Door Loop Stainless Steel Exposed Mounting Access Control Cable Line Protector Defender Keep access control and signal cables protected at door hinges with a durable, visible door loop designed for exposed mounting. This stainless steel cable defender guides cables between door and frame, reducing wear and exposure while maintaining reliable operation of locks, card readers, intercoms, and other access devices. Key benefits Protects cables from abrasion and bending fatigue to extend service life of power and data lines. Reduces risk of damage from repeated door movement and from external interference or tampering. Exposed mounting makes retrofits simple and avoids cutting into frames, saving installation time. Stainless steel construction provides longterm strength and resistance to normal environmental wear. Low profile, neat appearance keeps cabling organized and accessible for maintenance. What it does Serves as a protective channel that routes cables between a door and its frame while allowing full door movement. Prevents cable snagging and crushing at the hinge area, improving reliability of connected access control equipment. Offers a tamperresistant cover that helps conceal and shield wiring without limiting service access. Compatibility and function Designed for access control systems, electric strikes, magnetic locks, card readers, exit devices, intercoms, and door sensors. Suitable for interior or exterior swing doors where exposed mounting is acceptable. Works with standard lowvoltage power and data cables used in security and access installations. Material and performance Durable stainless steel construction for consistent mechanical protection and longterm use. Engineered to maintain cable routing under normal door cycles while minimizing friction and stress on conductors. Resistant to bending and deformation from repeated opening and closing motions. Installation Exposedmount design installs directly to the door and frame using standard mounting hardware and common hand tools. Ideal for retrofit jobs where mortising is not desired or possible. Accessible cover allows inspection and cable changes without full disassembly. Practical use scenarios Office building main entrance: Protects the wiring for a card reader and electric strike at a use entry, reducing maintenance and downtime. Retail storefront retrofit: Provides a fast, noninvasive solution to route and protect power and data lines for a access control installation without cutting into an aluminum frame. Residential gate or service door: Shields lowvoltage cables for intercoms and gate controllers from wear while preserving door function. Why choose this door loop Simple, reliable protection for critical access cables. Exposed mounting minimizes installation work while keeping wiring organized and serviceable. Stainless steel construction delivers durable mechanical protection for everyday use. Note on selection Verify compatibility with your door type, hinge layout, and cable bundle size before ordering to ensure proper fit and operation.
