Don-jo LP207SL Latch Protector Outswing Door Silver Plated

Product Description

The DON-JO LP207SL is a latch protector designed for outswing door applications where the latch bolt and strike area are exposed and vulnerable to forced entry. The unit measures 2.75 inches wide by 7 inches tall and installs over the door edge to cover the latch mechanism gap between the door and the frame. Finished in silver plated, it blends with standard commercial and residential hardware. Locksmiths, door hardware installers, and security contractors install this type of protector as a straightforward hardening measure on outswing doors in both new construction and retrofit situations.

The LP207SL is suited for outswing doors in commercial and light-duty institutional settings where latch exposure creates a vulnerability. It is commonly specified during door hardware upgrades, security assessments, or as part of a forced-entry-resistance package on hollow metal or wood outswing doors. The silver plated finish allows it to coordinate with common satin chrome and similar finish hardware already on the door.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware installer. Ensure the door is in a closed and secured position before marking fastener locations, and verify that the protector does not interfere with door frame clearances or weatherstripping. Fastener selection should be appropriate for the door material and thickness. Follow applicable local building and security codes when installing hardware on fire-rated or access-controlled door assemblies.
