STI STI-9649 Emergency Light Damage Stopper
Overview
The STI STI-9649 is a protective cage designed to shield emergency lighting fixtures from accidental impact and damage in commercial and institutional environments. It mounts directly over the light fixture using six anchor points, preventing staff, equipment, or maintenance activities from striking or jarring the fixture during normal operations. This is a straightforward mechanical guard for any emergency light installation where the fixture sits in a high-traffic or accessible area.
Compatibility
The STI-9649 is sized for standard emergency light fixtures commonly found in commercial buildings, schools, hospitals, and warehouses. Verify your fixture dimensions against the guard's opening before ordering — the cage is designed for typical surface-mount emergency lights. STI manufactures a full range of guards for different fixture types and sizes (smoke detectors, beam detectors, PIR sensors); confirm your specific light model matches the STI-9649 envelope before installation.
Installation Notes
Mount requires six 1/4-inch diameter holes drilled 1.5 inches deep into the mounting surface (drywall, ceiling tile, or structural member). Six #10 anchors are provided; insert anchors into drilled holes, then secure the guard with the six #10 x 1.5-inch Phillips pan head screws supplied. Center the guard over the fixture and mark all six hole locations before drilling. Tighten all screws evenly to ensure the guard sits flush and level. No tools beyond a standard 1/4-inch drill bit and Phillips screwdriver are needed.
