A hotel door guard is a secondary latching device mounted on the inside face of an entry door and its frame, used in addition to the primary lockset and deadbolt. Once the occupant has closed the door, the guard is engaged from inside and restrains the door so that it can only be opened a short distance, letting the person inside see and speak with a caller before releasing it.

This unit carries a dull chrome finish, the low-sheen, non-mirror plating commonly specified so that guard hardware blends with satin chrome lock trim, hinges and strikes rather than standing out against them. It is surface-applied hardware: the two halves fasten to the door face and the jamb with screws, so it can be added to an existing opening without mortising the door or replacing the lock.

Guards of this type are specified in volume for guest rooms and rental units, where a simple, inside-only restraint is wanted on every door and the hardware has to hold up to constant use by people who have never seen it before.

Key Features

• Secondary security latch that supplements, rather than replaces, the lockset and deadbolt on an entry door
• Restrains the door in a partially open position so a caller can be seen and spoken to before the door is released
• Engaged and released from the interior side only, by the occupant of the room
• Two-piece design: one half fastens to the face of the door, the mating half to the jamb or door stop
• Surface-mounted with screws, so no mortising or boring of the door is required for a retrofit
• Dull chrome finish for a low-sheen appearance that coordinates with satin chrome door trim
• Plated metal hardware, suited to the repeated daily cycling a guest-room or apartment door sees
• Sold individually, so quantities can be matched to the door count on a job

Applications

• Hotel and motel guest room entry doors
• Apartment and multifamily unit entry doors
• Dormitory and student housing room doors
