Essex HET-K-ADA Hand-E-Tap Programmable Touch Switch, ADA Wheelchair Icon, Black Bezel

Provide consistent, accessible door control in security-conscious commercial environments with the Essex Electronics Hand-E-Tap Programmable Touch Switch. This ADA-compliant door push plate uses proprietary piezoelectric technology so users can activate doors with a light tap — even with a gloved hand, elbow or cane — improving throughput and reducing wear. Built for high-use, harsh conditions, the stainless steel, vandal- and weather-resistant bezel delivers dependable performance while the field-programmable audio and illumination feedback makes it easy to confirm activation in noisy or low-light settings.

Engineered for integrators, the HET-K-ADA includes a 1 SPDT relay rated at 8A and supports 12/24V AC/DC inputs, enabling direct control of electric strikes, maglocks, automatic doors and other access control hardware. Its single-gang mounting and laser-marked wheelchair icon simplify installation in offices, healthcare, transit, and retail security systems. Ideal for access control, security, surveillance and building monitoring projects, the Hand-E-Tap offers a rugged, configurable solution backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
