Latch Gard LG120 x SF700 Door Latch Guard | 6" Narrow-Short Security Plate

The Latch Gard LG120 x SF700 is a professional-grade, high-security latch protector designed to defend out-swinging doors against forced entry. Measuring 1-3/4" x 6", this heavy-duty shield is specifically engineered for doors with narrow frames or restricted mounting space. It serves as a definitive solution for door security, providing a robust physical barrier that prevents "jimmying" or prying of the latch bolt while acting as a permanent solution for door restoration for frames previously compromised by attempted break-ins.

Constructed from heavy 12-gauge plate steel (.105" thick), the LG120 is an essential component for any solution for door surface repair. Its compact, "narrow-short" design makes it uniquely compatible with a wide range of hardware, including Type 161 cylindrical locks, Mono-Locks, Unilocks, and Integralocks. This Made in the USA security plate helps prevent expensive repairs by reinforcing the strike area and discouraging vandalism in commercial and institutional settings.

Key Features & Performance

• Broad Lock Compatibility: Precision-fit for cylindrical locks and specialized Type 161 locksets, serving as a high-performance solution for commercial door security.
  
• Tamper-Resistant SF700 Fasteners: Includes specialized carriage bolts with a flat-head design, ensuring they cannot be removed from the exterior and won't snag on clothing or weatherstripping.
• Narrow-Stile Optimization: The slim 1-3/4" width allows for installation on narrow door frames where standard guards are too bulky, acting as a permanent solution for door edge reinforcement.
• Universal Reversible Fit: The plate is fully reversible for right or left-hand openings, offering a versatile and easy-to-install solution for door restoration.
  
• Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: The .105" thick steel plate functions as a structural remodeling scar plate, shielding the latch area from physical attack and prying.
