Ives 482B26D Solid Brass Door Guard Satin Chrome

Product Description

The IVES 482B26D is a solid brass door guard finished in satin chrome (26D). Door guards provide a secondary security layer, allowing a door to be opened slightly for visual verification before granting full entry. This hardware is typically installed on residential and light commercial doors by carpenters, locksmiths, or general contractors. The 482B26D measures 5 inches in length, 2.6 inches in width, and 1.5 inches in height, making it a compact and unobtrusive addition to most standard door setups. The satin chrome finish offers a clean, neutral aesthetic that coordinates with a wide range of architectural hardware.

This door guard is suited for residential entry doors, hotel room doors, and light commercial applications where controlled partial opening is required. It is sold individually and is well-suited for single-door installations where a surface-mounted chain or bar-style guard is the preferred security method. The solid brass construction provides durability in high-contact environments.
