STI KIT-BB1CA Back Box for US Single Gang NoTouch Cast Aluminum Button
Overview
The KIT-BB1CA is a back box assembly designed for wall-mounted installation behind a single gang US electrical outlet. It provides the mounting enclosure and interface for STI NoTouch cast aluminum button units in access control applications. This accessory solves the infrastructure problem: where your button needs to sit in an existing single gang opening without requiring a full new cavity or surface-mounted housing. 9VDC operation keeps it compatible with standard low-voltage access control power budgets.
Compatibility
The KIT-BB1CA is engineered for STI NoTouch cast aluminum button readers. Verify compatibility with your specific button model before ordering — not all NoTouch variants accept single gang back box mounting. Integration with credential readers (HID and others) depends on the button's reader interface; confirm reader compatibility separately. The single gang form factor fits standard US electrical box openings, making it appropriate for retrofit applications where existing infrastructure is already in place.
Installation Notes
Mark and drill four mounting holes using a 7mm masonry bit for concrete or masonry substrates. Use the wall fixings provided to secure the back box frame. Position the enclosure centrally over the opening before marking. For surface installations, use supplied inserts to blank off unused cable entry holes. Route 9VDC power and any button signal/reader wiring through the cable gasket; select the gasket appropriate for your wiring type (cable or conduit). Allow clearance behind the wall for button depth and any reader modules.
