Kaba Ilco LI-408-AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Kaba Ilco LI-408 lock indicator actually show on the door?
The LI-408 is a visual status indicator for an exit door with a deadbolt. It reads "Open" in green letters when the bolt is retracted and "Locked" in red letters when the bolt is thrown, so anyone approaching the door can see the state without testing the handle. It's an accessory to the deadbolt, not a lock itself.
2) Will the LI-408 indicator work on a 1-3/4 inch storefront door?
Yes. The LI-408 set is built for standard 1-3/4 inch (44.4 mm) doors, which is the usual commercial door thickness. It is a single-thickness accessory, so a thinner or thicker leaf is outside what it is made for.
3) Does the LI-408 work with a hook bolt, or only a straight deadbolt?
Both. The LI-408 is a deadbolt accessory that works with either a straight bolt or a hook bolt, which is what you find on most narrow stile aluminum storefront doors.
4) What comes in the LI-408 lock indicator set, and do I need anything else to install it?
Each set includes two self-adhesive header signs, two pins and two screws, plus the zinc alloy escutcheon. The pins and screws are the mounting hardware, so no separate fastener kit is needed. What it does not include is the deadbolt itself, the indicator reports the state of a bolt you already have in the door.
5) Can I add a lock status indicator to deadbolts already installed on my storefront doors, or do I have to replace the lock?
The LI-408 is sold as a replacement/add-on part, so it mounts to an existing straight or hook bolt deadbolt on a 1-3/4 inch door. You keep the lock that's in the door and add the visual open/locked readout to it, along with the two self-adhesive header signs that go above the escutcheon.
6) What finishes does the Kaba Ilco LI-408 indicator set come in?
Two: clear and dark bronze. Those are the standard anodized storefront finishes, so the indicator can be matched to the existing aluminum door frame rather than standing out against it.
7) How many doors does one LI-408 set cover?
One opening. The set carries two header signs, two pins and two screws because an exit door gets an indicator on each face, so staff inside and anyone outside both read the same status. For a bank of entrance doors, order one set per leaf you want indicated.
8) Is the LI-408 indicator durable enough for a high-traffic commercial entrance?
The escutcheon is zinc alloy, not plastic, and the set is a commercial-rated part rather than a residential one. That is the material you want on a public entrance where the door is worked all day.
