Arlington Industries Siding Mounting Kit with Built-In Box
Arlington Industries' 81XX Series Siding Mounting Kits give electricians and contractors a clean, code-compliant way to mount electrical devices on vinyl, lap, Dutch lap, and shingle siding — without cutting into the wall or fighting a separate box. The integrated electrical box is built right into the mounting block, so the rough-in and the weatherproof enclosure are one piece. UV-rated white plastic holds up outdoors without yellowing or cracking, and the paintable surface lets you match any siding color. UL and CSA listed. Made in the USA.

- Route wiring through the built-in box knockout and make connections per NEC requirements and local code.
