Keedex K-BXDBL234 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a standard cylindrical lockset fit the Keedex K-BXDBL234 gate box?
The K-BXDBL234 is prepped for 2-1/8 inch cylindrical locks, which is the standard cross bore on knob and lever sets, so a typical commercial cylindrical lockset drops in. If the hardware you are installing is a mortise lock or a deadlatch with a rectangular case, this box is not the prep you want.
2) What are the dimensions of the Keedex K-BXDBL234 weldable gate box?
Measured as stated by Keedex, the box is 4-3/4 inches wide by 8-5/8 inches high by 1-3/4 inches deep. That 1-3/4 inch depth is what decides most jobs: the box has to sit within the tube or channel of the gate frame, so measure the stile face before you cut. The 8-5/8 inch height also needs clear stile between rails.
3) Should I get the Keedex gate box in 14 gauge steel or .125 aluminum?
Two materials are offered on the K-BXDBL234: 14 gauge steel and .125 aluminum. Match the box to the gate. Weld steel to a steel frame and aluminum to an aluminum frame, since welding dissimilar metals is not a field job. Steel is the usual pick for painted steel picket and tube gates; aluminum is for aluminum ornamental fence and storefront-style gates where a steel box would eventually rust at the weld.
4) What is a weldable gate box actually for?
A gate box gives a cylindrical lockset somewhere to live on a gate that has no door stile to bore. You weld the K-BXDBL234 into the gate frame and the box carries the lock body, so the hardware is enclosed and supported instead of hanging off a picket or a thin tube. It is an installer-fabricated part: expect to cut the frame, weld, then finish and paint or powder coat the box yourself.
5) Does the Keedex gate box come with a lock or any mounting hardware?
The K-BXDBL234 is the box alone. You supply the cylindrical lockset, and you supply the welding and the finish. Order the lock separately and confirm it uses the 2-1/8 inch cylindrical prep the box is cut for. Nothing bolts on, so there are no screws or fasteners to specify with it.
6) Is the Keedex K-BXDBL234 suitable for a commercial property gate?
Keedex rates the K-BXDBL234 as commercial. In 14 gauge steel it is heavy enough for the perimeter and pool gates that see constant traffic in apartment and multi-family properties. Bear in mind it arrives raw for welding, not as a bolt-on part, so a fabricator or a locksmith with a welder does the install.
