Product SKU: Hikvision DS-KAB323-W1
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-KAB323-W1 Face Access Terminal Rain Shield is a protective wall-mount accessory designed for compatible Hikvision face access terminals, including DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 and DS-K1T510 series devices where supported. It helps angle the terminal at a 30° tilt while adding a protective cover around the device, making it useful for entry points where glare, light rain, wall position or user approach angle can affect daily access control use. The rain shield supports cleaner wall mounting and helps create a more practical installation for compact face recognition terminals. It is best suited to offices, apartment entries, warehouses, retail sites, schools, gates and commercial access control points where the terminal needs better physical protection and improved user-facing positioning.
Key Capabilities
Protective Rain Shield
The DS-KAB323-W1 provides a protective cover for compatible Hikvision face access terminals, helping reduce direct exposure and giving the device a cleaner fitted appearance at access-controlled entry points.
30° Tilted Wall Mounting
The bracket supports a 30° tilt angle, helping position the terminal more naturally for users approaching the door, particularly where the wall location is not directly front-facing.
Compatible Terminal Support
This accessory is suited to selected DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 and DS-K1T510 series devices, making it useful for projects using compact Hikvision face access terminals.
Wall Mount Installation Support
The rain shield supports wall mounting for compatible access terminals, helping installers achieve a tidier and more secure mounting arrangement at doors, gates and controlled entries.
Compact Protective Accessory
With its compact format and protective housing role, the DS-KAB323-W1 is best used where the terminal needs added protection without installing a larger enclosure or custom mounting solution.
Best For
- Face Access Terminal Installations: Suitable for compatible DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 and DS-K1T510 series terminal wall mounting.
- Entry Doors and Reception Areas: Useful where the face access terminal needs a cleaner user-facing angle and a more finished installation.
- Sheltered Outdoor Entries: Practical for appropriate doorways or semi-exposed areas where additional rain shield protection is preferred.
- Apartment and Commercial Access Points: Helps keep face terminal installations tidy at shared entries, offices, retail sites and building access points.
- Wall Locations with Approach Angles: A good option where the access terminal needs to face users more directly rather than sitting flat against the wall.
Why Choose the DS-KAB323-W1
The DS-KAB323-W1 is a useful accessory when a compatible face access terminal needs better positioning and a more protected wall-mount finish. A common mistake is installing face terminals completely flat on a side wall, which can make the user approach angle less comfortable and reduce the overall look of the installation. The 30° tilt helps the terminal face the user more naturally, while the rain shield design gives extra physical coverage around the device. For access control projects supplied through Security Wholesalers, this accessory is best selected when the terminal model, mounting surface and user approach direction have already been confirmed.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Choose this rain shield when the face access terminal needs a 30° angled wall mount or extra cover around the device. If the terminal must sit flat on the wall, confirm whether a standard mounting plate is more appropriate.
Compatibility Tip: Confirm the exact terminal model before ordering. This accessory is intended for selected DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 and DS-K1T510 series devices, not every Hikvision access terminal.

Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need a 30° angled wall mount and rain shield for a compatible DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 or DS-K1T510 series face access terminal.
- Choose a different accessory if: You need a flat mounting plate, flush-mount box, larger protective shield or bracket for a different Hikvision access terminal series.
- Check before ordering: Confirm the terminal model, wall orientation, wiring path, weather exposure and whether the 30° tilt suits the way users approach the entry point.
FAQs
- What is the Hikvision DS-KAB323-W1 used for?
The DS-KAB323-W1 is used as a rain shield and angled wall mount accessory for compatible Hikvision face access terminals. It helps protect the terminal and position it at a 30° tilt, which can improve usability at access-controlled doors and wall-mounted entry points.
- Which terminals are compatible with the DS-KAB323-W1?
The DS-KAB323-W1 is intended for selected Hikvision DS-K1T323, DS-K1T344 and DS-K1T510 series devices where supported. Compatibility should always be checked against the exact terminal model because Hikvision access terminal brackets are not universal across every series.
- Does the DS-KAB323-W1 angle the terminal?
Yes. The DS-KAB323-W1 supports a 30° tilt angle, which can help the terminal face users more naturally when it is mounted on a side wall or offset from the user’s approach path. This can make daily access control use feel more comfortable.
- Is the DS-KAB323-W1 a full weatherproof enclosure?
No. The DS-KAB323-W1 is a rain shield and mounting accessory, not a sealed enclosure that changes the environmental rating of the terminal. For outdoor or semi-exposed installations, check the access terminal’s own protective rating and the site’s exposure before installation.
- What is the DS-KAB323-W1 made from?
The DS-KAB323-W1 is made from SGCC and PC materials. This gives it a compact protective structure suited to wall mounting compatible access terminals while keeping the accessory lightweight and practical for everyday installation work.
- What are the dimensions of the DS-KAB323-W1?
The DS-KAB323-W1 measures 119.6 × 51 × 30.42mm and has a listed net weight of approximately 110.8g. For installations supplied through Security Wholesalers, the wall space, terminal body size and cable path should be checked before fitting it.
- When should I choose this rain shield instead of a flat mount?
Choose the DS-KAB323-W1 when the terminal needs to face users at an angle or when extra cover around the device is preferred. A flat mount may be better when the terminal is already installed directly in front of users and does not need angled positioning.
- What should be checked before installation?
Before installation, confirm the face access terminal model, wall orientation, mounting height, user approach direction, cable entry, weather exposure and whether the 30° tilt improves or worsens the user experience at that entry point.
