STI STI-PMK0608 Pole Mount Bracket Kit
Overview
The STI-PMK0608 is a pole mount bracket assembly designed for outdoor access control reader deployment. It provides mechanical anchoring for credential readers and associated hardware to standard poles in perimeter security applications—gatehouse entries, parking lot gates, fence-line access points, and similar outdoor credential verification stations. The EnviroArmour designation signals environmental protection suitable for weather-exposed pole mounting. Operating at 9VDC, it integrates with STI access control systems and compatible third-party readers that require pole-mounted installation without internal wall or surface junction box infrastructure.
Compatibility
Verify your reader footprint, electrical draw, and voltage requirements against the 9VDC specification before ordering. The bracket kit is designed for STI access control systems and compatible third-party readers requiring pole-mount installation. Confirm reader power consumption does not exceed available 9VDC supply limits, and check mounting hole patterns and spacing against your specific reader model. Installation in outdoor locations requires compatible weatherproof cable gasketing and conduit sealing practices per local electrical codes.
Installation Notes
Pole mounting requires secure mechanical fastening to a minimum 2-inch diameter pole, typically steel schedule 40 or equivalent. Use a 7mm masonry drill bit where drilling into concrete footings or anchor blocks is required. Install appropriate weather gaskets for cable entry points to prevent water ingress into the reader and strike mechanism. Outdoor 9VDC wiring must run through conduit or weatherproof raceway; verify local code compliance for voltage drop over cable runs exceeding 100 feet. Ground all metal mounting components per electrical code. Verify pole orientation and reader field of view alignment before final installation—credential capture range and lighting angle affect reader reliability.
