The Kidde 2459-SMB-R provides a clean, code-compliant surface mounting solution for Genesis 2400 Series wall notification appliances. When there's no recessed box at the mounting location, this back box gives installers a solid steel platform with built-in conduit access - mount the box, pull wire, and attach the notification appliance directly to the face.
Built for the fire alarm installer
Heavy-gauge steel construction with a durable fire red baked enamel finish stands up to commercial and institutional environments without painting on-site. Pre-punched conduit knockouts and mounting holes keep install time to a minimum, and a grounding provision supports NEC-compliant installations out of the box.
