Scanford 414 Adapter
The Scanford 414 Recess Fitting provides a professional mounting solution for integrating fire detection components into false ceilings or suspended panels. This hardware creates a low-profile finish by recessing the detector base into the ceiling void. It ensures that only the sensing chamber remains visible to the occupants. The unit utilizes high-impact polycarbonate to maintain structural integrity during installation and long-term deployment. It serves as a critical component for maintaining architectural aesthetics in modern commercial builds.

The Scanford 414 adapter made the ceiling work much easier for my fundi. We wanted that clean flush look for the office lobby and these fittings held the lights perfectly without any gaps. The metal is sturdy, not those flimsy ones you find in downtown shops.

Solid mount for the price. It fits the 414 series exactly as described and the white finish is quite neat once installed in the gypsum.
