The 74347U is an outdoor-rated surface-mount backbox built for field installations where flush mounting isn't an option. Die-cast construction and threaded conduit entries handle exterior and exposed environments without the weather concerns that come with standard stamped-steel gang boxes.
Built for the commercial installer
When a notification appliance needs to go on a concrete wall, metal panel, or exterior surface, a weatherproof backbox is the foundation of a clean install. The 74347U provides threaded conduit entries for watertight connections and a durable fire red baked enamel finish that matches the Kidde Commercial notification appliance line. Surface-mounts with rear mounting holes - no special hardware or adapters required.
