An intercom pedestal pole, also known as a gooseneck pole or bollard, is a mounting post for an intercom or call station. It is used to position the device at a comfortable height for the user, usually a driver in a vehicle. Intercom pedestals are often used at gates, parking lot entrances, drive-through lanes, or security checkpoints, where the driver can use the system hands-free without getting out of their car.
A: Yes. All pedestals, including Part Number PD1023, are hollow, allowing wires to be routed through them to the gate hardware.
Intercom pedestals are typically made of steel or aluminum, and are powder-coated or galvanized to withstand outdoor conditions. Intercom pedestals come in a variety of styles and are made to service cars, trucks, or both. The most common styles of intercom pedestals include gooseneck, straight, or dual-height pedestals.
Pedestal housings are enclosures specifically engineered to mount on pedestal poles. They offer a secure, organized, and protected installation point for access control devices. These housings are compatible with a range of access control equipment, including card readers, keypads, intercoms, or biometric scanners, providing protection from weather, tampering, and physical damage. Pedestal housings are ideal for use in gate entry systems, parking applications, and secured building entrances where a durable, accessible, and professional-looking solution is required.
