Prime Line Products Gd 52118 Inside Deadlock

Product Description

The PRIME LINE PRODUCTS GD 52118 is a heavy-duty inside deadlock designed to provide supplemental security for garage doors. It features a galvanized steel housing and a steel slide bolt measuring 7/8 inch wide by 1/8 inch thick. The lock operates exclusively from the interior, making it suitable as a night lock or vacation security measure when the garage is unoccupied or accessed only from inside. It engages directly with the slot in the vertical track of the door assembly. Fasteners are included for installation. This type of hardware is commonly installed by general contractors, handymen, and knowledgeable homeowners as part of a garage security upgrade.

The GD 52118 is designed to fit most standard residential garage doors that use vertical track systems. It is appropriate for single or double garage doors where added interior-side security is desired. Because the lock works only from the inside, it is best suited for doors that are not used as a primary entry point while the occupant is away, or as a secondary lock used alongside an automatic opener system. The included fasteners simplify installation without requiring additional hardware purchases.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a general contractor or qualified handyman. Disconnect or disengage the automatic garage door opener before installing the deadlock to prevent unintended door movement during the process. Secure the lock housing to the door panel using the included fasteners, and confirm that the slide bolt engages cleanly with the vertical track slot before completing the installation. Do not operate the automatic opener while the deadlock is engaged, as this may cause damage to the door or opener mechanism.
