The Max Guard For Panic Bars is a protective accessory designed to mount above panic bars on commercial or residential doors. This guard serves to shield the panic bar mechanism from external damage and unauthorized tampering. Constructed from 16 gauge electro-galvanized steel, the guard is finished with a silver powder coating. The unit measures 26" in length, 4-3/4" in width, and has a depth of 3/4". It is compatible with Lockey USA panic bars and is intended for installation on gates or doors where additional protection for the exit device is required. The electro-galvanized steel construction provides a solid barrier, while the powder-coated finish offers a consistent appearance. This guard is specifically engineered to be mounted directly above the panic bar, ensuring that the exit device remains shielded from external contact. It is suitable for various door hardware configurations where the panic bar is exposed to potential impact or interference. The installation process involves mounting the guard above the existing panic bar hardware to provide a layer of protection for the device.
