Vicon VAN-AC-VABK-1Vertical Angle Bracket; for Mounting the Rea

Vicon 262282251 VAN-AC-VABK-1 Vertical Angle Bracket is an ergonomically designed mounting accessory that provides a fixed 12° downward tilt to optimize reader accessibility and visibility.

A security professional installs this vertical bracket when an access control reader is mounted at ADA-compliant heights to ensure a comfortable interaction angle for all users. The bracket is designed for seamless integration with standard North American single-gang electrical boxes, providing a secure and clean housing for cable terminations. During daily operation, the 12-degree tilt angles the reader’s face slightly upward or downward (depending on orientation), which significantly reduces glare on keypads and aligns the read-zone more naturally with a users hand or mobile device. This installation is ideally suited for hospitals, government buildings, and inclusive corporate offices where meeting universal design standards and ADA accessibility guidelines is a priority.
