Additional magnets for Elk-6021 mini sensors

I am putting in the Elk 6000 wireless transceiver and some sensors. I like the Elk-6021 mini window sensors. What I would like to do is to use two magnets on the lower portion of a double hung window so that it can be used in two ways: when it is closed and if i want to secure it being a few inches open as well (if it was desired to allow the alarm to be secured with the window partially open. If it were opened further it would alarm).
 
While I could use a magnet from a traditional wired sensor, I was wondering if the magnet side of the ELK-6021 was available separately? This would make for a more consistent and cleaner installation. I suppose an alternate would be a magnet I can buy multiple of to keep it consistent (and replace what comes with the sensor. The Elk-6021 looks 'clean'.
 
Does anyone have any recommendations for something like this?


 
 
 
Thanks. It looks like that may be what I need to do and not use the Elk ones in certain areas, which will also give me extra sensors to use the Elk ones in other areas. The look of the Elk ones seemed a little cleaner and I did not want to mix two types on one window. I'll check to see if there are perhaps other options than the traditional ones.
