Surface Mount Back Box for 3x4 Keypad
The Essex BAK BOX-SGS is a stainless steel mounting enclosure designed for surface installation of an Essex 3x4 access-control keypad. It suits installers and facility managers who need a durable, weather-resistant housing for a single keypad unit.
Keypad-Specific Fit and Tilted Orientation
The box accepts only the Essex 3x4 keypad; other keypad sizes or brands will not align with the mounting points. The keypad tilts upward once installed, which improves visibility and ergonomics but limits use on surfaces where a protruding angle would obstruct traffic or violate clearance rules.
Simple Surface Installation With Included Hardware
Mounting hardware is supplied, so the box fastens directly to a flat wall or mullion without a separate back-plate. The stainless steel body resists corrosion but conducts heat, so the interior can become warm in direct sun; installers should verify that the keypad’s operating temperature range covers the mounting location. Cable entry points are not described, so plan conduit or grommet placement before drilling.

Questions about this item
Which Essex back box matches my 3x4 keypad?
The BAK BOX-SGS is built specifically for Essex 3x4 keypads, so it aligns with the mounting holes and tilt angle without adapters.
What does the stainless-steel construction mean once the box is mounted outside?
Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion, so the enclosure survives rain, humidity and temperature swings without degrading.
How does the surface-mount design limit installation options?
It mounts directly on a flat wall or mullion with the included hardware, so no recessed cavity or cut-out is required.
