The Kidde 2459-WPB-R gives you a weatherproof enclosure for surface-mounting fire alarm notification appliances in outdoor and wet-location environments. Drop a Genesis horn, strobe, horn-strobe, or other compatible signaling device on top and the box handles weather protection and clean wiring routing underneath.
Built for outdoor and wet-location installs
Heavy-gauge steel construction with a durable red baked enamel finish holds up in exposed exterior locations, covered walkways, parking structures, and industrial wet environments. Conduit knockouts on top and bottom provide flexible wiring entry paths so you can route conduit from whatever direction the job demands.

Where it fits
Anywhere a fire alarm signaling device needs to go outdoors or in a wet location - building exteriors, covered loading docks, parking garages, mechanical rooms, food processing areas, and other environments where a standard flush or surface mount won't cut it.
