STI BPF0806 EnviroArmour Fiberglass Back Panel 8x6

Overview

The BPF0806 is an 8 x 6 inch fiberglass back panel designed to house access control readers and strike mechanisms in outdoor and high-moisture environments. EnviroArmour fiberglass construction resists UV degradation, moisture penetration, and corrosion — a non-conductive backing useful where metal enclosures would rust or where electrical isolation matters. Fits standard reader brackets and 9VDC strike installations where structural support and environmental shielding are required without metal's maintenance burden.

Compatibility

The BPF0806 integrates with STI-standard reader mounting brackets and strike mechanisms rated for 9VDC operation. It is suitable for access control systems using conventional electromechanical strikes or electric locking hardware compatible with this voltage. The fiberglass form factor is non-conductive, making it appropriate for installations where reader isolation or grounding separation is preferred. Confirm strike and reader bracket compatibility with your system integrator before ordering.

Installation Notes

Position the back panel over the device to be protected and mark the four fixing holes. Use a 7mm masonry drill bit for wall mounting. Secure with the provided wall fixings. For surface installations, use cable entry gaskets to blank off unused holes and seal against moisture. Ensure 9VDC strike wiring routes through appropriate cable gaskets to prevent water ingress. Allow fiberglass to cure and fully set before subjecting to environmental stress.
