MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Each Knox Document Cabinet is coated with a tough TGIC
powder coating and includes a 1/8" thick stainless steel
dust cover to protect the lock. It is always best, however, to
locate the unit in an area which is sheltered from moisture
and possible mechanical damage.
The Knox Document Cabinet itself is an inherently strong
cabinet, but proper mounting is important to achieve
desired security.
Knox Document Cabinets are fully tested and listed by
Underwriters Laboratories as anti-theft devices.
GENERAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. CAUTION! Be extremely careful when handling the
Knox Document Cabinet prior to installation. When not
mounted, the door will be OPEN. Always hold box and
door securely to prevent door closing on fingers and
causing injury.
Tamper Alert: If your Knox Document Cabinet has the
Tamper Alert feature, remove the rear Tamper Alert and
set aside for installation after the cabinet is mounted.
2. Always mount your Knox Document Cabinet to
7/8"
a secure solid wall. The Knox Document Cabinet
should never be mounted with the door facing up.
3. Use a small level to plumb the box square.
4. Use at least eight (8) mounting fasteners (Grade 8
bolts) of 5/16" diameter. Units may also be welded
into place. For best security, bolts should go through
8"
a solid wall with large washers on the opposite side.
5. We strongly recommend that all Tamper Alert
connections and adjustments be carried out by a
qualified alarm technician.
