Frequently Asked Questions
- Does this mounting box suit mullion style Neptune exit buttons?
Yes. NEMSMB is a mullion size surface mounting box intended to suit Neptune mullion format exit button plates. - Where does the cable enter the box?
The box includes a 22 mm cable hole at the rear for cable entry from the mounting surface. - What is a common installation mistake to avoid?
Do not overtighten fixings into thin substrates. Use suitable wall plugs or rivnuts so the box stays rigid and the exit button does not flex during use.
Additional Information
- Mullion back boxes are commonly used in Australian retrofit access control jobs where frames are too narrow to recess cabling.
- If the exit button plate uses through bolts, confirm you have enough clearance inside the box for fixings and cable bend radius.
- For external or washdown areas, seal around the rear cable entry if moisture ingress is a concern.
