Detex EAX-2500S Gray Wall Mount Ac Dc Powered Alarm

Product Description

The DETEX EAX-2500S GRAY is a wall mount, surface mount alarm unit designed for door and access point monitoring in commercial and institutional facilities. Powered by AC or DC current, it provides flexible installation options where a hardwired connection is required. The unit ships with the EA-561 warning sign and a black box enclosure included, reducing the need for separate accessory orders. It is finished in gray and is typically installed by licensed electricians or security technicians as part of an egress control or unauthorized-access deterrent system.

This alarm is suited for commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and industrial sites where monitoring of doors, stairwells, or restricted access points is required. The surface mount design allows installation directly to a wall without recessing into the structure, making it appropriate for retrofit applications or locations where in-wall work is not practical. The included EA-561 warning sign supports code-compliant posting at the monitored entry point.
