Sliding Door Locking Devices

Many detention facilities replace their old sliding door locking devices with brand new ones. While this may be a good solution for some, retrofitting the locking device can be a much more cost-effective and easier solution for many jails.

If you can answer yes to any of the following questions, we may be able to retrofit your sliding door locking device:

  • Do your sliding door locking devices require daily repairs?
  • Does your site require extra staff because some doors don't always lock securely?
  • Do you have old sliders that are worn out?

Our sliding door locking device upgrade kits will replace the operating mechanism of your old locking devices and give you a new maximum security device. Because we use the existing heavy steel components such as the steel housing, door lock post, and door guide, we can reduce the down-time for the facility during the conversion process and maximize your cost savings versus a complete replacement. Your retrofitted sliding door locking device will be the same quality as a new one, plus you can still benefit from a full one-year warranty on the locking device.
