Hello! I've reviewed the user manual for the ELK M1KCWB Keypad Conduit Wall Box. This document outlines the installation procedures for mounting ELK keypads on surfaces where wiring cannot be concealed. It covers the use of conduit knockouts and the two-piece design for surface mounting. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about this product.
