About the FSR FL-1300-BLK Floor Box w/ Hinged Door
The FSR FL-1300-BLK is a low-profile floor box designed to provide discreet, secure, and organized access to power and data connections in commercial and institutional environments. Engineered for installation in poured concrete floors, it offers a robust solution for delivering essential services to workspaces, conference tables, collaborative areas, and open-plan offices. Its defining feature is a spring-loaded, flush-mounted hinged door that sits nearly level with the finished floor surface when closed, minimizing tripping hazards and maintaining a clean aesthetic. The door mechanism is built for heavy-duty cyclic use, ensuring reliable operation over thousands of openings and closings, while effectively protecting the internal components from dust, debris, and incidental liquid spills.
Constructed from high-grade materials, the box itself is a durable steel or polymer structure capable of withstanding significant compressive loads as mandated by building codes. The unit arrives as a complete kit, typically including a concrete form or "mud ring," the box body, the hinged door assembly, and necessary hardware for a secure and code-compliant installation. The interior cavity is generously sized to accommodate a variety of standard electrical devices, such as duplex receptacles, data ports, and low-voltage modules, allowing for customized configurations to meet specific project requirements. Electricians and installers value the design for its straightforward wiring access and the ability to create a clean, finished look that integrates seamlessly into modern architectural flooring.
The product's utility extends beyond mere functionality to address key concerns of safety, accessibility, and future-proofing. The low-profile design complies with ADA guidelines where applicable, and the smooth-operating door provides easy access for users. By centralizing connections in a designated, protected enclosure, it reduces cable clutter across the floor, enhancing both safety and the professional appearance of a space. The black finish offers a neutral, unobtrusive look that blends with most flooring materials. As a critical component of a structured floor distribution system, the FSR FL-1300-BLK provides a permanent and reliable endpoint, ensuring that power and data are available exactly where needed in today's dynamic and technology-dependent work environments.
