Push Button Collar for Flush and Projecting Head Mounting in Elevator Panels
The Push Button Collar is a precision-moulded mounting component that fits around the body of flush head and projecting head push button assemblies at the point where the button exits the panel face, providing a clean, finished transition between the button actuator body and the panel surface. The collar serves both a functional and an aesthetic role: it provides a mechanical stop that correctly positions the push button body relative to the panel face, and it creates a professional, finished appearance at each button cutout position that enhances the overall visual quality of the elevator operating panel.
The collar's mechanical function is to control the installation depth and panel-face position of the push button assembly relative to the panel cutout. Correctly positioned flush head buttons must sit level with or fractionally below the panel surface, while projecting head buttons must protrude by the specified amount to provide the correct actuator travel and tactile feel. The collar provides the mechanical reference that achieves this correct positioning consistently across all button positions in the panel, without the need for individual adjustment at each cutout during panel assembly.
In elevator operating panel aesthetics, the collar contributes to the uniform, professional appearance of the button face by providing a consistent, symmetrical surround at every button position that hides the panel cutout edge and the gap between the button body and the panel material. This detail is particularly important in stainless steel and decorative panel finishes where any irregularity at button positions is immediately apparent to passengers.
The collar is available in variants for flush head and projecting head button types, with dimensional specifications matched to the button body diameters used in the corresponding Esbee push button range. Replacement collars are available for maintenance use when existing collars are damaged, discoloured, or require replacement as part of a panel refurbishment.
For elevator panel builders, installation contractors, and maintenance engineers who need correctly specified collars for flush and projecting head button installation in elevator operating panels, this component provides the precise dimensional specification and finished appearance that professional elevator panel assembly requires.
