Don-Jo MLP-111-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Don-Jo MLP-111 latch protector work on an inswing door?
No. The MLP-111 is built for outswing doors, where the latch and strike gap are exposed on the exterior face. On an inswing opening the vulnerable edge is on the other side of the stop, so an outswing guard is the wrong part there. Check which way the door swings from the pull side before ordering.
2) What size is the Don-Jo MLP-111 latch guard and will 11 inches cover an exit device latch area?
The MLP-111 measures 3 x 11 inches. The 11 inch run is what lets it span the latch area on doors with an exit device or mortise lock rather than just the small strike gap a short guard covers. Measure your available flat edge on the door face first, allowing for hinges, trim, and any vertical rod cover.
3) Will a Don-Jo latch protector fit over a door with an exit device or mortise lock trim?
Yes on both. The MLP-111 is stated compatible with exit devices, mortise locks, and escutcheon trim, so it works on the common commercial outswing configurations rather than only cylindrical locksets.
4) How thick is the steel on the MLP-111 latch guard, and is it strong enough for a high traffic commercial exterior door?
12 gauge stainless steel at .104 thickness. That is heavy plate for a latch guard, and it is the spec that matters when the concern is someone prying or shimming the latch. Rated commercial, and stainless holds up on exterior openings where a plated steel guard would rust at the fastener heads.
5) What finish does the Don-Jo MLP-111 come in, and will it match my existing door hardware?
One finish only: 630, satin stainless steel. That is the standard commercial finish on exit devices, mortise trim, and push plates, so it matches most institutional and office openings without a special order. If your building is standardized on 626 satin chrome, a 630 guard reads slightly warmer but is the usual pairing on stainless exterior doors.
6) What is the difference between the Don-Jo MLP-111 and a Trimco panic guard?
Both are latch and panic guards for protecting an exposed latch on an outswing door. The MLP-111 is a single 3 x 11 inch 12 gauge stainless plate in 630 finish. Trimco's PG8000 Series is a range of panic and latch guards rather than one size, so it is where to look if the MLP-111's 3 x 11 footprint does not suit the opening.
7) Do I still need a latch guard if the door already has an exit device?
Often yes on an outswing exterior door. An exit device latches into a surface strike on the frame, and that latch stays reachable from outside because the door swings out. The MLP-111 is made for exactly that case, covering the latch area on exit device openings, and it also suits mortise lock and escutcheon trim doors. Typical uses are office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities.
8) Can I buy Don-Jo MLP-111 latch protectors in a case for a multi-door job?
They come in a shelf pack of 10. That suits standardizing a run of exterior outswing doors across a property or stocking for service calls, rather than buying one guard at a time.
