Don-jo LELP208SL Latch Protector Electric Strikes Silver

Product Description

The DON-JO LELP208SL is a latch protector designed for use with electric strike installations where a lever-style lockset is present. Measuring 8 inches in length and 4 inches in width, this plate covers the latch bolt area on the door frame to prevent forced entry attempts and protect the strike pocket. The lever cutout accommodates standard lever trim, allowing the hardware to sit flush without obstructing lever operation. Finished in a silver coated surface treatment, it is appropriate for commercial and light institutional door openings. Licensed locksmiths, door hardware installers, and security contractors are the typical trade professionals handling this type of installation.

This latch protector is suited for outswing door applications where an electric strike is mounted in the frame and lever-handle locksets are used. It is commonly installed in commercial office buildings, multi-tenant residential properties, and institutional facilities where access control hardware is present. The plate reinforces the strike area against shimming or pry attacks and is sold individually as a single unit, with case packaging available in quantities of 10.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed locksmiths or qualified door hardware technicians. Disengage power to the electric strike before beginning work on the door frame. Secure the plate using appropriate fasteners for the frame material and verify the lever trim passes cleanly through the cutout before final tightening. Follow applicable local building and fire codes governing access control hardware installations.
