Don-Jo PMLP-111-EBF-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Don-Jo PMLP-111 latch protector work on an inswing door?
No. The PMLP-111 is built for out swing doors only, where the latch and strike gap are exposed on the pull side. On an inswing door the latch is already protected by the frame stop, and what you want there is an astragal or a frame-side guard instead. Check which way the door swings from the outside before ordering: if it opens toward you, the PMLP-111 is the right family.
2) Does the Don-Jo PMLP-111 pin latch protector fit a key-in-knob lock or does it need a mortise lock?
Key-in-knob and lever sets are both covered, along with most standard lock types. The PMLP-111 is a plate that shields the latch area rather than a part of the lock itself, so it does not care about function code or handing of the lockset. The anti spread pin is what does the work: it engages the frame so the door and jamb cannot be pried apart far enough to slip the latch.
3) Do I need to buy screws separately for the Don-Jo PMLP-111, or are fasteners included?
EBF fasteners come with it. EBF stands for edge bolt fasteners, which pass through the door rather than threading into the face, so the plate cannot be unscrewed from the outside. That is the point of the EBF version: a standard sex-bolt or wood-screw mount is a lot easier to defeat on an exposed exterior door. You will need to drill through the door for the bolts, so plan the install accordingly.
4) The door has an exit device rather than a knob or lever latch. Is a Don-Jo PMLP-111 the right guard?
The PMLP-111 is a pin latch protector whose Anti Spread Pin design is matched to key-in-knob locks, lever sets, and most standard lock types on outswing doors, so it suits a latch-type opening. Where the door carries a panic exit device instead, the Trimco PG8000 series covers panic guards as well as latch guards, which is the range to look at for that hardware. Confirm the lock type on the door before choosing between them.
5) How big is the Don-Jo PMLP-111 latch guard, and will 11 inches be too long next to a closer or a panic bar?
The plate measures 3 inches by 11 inches. That length is meant to cover a wide band across the door edge around the latch, so before you order, look at what else is on that face: a surface closer arm, a rim exit device end cap, or a vertical rod cover can crowd an 11 inch plate. If clearance is tight, a shorter latch guard is the way to go.
6) What gauge steel is the Don-Jo PMLP-111 latch protector, and is it strong enough for an exterior commercial back door?
12-gauge (.104) stainless steel, which is the heavy end for a latch guard and the reason it holds shape under a pry bar rather than folding. It carries a 630 satin stainless finish, so corrosion resistance is there for an exterior opening. It is classed as commercial hardware, not residential trim.
7) What else could I use instead of a Don-Jo latch guard on an outswing exit door with a panic bar?
The Trimco PG8000 Series panic and latch guards are the alternative to look at when the opening has an exit device on it, since that series is built to cover both panic and latch applications. If the door is a plain outswing with a knob or lever, the PMLP-111 with its anti spread pin and 12-gauge stainless plate is the more direct fit.
8) What is the difference between a Don-Jo PMLP-111 latch protector and a Trimco PG8000 guard?
Both are edge-mounted guards that cover the latch area of a commercial door. The Don-Jo PMLP-111 is a single 3 inch by 11 inch pin latch protector in 12-gauge (.104) stainless steel with a 630 satin stainless finish, built for outswing doors and supplied with EBF edge bolt fasteners and an Anti Spread Pin that works with key-in-knob locks and lever sets. The Trimco PG8000 is a series of panic and latch guards rather than a single part, so the Trimco route means selecting a guard from within that series to match the opening, while the PMLP-111 is one defined size and finish for an outswing latch application.
9) What finish does the Don-Jo PMLP-111 come in if I need it to match other stainless hardware?
One finish only: 630 satin stainless steel. That is the standard commercial satin stainless, so it sits alongside 630 lever sets, push plates, and hinges without looking off. If the rest of the opening is aluminum-finish 628 or brass 605, the plate will read as a different metal.
10) Can I buy Don-Jo PMLP-111 latch protectors in bulk to do a whole building?
It is packed in a shelf pack of 10, which suits a property manager or contractor hardening a run of exterior outswing doors at once. Since it mounts independently of the lockset, you can put the same plate on doors carrying different knob and lever hardware and keep one part number across the site.

    It's made of really strong stainless steel that won't rust. The 11-inch length covers both the lock and the latch, so it's a great barrier. It's designed specifically for doors that open outward, which are often less secure. It looks clean and professional on the door.
