2N 01550-001 IP Force/Safety Gooseneck Stand Double
The 2N 01550-001 is a professional-grade mounting stand engineered to secure two 2N Force or Safety intercoms simultaneously at entry gates and access points. Built from solid metal construction, it delivers the mechanical stability required for outdoor perimeter security installations where vibration, weather, and continuous operational stress demand a rigid platform.
Key Features
- Dual-Unit Configuration: Accommodates two intercoms side-by-side or staggered. In high-traffic facilities — apartment lobbies, industrial checkpoints, campuses — this redundancy means one device can handle visitor calls while a second manages emergency notifications or staff callbacks, without single-point-of-failure vulnerability.
- Solid Metal Construction: All-metal chassis resists corrosion, sustained wind loading, and thermal cycling in harsh climates. Unlike plastic or hybrid mounts, metal fabrication maintains rigidity over years of gate-swing vibration and weather exposure — important when your intercom alignment directly affects microphone pickup and camera sightline.
- Reflective Safety Band: Integrated reflective striping improves nighttime visibility, so visitors approaching gates or loading docks can quickly locate the call button without fumbling or delay. A small detail that matters on 24/7 operations where response time is logged.
- Gooseneck Positioning: Flexible neck design lets you adjust both angle and height to optimize microphone pickup and sightline — critical at gates where ambient noise (traffic, dock equipment) and variable visitor heights require precise acoustic and optical positioning. You avoid costly remounting or acoustic dead zones.
- Compatible with 2N Force and Safety Intercoms: Works exclusively with 2N's IP-based intercom line. If your facility runs mixed vendor hardware, this stand locks you into the 2N ecosystem — verify your existing or planned intercom model before committing to this mount.
- Simplified Installation: Straightforward mounting process reduces on-site labor and integration time compared to custom fabrication or field-welded solutions.
Integration & Compatibility
The 01550-001 is purpose-built for 2N Force and Safety intercoms. Before ordering, confirm your current or planned intercom model belongs to one of these two families. If you operate a mixed-vendor voice/access control infrastructure, evaluate whether standardizing on 2N's IP intercom line aligns with your broader system roadmap. For additional information on compatible intercom models or integration with access control panels and VMS platforms, consult the 2N product documentation or your systems integrator.
Typical Deployment Scenarios
Ideal for multi-tenant residential properties, industrial warehouse entry gates, office campus checkpoints, and healthcare facilities requiring robust, weatherproof dual-intercom installations. The reflective band and metal durability make it well-suited to outdoor, unmanned perimeter locations where the stand must survive years of rain, UV exposure, and mechanical stress without losing structural integrity or reflective visibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I mount a single intercom on the 01550-001, or does it require two units?
A: The stand is engineered for dual-unit deployment. While single-unit mounting may be physically possible, it is not a recommended or tested configuration. For single-intercom applications, consult 2N for dedicated single-mount alternatives.
Q: What is the maximum wind load or structural rating of the 01550-001?
A: Specific wind load and structural ratings are not detailed in the available product documentation. Contact the manufacturer or your integrator for load calculations if your installation site experiences sustained high winds or requires formal structural certification.
Q: Is the 01550-001 suitable for indoor or outdoor use?
A: The solid metal construction and reflective safety band indicate outdoor-rated design. However, specific IP and IK ratings are not listed in the available specifications. If your site requires formal environmental certifications (IP67, IK10, etc.), verify with the manufacturer or technical datasheet.
Q: Does the gooseneck stand require any special tools or wiring for installation?
A: Installation is straightforward and does not require specialized tools. Power and network connectivity for the intercoms themselves must be provisioned separately via PoE or auxiliary power supplies, depending on your 2N Force or Safety unit specifications.
Q: Can the stand be used indoors in lobbies or common areas?
A: Yes. The gooseneck design and metal construction work in sheltered indoor environments (lobbies, vestibules) as well as outdoor gates. The reflective band is still visible indoors and aids wayfinding in low-light foyers.
Q: What is the warranty coverage on the 01550-001?
A: Warranty terms are not specified in the available product documentation. Contact the manufacturer or your specialty distributor for warranty period, coverage scope, and any hardware replacement policies.

The 2N 01550-001 solves a real deployment problem: outdoor intercom stands that don't sag, corrode, or misalign after a season of weather and vibration. Solid metal is the right material choice here — it won't flex or degrade like plastic or composite designs, and the integrated reflective band is a practical touch that improves visitor experience on nighttime approaches.
Technical Highlights:
- Dual-Unit Capacity: Two simultaneous intercom positions eliminate the need for separate mounts or external hardware racks. Cleaner installation, fewer wall penetrations, and easier cable management when both units share a single vertical post.
- Solid Metal Chassis: Resists corrosion, wind-induced vibration, and thermal cycling — a significant durability gain over plastic or hybrid mounts in coastal, high-traffic, or extreme-temperature sites where rigidity directly affects microphone performance and camera sightline stability.
- Reflective Safety Band: Improves wayfinding in low-light entry scenarios (night arrivals, dawn deliveries) without requiring additional signage or lighting retrofit — a small cost-saving detail on perimeter security operations.
Deployment Considerations:
- This mount is 2N-exclusive — it works only with 2N Force or Safety intercoms. If your facility runs mixed-vendor hardware or plans multi-brand expansion, verify intercom standardization before committing to this stand.
- Environmental ratings (IP, IK certifications) are not published in available specs. If your gate or checkpoint requires formal weatherproof or impact certifications, request datasheet details or test reports before installation in high-stress environments.
Best fit: warehouse entry gates, residential multi-unit lobbies, and campus security checkpoints where you need rock-solid dual-intercom positioning without field fabrication or custom bracket engineering.
