The Loops Heavy Duty Door Security Chain is designed for homeowners and tenants seeking an extra layer of physical security to control door access. Measuring 195.5mm in length, this robust restrictor allows you to partially open your door to safely identify visitors or accept deliveries without the risk of an intruder forcing their way in. While it provides significant peace of mind and acts as a strong deterrent, it is important to note that this device is intended as a supplemental security measure and should be used in conjunction with primary deadbolts or multi-point locking systems.

Yes, the finish is durable, but for longevity, we recommend installing it on doors that are protected from direct heavy rain under a porch or awning.
Yes, each unit comes with the necessary hardware to mount the chain securely to your door.
This model is specifically designed for inward-opening doors. Compatibility with outward-opening doors may require custom mounting or hardware not included.
The device measures 195.5mm in length, providing a standard range of movement for residential security.
The silver finish is designed to be corrosion-resistant for indoor home environments.
Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the track to ensure smooth movement.
Check the mounting screws to see if they have vibrated loose over time and tighten them firmly.
Verify that the door frame mount and the door-side track are perfectly aligned according to the installation instructions.
To install, ensure you have a standard drill and appropriate screws for your specific door material (wood, composite, or metal). Align the mount on the door frame and the slide track on the door panel, ensuring they are perfectly parallel to prevent binding. Once installed, periodic maintenance includes cleaning the track with a dry cloth and applying a light silicone-based lubricant to the slide channel every six months to keep the movement fluid. Inspect the mounting screws annually to ensure they remain tightened and secure against the door structure.
