Description

Viking Electronics VE-6X7-SS Stainless Steel 6x7 Surface Mount Back Box

Overview

The VE-6X7-SS is a heavy-duty 316 marine-grade stainless steel surface mount enclosure built specifically for Viking VE-series intercom and entry products. At 6.72" x 5.64" x 3.4" (171mm x 143mm x 86mm), it provides the depth and footprint needed to house Viking's standard VE-series panel assemblies in exposed or corrosion-prone environments where a painted steel box would degrade. The #4B brushed finish resists surface rust, salt spray, and moisture — the reason to spec this over the standard painted variant when the installation is outdoors, coastal, or in a high-humidity interior like a pool deck or food-processing corridor. The 0.060" 16-gauge 316 alloy adds meaningful rigidity compared to lighter-gauge alternatives: the box won't rack or distort under repeated door-slam vibration. If you need surface mount without the rain guard, Viking offers the VE-6X7-NR-SS (no rain guard, 2.38" depth). Shipping weight is 2.2 lbs (1.0 kg).

Compatibility

Designed for Viking Viking Electronics VE-series intercom and entry system products that share the standard 6x7 panel footprint. Compatible models documented in the VE-Series Product Manual include the VE-6x7 and VE-6x7-SS panel configurations across the VE-series line. Verify your specific Viking panel model against the VE-Series manual (pages 2–7) to confirm the 6x7 form factor before ordering — Viking offers multiple box sizes across the VE product range, and selecting the wrong footprint means a non-starter at rough-in. The VE-6X7-PNL-SS is the painted-steel panel variant at the same 6.72" x 5.64" x 3.4" dimension if stainless is not required. This enclosure is for intercom and access control surface mount applications only — it is not a flush or recessed box.

Installation Notes

Surface mount only — no recessed or in-wall use. The 3.4" depth accommodates standard Viking VE-series wiring runs; confirm conduit entry clearance against your specific back-box knockout layout before roughing in. 316 stainless is non-magnetic, which matters if your install involves proximity to magnetic lock hardware or reed switches — verify sensor placement accordingly. For intercom mounting accessories and related hardware, confirm compatibility with your Viking panel model number before ordering.
