Vicon VAN-AC-HABK-1 Horizontal Angle Bracket; for Mounting the R

Vicon 262242251 VAN-AC-HABK-1 Horizontal Angle Bracket is a specialized mounting accessory designed to improve the ergonomics and read-range of access control readers by providing a fixed 20° offset.

A security technician installs this bracket when a reader must be mounted on a wall adjacent to a door where a flat mounting would make it difficult for users to present credentials. The bracket is designed to be compatible with standard North American single-gang electrical boxes, allowing for a clean, recessed wiring termination. During daily operation, the 20-degree angle ensures that the reader face is directed toward the approaching user, which is particularly beneficial for meeting ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance or improving the line-of-sight for keypad-based readers. This installation is ideally suited for narrow corridors, glass-fronted entryways, and high-traffic commercial office doors where optimal reader positioning is required for a seamless entry experience.

Features

• Fixed 20° Horizontal Offset improves the read-zone for users, making it easier to present fobs, cards, or mobile credentials without awkward wrist positioning.
• Ambidextrous Design allows the bracket to be flipped during installation to angle the reader toward the center of the doorway from either the left or right side.
• Single-Gang Compatibility ensures the bracket aligns perfectly with standard electrical backboxes, concealing all mounting hardware and wiring for a professional finish.
