Keedex K-BXSGL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a Keedex K-BXSGL gate box used for on a metal gate?
The K-BXSGL is a weldable single gate box that welds onto a gate frame to create a housing for a cylindrical knob lockset where there is no door stile to bore. It is sized for a 2-3/8 inch backset knob lock, which is the standard residential/light-commercial cylindrical backset, so a common knob set drops into it without special ordering. It is a housing only, no lock or knob comes with it.
2) Does the Keedex single gate box come in aluminum, or only steel?
Two materials: 16 gauge steel and .075 aluminum. Pick the one that matches your gate, because you are welding it on. Steel box to a steel gate frame, aluminum box to an aluminum gate. Mixing the two means dissimilar metal welding, which is why Keedex offers both.
3) Can I use a lever lockset in a Keedex K-BXSGL gate box instead of a knob?
The K-BXSGL is specified for knob applications with a cylindrical lock at 2-3/8 inch backset. If you need a lever, look at a Keedex gate box built for lever trim rather than forcing this one, since the box face prep and the 4-1/2 by 3-1/2 inch footprint are set up for a knob rose.
4) Single gate box vs double gate box, which do I need?
The K-BXSGL is the single box: one box, for one leaf of a gate with one lock. If you are locking a pair of gates where each leaf carries hardware, or you need a box on both sides of the opening, a single box covers only one of them and you order accordingly. For a standard swing gate with one cylindrical knob lock at 2-3/8 inch backset, the single is what you want.
5) Do I need to weld a Keedex gate box on, or can it be bolted?
It welds on. The K-BXSGL is a weldable box, which means the install is a fabrication job, not a screwdriver job. Budget for a welder on site and for finishing, the box ships bare in 16 gauge steel or .075 aluminum and gets painted or coated after welding to match the gate.
6) Is the Keedex K-BXSGL rated for commercial gates or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The K-BXSGL is a commercial-grade weldable gate box, built from 16 gauge steel in the steel version, which is the usual choice for perimeter gates and courtyard gates on apartment and institutional properties where a knob lock has to be mounted to a welded frame.
