Honeywell OP40HONS Switch Plate Proximity Reader

Product Description

The Honeywell Commercial Security OP40HONS is a switch plate proximity reader designed for access control applications in commercial and light industrial environments. It mounts in a standard switch plate form factor, allowing it to blend into existing wall configurations without drawing attention. The unit ships with three color cover options, giving installers flexibility to match the reader to the surrounding wall finish or to color-code multiple entry points within a facility. Licensed security integrators and low-voltage access control technicians are the primary installers for this type of device.

The OP40HONS is suited for interior access control points where a low-profile reader is preferred over a traditional mullion or surface-mount format. Typical installations include office suite entry doors, server rooms, utility closets, and other controlled areas where a wall-plate aesthetic is acceptable. The switch plate housing allows the reader to be installed alongside standard electrical devices in a multi-gang box configuration, making it practical for locations where space and appearance are both considerations.
