A sturdy, cost effective, pad mount, dual headed pedestal for cars and pedestrians (See ''Vehicle Height Chart''.) Also mounts card readers, intercoms, cameras, keypads, entry/exit buttons, biometric readers, telephone entry systems, housings, and other access control devices in times when more than one device needs to be mounted on a single pedestal stand. Most often installed for automatic gate entry and exit, parking lot, and perimeter access applications. Includes a face plate with universal holes patterns, heavy duty base plate, and a sliding cover plate to hide the mounting bolts that secure the base. Whereas a competing pedestal may be made from .074'' wall tube, this pedestal is made from .120'' wall tube (62% more steel) and is designed to withstand abuse from vandals or Mother Nature. This pedestal has passed our facewind testing protocol which determined it can survive sustained Category 5 hurricane force winds of 157 mph. The neck is cut and welded at 90 degrees allowing the wiring to pass easily from the ground, through the pedestal, and into the access control device-- making installation very convenient. The two necks are separated by 10.00'' (on centers.) Furthermore, this pedestal is first bead-blasted to eliminate contaminants and blemishes, then powder coated with an outdoor rated TGIC polyester finish with UV protectant to help promote longevity in any weather condition.
