securitywarehouse Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 I am planning to replace an old intruder alarm system with all new equipment. The only problem I can foresee is the space available for the control panel (fitted in a meter cupboard). The existing panel is a GARTEC (h175xw210xd70). An ACCENTA MINI GEN4 (h200xw253xd55) will fit in the space available but there will be little room (approx 20mm) above and below the panel. My question is: How does the front cover of the panel open and/or how is it removed? Does it hinge (top & bottom) and will I have enough room to open/remove it? Quote
accounts3 Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 there is also a question of heat being generated in a small space to be aware of Quote
securitywarehouse Posted January 10, 2011 Author Posted January 10, 2011 Thanks for the reply. Heat build up is not an issue. The cupboard is a large one, the only space restriction is directly above and below where the Panel is sited. This is because there are other fittings above and below the panel which could interfere with the opening of the front cover if it is hinged.....hence my original question. So, does the front cover need to hinge to open or can it be completely removed? I await your reply so I can place my order. Quote
FastCar Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Hi , the lid does hinge , at the top and bottom , you undo the screws , lift the top lid approx 90 degrees then pull forward to remove , same for bottom.I'm not sure 20m will surfice..could only suggest trying it, but I dont know of a smaller end station.

CJ Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 What about the MDT Avanti LC mini Poly End Station h180xw235xd58? How does this one open and is it any good? Quote
