Prime-line U 9567 Latch Door Edge Guard Brass

Product Description

The PRIME-LINE PRODUCTS COMPANY U 9567 is a brass latch and door edge guard designed to reinforce and repair the edge of a door at the latch point. It measures 1 inch in length by 4-1/2 inches in height and fits doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick. The guard installs over the door edge to strengthen the latch area, helping to resist forced entry. It works with mortise or drive-in style latches and accommodates any lockset or deadbolt backset configuration. Locksmiths, carpenters, and general contractors install this hardware on both interior and exterior doors as a repair or upgrade measure.

This door edge guard is suited for residential and light commercial applications on wood or metal doors. It is typically installed where the door edge has become damaged, weakened, or where added security at the latch zone is required. Because it accepts any backset, it fits a wide range of existing lockset and deadbolt hardware without requiring additional modifications. The package includes the door channel, two 10x1 inch combo screws, two 10-32 hex nuts, and four 8x5/8 inch Phillips truss head screws, providing all hardware needed for a complete installation.
