Don-Jo PLP-111-EBF Latch Protector, 630 Satin Stainless Steel (US32D)

The Don-Jo PLP-111-EBF is a heavy-duty latch protector engineered specifically for outswinging doors where the latch bolt and strike area are exposed and vulnerable to forced entry. Manufactured by Don-Jo Manufacturing from solid stainless steel at a robust 12 gauge (.104"), this latch guard delivers serious protection without the flex or give associated with lighter-gauge alternatives. The plate measures 3" wide by 11" long, providing generous coverage over the door edge and strike area. Designed to work with key-in-knob locksets, the PLP-111-EBF ships with EBF (Existing Building Fasteners) — hardware suited for retrofit and new-construction applications on outswinging door assemblies. It is finished in 630 satin stainless steel (US32D), a corrosion-resistant, low-maintenance finish appropriate for high-traffic commercial and institutional openings.

PLP-111-EBF Latch Protector — Key Features

• Heavy-Duty 12 Gauge Construction: At .104" thick stainless steel, this latch guard provides substantial resistance to prying and forced-entry attempts on outswinging door openings.
• Outswinging Door Application: Specifically designed for out-swing door configurations where the latch and strike are exposed on the exterior face, making the opening otherwise susceptible to attack.
• EBF Fasteners Included: Comes complete with Existing Building Fasteners, making the PLP-111-EBF practical for both new installation and retrofit/upgrade projects.
• Key-in-Knob Compatibility: Engineered to work alongside key-in-knob locksets — the most common commercial and light-institutional cylindrical hardware configuration — without requiring modification to the existing prep.
• Generous 3" × 11" Coverage: The wide, long plate format maximizes protection of the door edge and strike area, reducing vulnerability across the full latch zone.
• 630 Satin Stainless Steel (US32D) Finish: Corrosion-resistant and ADA-neutral in appearance, US32D is a specifier-preferred finish for commercial openings requiring durability and a clean, professional look.
• Stainless Steel Material: Inherently resistant to rust and oxidation, making this latch protector suitable for exterior, high-humidity, or coastal environments.
