The Max Guard For Panic Bars is a protective accessory designed to mount above panic bars to prevent external damage and tampering. Constructed from 16 gauge electro-galvanized steel, this guard provides a physical barrier for panic exit devices on commercial or residential doors. The unit measures 26" in length, 4-3/4" in width, and 3/4" in depth. It features a black powder-coated finish for a consistent appearance. This guard is compatible with Lockey USA panic bars and is intended for use in gate or door security applications where protection of the exit device is required. The 16 gauge electro-galvanized steel construction provides a rigid shield that covers the top of the panic bar mechanism. By mounting this guard above the panic bar, it creates a physical obstruction that limits access to the device from the exterior side of the door or gate. This component is suitable for various door hardware configurations where the panic bar is exposed to potential impact or unauthorized contact. The black finish integrates with standard door hardware aesthetics. The installation involves mounting the guard directly above the existing panic bar hardware, ensuring the device remains protected while maintaining its intended functionality for emergency egress.
