**Mounting Posts for Access Control Systems** are offered in two heights: 42″ (107cm) with a 36″ (91cm) switch height, and 48″ (122cm) with a 42″ (107cm) switch height. Fabrication options include premium extruded aluminum or stainless steel, available in clear aluminum, dark bronze anodized finishes, and a mill finish suitable for painting. Each post comes with a flame and impact resistant ABS cap, a steel mounting base, and stainless steel hardware. The cap is designed to easily install a Lazerpoint RF™ 915Mhz wireless transmitter and battery pack. An alternative in-ground mounting base is available, featuring welded re-bar for enhanced stability, supplied with the CM-42-BSU-BRZ model in place of the standard base.
**APPLICATION**
Mounting posts provide an effective solution for installing switches, keypads, card readers, or other door activation devices in areas where adjacent door mounting is challenging or impractical. They accommodate a wide range of switches and door activation devices, ensuring flexibility in access control solutions. Available in both stainless steel and aluminum, the posts offer finishes such as brushed aluminum or dark bronze anodized, along with a mill option for custom painting. These posts support both hard-wired and wireless configurations, leveraging advanced radio controls for seamless integration.
