Wall Mount Gooseneck
A wall mount gooseneck allows the
keypad to be mounted on a wall. It may
be used for door strikes or for gates in
driveways that run next to a building
wall. A gooseneck can also be used
to assist with wheelchair access to a
device. Mounting height is generally 48"
– 58" from fi nished fl oor to the '5' button
on the touchpad for walk up access and
45 inches from driveway level to the '5'
button on the touchpad for vehicular
access.
Keypad Adapter Plate
A keypad adapter plate is an aluminum
plate used to mount keypads to
stands, bollards, and goosenecks
manufactured by other companies. The
installer will measure, mark, and drill
holes in the adapter plate to match the stand they are using.
The holes should be countersunk on the same side as the
installed screws so that the keypad will cover the mounting
screws to prevent tampering. The screws and screwholes
that are provided on the aluminum plate match up with the
APEX keyhole mounting pattern.
Single Bollard
A bollard is used as an attractive and functional stand for
keypads. It helps protect the keypad from
being struck by vehicles. It can be used in
driveways for vehicle access or near doors as a
decorative keypad stand. It can be painted any
color to compliment the site. Mounting height is
determined by the height of the pipe on which it
is mounted.
Double Bollard
Similar in design to the single bollard, the
double bollard is taller and has a second
mounting point above the fi rst to allow both cars
and RVs to enter through the same gate without
requiring drivers to get out of the vehicle to use
the keypad. This design can also be used to
mount a Knox Box for fi re safety.
Bollards can also be fi lled with concrete and used
as barriers to protect keypads, walls, or gates.

Security Checks
A series of security checks are performed by the APEX before allowing
entrance. These checks are used to prevent unauthorized access attempts.
When a customer uses an access code, the checks are performed as
soon as the code is entered. If the customer uses a card, the checks are
performed as soon as the card has been swiped in the magnetic stripe
reader or presented to the proximity reader.
Tamper Check. The APEX performs a tamper check to see if the tamper
switch has been enabled. If it is enabled, it ensures that the switch is
secure. If both conditions are true or the tamper is disabled, the APEX
will proceed to the next security check. If the APEX detects tampering, it
will display the following message and no further access attempts will be
allowed.

Presence Required Check. After checking the tamper, the APEX will
check to see if the Presence Required option has been selected. If it has
been selected, the APEX will check the input to see if a presence has
been detected. If this option has been turned off or if a presence has been
detected, the APEX will continue with the next security check. If the APEX
does not detect a required presence, it will display the following message
and no further access attempts will be allowed.

Maximum Attempts Check. The maximum attempts security check is
designed to discourage someone from attempting numbers at random
to enter the site. If the Max. Attempts before Lockout feature is set to a
value other than zero, the APEX will check to see if the user has tried a
code more than the allowed times. If not, the APEX will proceed to the
next security check. If the maximum number of unsuccessful attempts has
been exceeded, the APEX will display the following message and disable
any further access attempts. The APEX will not allow any further attempts
until it has had 60 seconds without any key being pressed. If a key is
pressed while this message is displayed, the 60 second timer starts over.
