Don-Jo SLP-206-SL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Don-Jo SLP-206 latch protector work on an inswing door?
No. The SLP-206 is built for outswing doors only, where the latch and strike gap are exposed on the outside of the opening. Its offset-hung profile mounts on the door and wraps the gap at the frame. For an inswing opening the latch is not accessible from outside, so a different style of protector (or none at all) is what you want.
2) What size is the Don-Jo SLP-206 latch guard, and will it cover a standard lever latch?
It measures 2-5/8 inches by 6 inches. That is the short version of Don-Jo's offset latch protector, sized to cover the latch area rather than run the full lock case height. It is stated to work with both Grade 1 and Grade 2 levers, so a typical commercial lever latch falls inside that coverage.
3) How thick is the steel on the Don-Jo SLP-206 latch protector?
12 gauge, .104 inch steel. That is a solid plate meant to resist prying and latch manipulation at an exterior opening, which is why it shows up on warehouse, storefront and municipal doors rather than light interior ones.
4) I need a longer latch guard than the 6-inch SLP-206. What should I be looking at?
The SLP-206 is the short offset model at 2-5/8 x 6 inches. If your lock case or mortise trim needs more coverage than that, stay within Don-Jo's offset latch protector line and step up to a longer offset plate in the same 12-gauge steel rather than swapping to a flat guard, since an inswing/flat guard will not sit correctly on an outswing opening.
5) What finishes does the Don-Jo SLP-206 come in for matching existing door hardware?
Three finishes are orderable: brass plated, duronodic brown coated, and silver coated. Pick the coated finishes for exterior painted or dark-bronze frames and brass plated where the rest of the trim is brass toned.
6) Is the SLP-206 a commercial-duty latch guard or a residential one?
Commercial. Don-Jo classes the SLP-206 as commercial-grade hardware, and the 12-gauge steel plate is aimed at high-traffic and forced-entry-prone openings such as schools, healthcare corridors, retail storefronts and multi-tenant buildings.
7) If I'm outfitting several outswing doors, how is the SLP-206 packaged?
It ships in shelf packs of 10, which suits a property manager or contractor standardizing a run of exterior outswing openings rather than buying one guard at a time.
