It's the Hard-knock Life: Protect Electronics Against Vandalism
Having obviously listened to too much Guns ‘n Roses in their youth, some individuals simply have a seemingly insatiable ‘appetite for destruction’. These miscreants stalk the streets under cover of night, searching for property that they can deface for no reason other than that it does not belong to them, and painting a picture or writing a gritty poem simply does not provide them with the necessary level of artistic expression. These people are known as vandals, and any item fitted outside of your property – or sometimes even within – is fair game.
Unfortunately, vandals are inexorably drawn to electronic equipment like crows to pieces of silver, so if you have an intercom gate station, tag reader, infrared gate safety beams or keypad mounted outside your property, you’ll do well to guard them against these destructive forces.
Besides providing a level of protection against the nefarious night-time nastiness of nocturnal nuisances up to no good, fitting your gate station, keypad, infrared beams or tag reader with an anti-knock shield will also aid in prevent water from running down the wall onto which it is mounted and into the unit. In this way, anti-knock shields take on a dual role as both a suit of armour and a rain shield. Double win!
Lastly, fitting an anti-knock shield will lend the unit a certain aesthetic appeal, similar to what was accomplished by the chrome bumpers attached to many cars in the 60s and 70s, making it appear both stylish and rugged – both of which it will assuredly be! So, with it being both protective and good-looking, it’s kind of like having a mother that also happens to be Scarlet Johansson.
