Deltana Enterprises 5 in. Solid Brass Security Door Guard Satin Nickel

Solid Brass Door Guard

The Deltana Enterprises 5 in. Solid Brass Security Door Guard in Satin Nickel provides a secondary locking point for residential entry doors. It allows the door to open partially for ventilation or identification while the guard remains engaged. The solid brass construction resists corrosion and forced entry attempts. This hardware suits homeowners adding a visible security layer without replacing the primary lockset.

Sustained Daily Operation

The brass body and steel arm maintain alignment through repeated swing cycles without binding or loosening. Satin nickel finish resists tarnish and scratching from keys or rings during everyday use. The pivot mechanism tolerates temperature shifts and humidity without seizing. No lubrication schedule is required for normal residential traffic.

Surface Mount Installation

The guard mounts with supplied screws into the door and frame faces, requiring only a drill and screwdriver. Misaligned screw holes are the most common issue; pre-drilling pilot holes prevents splitting wood or stripping threads. Ensure the arm clears the stop moulding when the door is fully closed. No mortising or specialised tools are needed.
