 2 fe et (0.6 m) of the edge so it has a
clear view of the room. If it’s placed outside

lithium battery.
To open the battery compar tment:
• If Nest Detect is mounted to a sur face, grip the
top and pull it firmly toward you.
• If Nest Detect is not mounted to a surface, use a
flathead screwdriver to pry off the backplate.
INSTALLATION TIPS FOR NEST DETECT
During setup, the Nes t app will show you where to
put Nest Detect and its open-close magnet so they
work properly.
Here are m ore things to consider before you install
Nest De tect on a wall, w indow or door.
Mounting with adhesive strips
Nest De tect and the op en-close mag net should be
insta lled on smooth, fl at surface s only.
1. Make sure th e surface is cle an and dry.
2. Peel the protective cover off the adhe sive strip.
3. Press evenly with your palm and hold in place for
at least 30 seconds.
The adhe sive strips shouldn’t be use d on surfaces
painte d with low-VOC or zero-VO C paint or any
surfaces not lis ted on page 28.
IM PO RTA NT: Ne st Detect ’s adhesive str ips are very
stron g and can’t be ea sily reposit ioned. Befor e you

Install Nest Detect with screws if your walls, windows
or door s have rough surfaces, are contoured or dirt y,
are prone to heat or hig h humidit y, or are pain ted
with low-VO C or zero-VO C paint. For bes t results use a
Phillips #2 screwdriver.
1. Remove Ne st Detect’s mounting backplate and
you’ll see the screw hole.
2. Remove all the adhesive material from
the backplate.
3. Screw the backplate onto the surface. Drill a
3/32" pilot ho le first if you’re at taching it to
wood or other hard material.
4. Snap the Ne st Detect onto its back plate.
To install the open-clo se magnet:
1. Snap off the backpl ate and you’ll see the

2. Remove all the adhesive material from
the backplate.
3. Screw the backplate onto the surface. Drill a
1/16" pilot hole first if you’re attaching it to wood
or other hard material.
4. Snap the open-close magnet onto its backplate.
Orienting Nest Detect for motion detection
When installing Nest Detec t on a door or wall,
the Nest logo must be upright to detect motion.
Insta lling Nest Det ect on a door or win dow
• Nes t Detect sh ould only be inst alled indoor s.
• Ins tall Nest De tect on the upp er corner of a do or or
window wi th the Nest logo r ight side up.
• Nes t Detect sh ould be atta ched horizont ally on
vertical double-hung windows.
• Make sure yo u choose a spot for Nest Detect where
the magnet can also fit. They ne ed to be installed
close together to sense when do ors and windows
open or close.
Installing the open-close magnet:
• Install the magne t on the door or window frame
inside th e room. The Nes t app will show you wh ere to
place i t, and you’ll know it ’s in the rig ht spot when
the Nest Detect light ring turns green.
• The magnet should be aligned with the bottom of
Nest De tect and placed within 1.5 inche s (3.8 cm) of
Detec t when the door or window is closed, as shown
in the image below.
IMPORTANT: Nest Detect should only be installed
indoors.
Insta lling Nest Dete ct on a wall
• Choose a flat spot on the wall or in a corner of a
room. For more information on mounting heights,
refer to page 14.
• Make sure Ne st Detect is pointed toward the area
you want to keep track of. For more information on
motion detection range, refer to page 14.
• To install Ne st Detect in a corner, take of f the flat
backplate and use the included corner backplate
for installation.
Troubleshooting offline issues
If one or more Detects are listed as offline in the
Nest ap p after inst allation, the y may be too far fro m
Guard to connect. You can ins tall a Nest Connect
(sold separately) to bridge the gap, or try moving
your Detects and Guard closer together.

and AC vents
• Curt ains near windows that may move while Nest
Guard is armed
• Direct sun exposure: the front o f Nest Guard and
Nest De tect should not be placed in direct sunlight
• Party balloons left unat tended: they may drift into
the field of view of your sensors
• Insec ts that may come very clo se to the sensor
• Vibr ation or movem ent caused by p ets bumping N est
Guard when it’s set to Away and Guarding
• Wireless access points within 3 feet (1 m) of
