ZKTeco MB10-VL Metal Enclosure with Lock & Acrylic Front

Description

A district office of a state department in Jaipur has had four section officers in twenty months. Each one inherits the same staff register, the same dusty almirah, and the same ZKTeco MB10-VL biometric attendance machine bolted to a wall near the records room. Every transition someone tries to “reset” the device, someone else unplugs it during a long weekend, and the deputy who has to sign off the muster ends up reconciling by memory. This lockable metal enclosure closes off the casual access that’s the actual root cause.

Why a government office terminal needs a lock more than most

Long-tenure staff turnover means a face terminal is everyone’s responsibility and no one’s. The MB10-VL ends up exposed, fiddled with, and occasionally disconnected by whoever wanted the socket for a phone charger. A keyed metal enclosure converts “whoever wants to” into “whoever has the key” — usually the section officer or the office superintendent. That’s all it takes to stop most of the unexplained downtime.

The build, in plain language

Cold-rolled mild steel, single-piece chassis, powder-coated matte black so a wipe-down restores the look after years of dusty file movement. The acrylic front is optical-grade, clear over the MB10-VL screen and fingerprint sensor. A cam-style lock with two keys per unit secures the front panel. Made in India by AmpleTrails, finished here, no imported parts to chase replacements for.

Dimensions designed, not guessed

This metal enclosure is cut for the ZKTeco MB10-VL chassis — outline, screen window, fingerprint platen cut-out and rear power/LAN reliefs all sit at their factory positions. No homemade brackets, no foam stuffed inside to take up slack. The acrylic front sits flush.

Through power cuts, no missed punches

A Mini UPS bay sits beneath the device cradle. A 12V Mini UPS drops in and the MB10-VL keeps logging through every outage, including the long load-shedding stretches some districts still see. With Mini UPS continuity the muster matches across the day — no manual write-in, no asterisks against unverified punches.

Mounting

Four rear-plate slots accept 8mm anchors for the standard plastered-brick office wall. The base is flat for a desk install at the deputy’s counter if you’d rather keep the device under direct sight. Either way, the lockable acrylic front faces the user squarely.

What buyers usually ask before ordering

Will this metal enclosure fit my ZKTeco MB10-VL exactly?
Yes — every cut-out is mapped to the MB10-VL chassis, including the screen, fingerprint platen and rear ports.

Is the ZKTeco MB10-VL included?
No — this is the metal enclosure only. The MB10-VL and Mini UPS are sold separately.

We have GeM orders — can you bill against a department?
Yes. We supply against government office orders with GST invoice; speak to us for purchase-order workflows.

Does the lock survive long-term in a dusty office?
Cam-style lock barrels are sealed enough for typical office dust. We’ve had units in field for years with no barrel replacement.

Is the powder-coated finish scratch-resistant on file-handling furniture?
It’s matte powder-coat, so light scratches don’t show. Heavy edge knocks will leave a mark; mount above usual file-trolley height.
