Drive Up Accessibility
When the APEX will be positioned for drive up accessibility, the
device must be mounted within easy reach of the driver of an
automobile or light truck. Most of these locations use gooseneck
stands on an island between the entry and exit gates (or to the
left side of the gate if a single gate is used). “Drawing 1: Drive up
accessability” on page 2 shows different entry layouts.
Local building codes may set a minimum and maximum height for
devices that are accessible by vehicle. shows suitable mounting
locations when used for vehicle access.
Walk Up Accessibility
When the APEX is used for walk up access, it can be mounted on a
stand or attached to a wall. It can also be surface mounted so that
it protrudes from the wall.
Mounting Access Devices
The proper mounting height for the APEX varies with the application
and it can be installed at an entrance on a gooseneck/bollard or
attached to a wall.
Once the keypad location is determined, note , the location and
purpose of the device on a site security wiring plan. Keep the plan
in a safe location for future maintenance and service purposes.
Surface Mount
Surface mounted keypads are often used in conjunction with door
strikes and elevators.
Mounting height is usually 48” – 58” from the floor to the center of
the ‘5’ button on the touchpad. However, the final location of the
keypad may be affected by local building codes.
The choice of fasteners depends on the construction material of
the wall.
