Access Control Pedestal Extension for Gate Installations

Not every gate installation is simple.

Some projects need:

• Multiple access control devices

• Better mounting flexibility

• Extra spacing

• Cleaner layouts

• Better positioning for drivers and pedestrians

That is where the All Security Equipment Pedestal Extension comes in.

The ASE FAS-PEDEXT was designed to give installers more flexibility when building an access control pedestal setup.

The video explains how this extension helps installers mount devices more efficiently while keeping installations clean and professional.

What Is the ASE Pedestal Extension?

The ASE FAS-PEDEXT pedestal extension is an accessory designed to expand mounting options on pedestal installations.

Traditional pedestal setups can limit:

• Device placement

• Mounting depth

• Reader positioning

• Intercom spacing

This extension solves those issues by giving installers more room and more mounting flexibility.

It works well for:

• Card readers

• Gate keypads

• Telephone entry systems

• Access control readers

• Intercom systems

• Security accessories

For installers working on custom access control layouts, that flexibility can make a major difference during installation.

Why Pedestal Flexibility Matters

Every property is different.

Some sites need:

• Vehicle access control

• Pedestrian access

• Multiple readers

• Additional devices

• Better driver reach positioning

Without enough mounting space, installers often need to improvise on-site.

That can lead to:

• Crowded installations

• Poor device placement

• Difficult maintenance access

• Less professional appearance

The pedestal extension helps avoid those problems by allowing installers to build a cleaner and more organized setup from the start.

Built for Access Control Installers

The ASE pedestal extension was designed specifically for professional installers and gate technicians.

According to the product video, the extension was built using real installer feedback from the field.

The system is made from:

• Aircraft-grade aluminum

• Outdoor-rated materials

• Durable powder coated finishes

The Blacksmith-style powder coated finish helps improve long-term durability for outdoor access control applications.

This is important because access control pedestal systems are exposed to:

• Rain

• Heat

• Wind

• Sun exposure

• Daily vehicle traffic

Outdoor durability matters for long-term performance.

Designed for Professional Gate Installations

Professional gate installations often include multiple security and access devices.

The pedestal extension helps installers mount:

• Card readers

• Intercom systems

• Gate keypads

• Telephone entry systems

• Security accessories

• Additional control devices

Many installers use these systems alongside access control products to create more complete gate entry systems.

For larger properties, flexibility during installation can save time while improving the final appearance of the project.

Better Than Standard Pedestal Setups

Standard pedestal setups sometimes create challenges during installation.

A traditional gooseneck pedestal may not provide:

• Enough depth

• Enough mounting positions

• Proper device spacing

• Good visibility angles

The ASE pedestal extension gives installers more control over device placement.

This is especially useful when working with:

• Multiple card readers

• Larger intercom systems

• Dual-device installations

• Additional security accessories

Installers can create a cleaner layout while keeping devices easier to access and maintain.

Great for Card Readers and Intercom Systems

Modern gate systems often rely on multiple access devices working together.

These may include:

• Card readers

• Telephone entry systems

• RFID readers

• Security cameras

• Keypads

• Intercom systems

The pedestal extension helps create better spacing between devices while improving accessibility for drivers and pedestrians.

Many installers pair these systems with video surveillance solutions to improve perimeter security and visitor management.

Ideal for Commercial and Residential Applications

The pedestal extension works well for:

• Gated communities

• Commercial buildings

• Apartment complexes

• Industrial properties

• Parking facilities

• Residential driveways

Whether the project uses a pad mount pedestal or a gooseneck pedestal setup, the extension adds more installation flexibility.

This is especially useful for larger commercial projects where multiple devices need to fit within a limited area.

Made in the USA

Like all ASE pedestal products, the pedestal extension is proudly made in the USA.

For installers, that means:

• Reliable quality

• Consistent manufacturing

• Durable materials

• Better long-term support

The extension was designed specifically for real-world access control installations rather than generic mounting applications.

Works with Existing Pedestal Systems

The pedestal extension is designed to work with the 3 different All Security Equipment's pedestal options we offer: 

This allows installers to upgrade or expand systems without replacing the entire pedestal setup.

It can help improve:

• Existing gate installations

• Access control upgrades

• Reader positioning

• Device spacing

• Future expansion flexibility

This makes the extension useful for both new installations and retrofit projects.

Access Control Pedestal Applications

An access control pedestal can support many types of security hardware.

Common applications include:

• Vehicle access systems

• Gate automation

• Parking access control

• Visitor management systems

• Commercial entry systems

• Security gate installations

Many installers combine pedestal systems with:

• gate operators and automation systems

• access control accessories and pedestals

• Telephone entry devices

• Security cameras

• RFID access systems

Combining multiple security layers creates a more professional and reliable installation.

Dual Height Pedestals and Multi-Device Layouts

Some projects require more advanced pedestal configurations.

Dual height pedestals are often used when installers need:

• Driver access

• Pedestrian access

• Multiple readers

• Additional devices

The pedestal extension helps support these more complex layouts by adding mounting flexibility and spacing options.

This can improve usability while helping installers create a cleaner final design.

Why Installers Like This Upgrade

For installers, small improvements can make a big difference on the job site.

The ASE pedestal extension helps:

• Simplify installations

• Improve device placement

• Reduce layout limitations

• Create cleaner installs

• Improve long-term serviceability

Instead of fighting with limited mounting space, installers can design the layout around the project’s actual needs.

That leads to:

• Better installation quality

• Faster setup

• Easier maintenance

• Happier customers

Final Thoughts

The ASE pedestal extension gives installers a smarter and more flexible way to build access control pedestal systems.

By improving mounting options and device placement, it helps create cleaner and more professional installations for gate automation and perimeter security projects.

For installers working with card readers, intercom systems, and access control devices every day, that extra flexibility can save time while improving the final result.
