WEC140 Protective Cover for Exit Buttons and Break Glass Units

Clear Protective Cover for Access Control Devices

The WEC140 is a clear polycarbonate protective cover designed to shield compatible press-to-exit buttons and emergency break glass units without obstructing visibility. Its generous internal space accommodates a range of device sizes in access control and emergency-exit installations.

Key Features

• Helps prevent accidental button activation
• Provides added protection against impact and interference
• Clear construction keeps instructions and device status visible
• UV-treated polycarbonate for improved outdoor durability
• Large internal area for a range of exit buttons and break glass units
• Suitable for commercial, industrial and residential access control applications

What Is Included

• 1 × WEC140 clear protective cover

The press-to-exit button, emergency break glass unit, mounting hardware, seals and installation are not listed as included.

Check the Device Size Before Ordering

The WEC140 has internal dimensions of 140 mm high × 110 mm wide × 54 mm deep. Measure the complete device, including any protruding button, frame, conduit entry or back box, and allow sufficient clearance for normal operation before ordering.

Compatibility is determined by the device dimensions and installation layout rather than its brand alone.

Press-to-Exit Button Protection

In busy corridors, warehouses, schools, offices and public areas, an exposed exit button can be pressed unintentionally or damaged. The clear cover adds a physical barrier while keeping the button visible and accessible when required.

Emergency Break Glass Protection

The cover can also help protect a compatible emergency break glass unit from accidental operation or impact. It must be installed so the emergency device remains clearly visible and can still be operated as required. Confirm all applicable access, fire, emergency-egress and building requirements before installation.

Outdoor and Exposed Locations

The polycarbonate is UV treated for improved durability in exposed locations. No IP weatherproof rating is stated, and the cover does not automatically make the enclosed electrical device weatherproof. Confirm the suitability of the complete installation, including the button, enclosure, cable entries and sealing method.
