Bell System LCP Laser Cut Vandal Resistant Audio Door Entry Panel

Bell System LCP Laser Cut Vandal Resistant Audio Door Entry Panel

The Bell System LCP is a laser cut vandal resistant audio door entry panel. Bell says it offers even greater protection than its VRP panels and will resist most attacks of vandalism. It is meant for vulnerable entrances where the panel may be subject to high traffic or the chance of vandalism, and Bell recommends the VRP and LCP panels for its BSX isolating exchange systems.

The front-plate is an overlapping bezel and a removable plate, both cut by laser from the same sheet of 2.5mm 316 marine grade stainless steel. That leaves a gap of just 0.3mm, which Bell says rejects implements that could be used to force the panel from its box. The bezel is permanently secured to the back-box. The removable plate fixes to the bezel and back-box with countersunk A2 stainless steel security bolts, and the specialist removal tool is supplied.

Choosing the right option

Choose the number of push-buttons you need, one for each station. Bell's ordering advice is to include an extra push-button should a Tradesmen or Services button be required, so six flats with a trades button need an LCP7. This page lists 1 to 26 buttons and larger sizes of 28, 29, 31, 32, 33, 37 and 44. The price list gives no flush or surface choice for the LCP.

Common questions

How is the LCP different from the VRP panel?

Both are 2.5mm 316 marine grade stainless steel. The LCP adds an overlapping bezel and a removable plate laser cut from the same sheet, with a gap of just 0.3mm. Bell says the LCP offers even greater protection than the VRP and will resist most attacks of vandalism.

Do I need an extra button for trades?

Only if you want a trades button. Bell asks you to include an extra push-button should a Tradesmen or Services button be required, and to count it in the size you order. For example, six flats plus a trades button would be an LCP7.

Will the stainless steel tarnish?

Bell uses 316 marine grade stainless steel, but says panels can still be prone to tarnishing in some coastal locations or in areas of industrial pollution. If the building is near the coast or in an industrial area, check that the panel suits the site before ordering.

How is the LCP front plate fixed?

The removable plate is fixed to the bezel and back-box with countersunk A2 stainless steel security bolts. They need a specialist tool to remove, and Bell supplies that tool with the panel. The bezel itself stays permanently secured to the back-box.
