Don-Jo LP-312P-SL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo LP-312P latch protector work on an inswing storefront door?
No. The LP-312P is built for out-swing openings, where the latch edge is exposed from outside and can be pried. On an inswing door the latch is protected by the frame stop instead, so you would want an inswing-style protector rather than this one. Check which way the door swings from outside the building before ordering: if it pulls toward you, it's out-swing and this is the right style.
2) Does the LP-312P fit an Adams Rite latch lock on an aluminum storefront door?
That is exactly what it's cut for. The LP-312P is made for Adams Rite latch locks on aluminum storefront doors, so the plate covers the latch area on a standard narrow stile aluminum door without fouling the lock. It measures 2-5/8 inches by 12 inches, which is the footprint that clears the narrow stile face on that kind of door.
3) How thick is the steel on the Don-Jo LP-312P latch guard?
12 gauge, which the spec sheet puts at .104 inch of steel. That's the heavy end of what gets used on a storefront latch guard, and it's the reason this one holds up on a high-traffic retail or office entry where somebody has already tried a pry bar on the latch. The plate is steel throughout, coated rather than plated.
4) What finishes does the Don-Jo LP-312P come in, and which one matches bronze storefront?
Two: DU (Duronodic brown coated) and SL (silver coated). DU is the one to order against dark bronze anodized aluminum storefront, which is the most common commercial framing color. SL goes with clear/mill anodized aluminum. Both are coatings over the 12-gauge steel, not anodizing, so match them by eye to the frame rather than expecting an exact anodize match.
5) Do I need a 12-inch latch protector or is a short one enough for a storefront door?
A 12-inch plate like the LP-312P covers the full latch area plus the length above and below it, so a pry bar can't get a bite just outside the guard. Short guards only shield the latch itself and leave the door edge above and below open. On an out-swing aluminum storefront entry, where the door edge is the exposed face, the longer plate is the one that actually stops the attack. The LP-312P is 2-5/8 by 12 inches.
6) Does the LP-312P replace the lock or just cover it?
It's a guard plate only. The LP-312P mounts over the latch area of the door and shields the Adams Rite latch behind it, it does not include or replace the lock, cylinder, or latch itself. If your Adams Rite latch has failed, you need a replacement latch lock in addition to this plate.
7) Is the LP-312P sold individually or do I have to buy a box?
It ships in shelf packs of 10. For a property manager hardening one entrance that's more plates than you need in a single hit, but for a contractor or facility doing a run of storefront doors across a portfolio it means one order covers the whole building. Worth knowing before you order for a single door.
8) Is the Don-Jo LP-312P rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It's a 12-gauge steel guard built for retail storefronts, office building entries, restaurant and hospitality entrances, schools, healthcare entries, and government or municipal storefronts. It is not sized or intended for a residential wood door, which uses a different lock prep entirely.
