NRA Life Member knows his stuff and posted his solution with a SS2 entry sensor; should work for SS3 too.

I used a 2" angle bracket and a 5" long straight strapping iron. I attached ther angle bracket to the metal stiffener near the track by drilling 2 holes in the stiffener and attaching it with sheet metal screws. I attached the magnet to this bracket. I attached the straight piece to the outside of the track by drilling a 1/4 hole in the track and using a 1/4-20 bolt with a shallow head so it woldn't interfere with the rollers. I attached the entry sensor to this bracket.
By adjusting where I drilled the holes in the metal stiffener, I could position the sensor and magnet about 1/2 apart. Seems to work when I tested it.
