The Kidde 6830-NY-S4 puts a dedicated two-way voice link between floor wardens and the fire command center on any wall, without a separate phone system. Surface mount, keyed cabinet, armored handset cord - it installs fast and stays operational when it counts.
Built for the commercial installer
Surface mount design eliminates the need for a recessed box or in-wall prep. The red steel cabinet keeps the handset secured behind a keyed door, protecting it from tampering in public corridors and stairwells. 4-state operation supports the full emergency communication cycle from standby through all-clear, giving floor wardens real-time situational awareness from the fire command center.
