STI STI-6519 Single-Gang Protective Cover
Overview
The STI-6519 is a single-gang hinged protective cover molded from impact-resistant polycarbonate, designed to guard biometric and keypad access control readers against vandalism, accidental damage, and environmental exposure. The cover maintains a closed position via stainless steel torsion spring and features a continuous hinge for durability. Working temperature range of −40°F to 250°F (−40°C to 121°C) supports both indoor and outdoor installations. This is the correct choice when your access reader installation faces high-traffic corridors, exterior door frames, or harsh weather where push buttons, keypads, fingerprint sensors, or electrical outlets need impact and moisture protection without compromising usability or credential transmission.
Compatibility
The STI-6519 accommodates standard single-gang mounting footprints and fits STI biometric readers, keypad modules, and fingerprint authentication devices. Compatible with both smaller push-button units and keypad-based systems across STI's access control product line. The cover does not obstruct reader signal or credential submission — operation and enrollment workflows remain unchanged.
Installation Notes
Fast, simple installation using the included mounting hardware and gasket. No tools beyond a drill and screwdriver are required. The gasket should be replaced after five years of service to maintain environmental sealing. The polycarbonate is available in clear or smoke-colored variants; verify your choice before ordering based on indoor/outdoor visibility and aesthetic requirements.
