This document provides information on home security solutions from Armor Concepts. It discusses how standard doors and locks provide little resistance to forced entry. Armor Concepts offers several patented door security and jamb repair solutions that provide real protection before intruders enter, including Door Jamb Armor which features wrapping technology for maximum strength. The solutions are designed to be installed easily and help prevent kick-ins and repair existing damage.

2. It takes an intruder under
10 seconds to kick in a door.
85% of all forced entries into homes and apartments are
through doors. Deadbolts alone offer little resistance to a quick
kick. Alarms work after intruders have already broken in and
with police response times often greater than 20 minutes,
thieves are usually long gone before help arrives.
If they are not home, residents lose precious valuables and
are left with costly repairs. Home invasions, break-ins when
residents are at home, can prove much more costly. And
statistics show that intruders are likely to return and cause the
same damage again, unless something is done to stop them.
Armor Concepts provides REAL security that works
before intruders enter.

and windows will save you time,
money and possibly much more.
We were victims of the home security
myth that alarms prevent intrusions.
These solutions were designed by
an engineer to protect our properties
from door kick-ins because nothing
else worked. False security cost us
dearly, so you can always count on
honest representation of what our
solutions will or will not do.
Our patented, proven, and trusted
solutions are installed in more than
3,000 apartment complexes and
countless homes across the United
States and Canada.
3. Simple Break-Even Analysis
The actual costs of kick-ins are greater than many property owners realize.
Regardless of the neighborhood, doors get kicked in every day by intruders, angry spouses, vandals, tenants
forgetting their keys, or people looking to settle a score. With repair costs often exceeding $500, the cost of
broken doors quickly adds up if you manage apartments or other multi-dwelling units, where it can happen
several times a month. Add in the potential cost of lost tenants or lawsuits and it’s much less expensive to
armor your doors and put an end to kick-ins. Our solutions also repair existing kick-in damage and will help
prevent future occurrences. Simply put, it will cost you less to use these products than it will not to use them.
Kick-ins are costing youmoney.

7. Door Jamb Armor was designed by an engineer and features
wrapping technology, for the maximum possible strength. Door Jamb
Armor reinforces all of the key weak points on a door. Other products reinforce
one key point (the lock side jamb only), leaving other points to break and allowing
intruders to enter at will. No competitive product comes close and anything less will
cost you more in the long run!
1Wrapping
Technology
We describe Door Jamb
Armor as a set of sleeves
because they actually wrap
around the jamb. This
design gives Door Jamb
Armor maximum strength
because the jamb is being
secured by screws that go
through two pieces of steel.
While flat plates or L-shaped
pieces will reinforce the jamb
they cannot provide the
same strength unless the
thickness of the steel used
is increased substantially,
which could prevent the
door from closing properly.
3Hinge
Protection
Armor Concepts is the only
company that provides
protection for the hinge side
of the door. Why? Because
we kept having our hinges
kicked in once we reinforced
the jamb and door.
Without hinge protection,
intruders will still get in!
2Jamb Protection
Repair
The jamb is almost always
the first thing to break
when a door is kicked.
Wrapping technology not
only provides the best
protection but also allows
you to repair even the most
severely damaged jambs.
4Door
Protection
People question whether
the Door Shields are
necessary when using
steel doors. The picture
above shows what 3 or 4
kicks will do to your door
when only the jamb has
been reinforced.

ProtectionSide Light Doors
Doors with side lights present significant challenges for security. The primary reason is that there is no stud to help secure the Jamb and
Hinge Shields. Our solution uses multiple pieces to secure the door to the jamb and the jamb to the rough frame of the house. Our sets
come designed to fit side light doors with jambs that are 3/4”, 1” and 1-1/2” thick. Combo sets come complete with Ultra Door Shields*.
The inherent weakness of many side light door structures makes it impossible for any side light door product to earn our Platinum Pro-
tection designation. These products offer the best possible protection for very unsecure doors.
Lock Side Light
For doors with a single side light on the lock side of the door. These sets include our standard hinge shields, along
with a three-piece side light jamb shield. Combo sets come with Ultra Door Shields.

Double Side Light
Doors with two side lights are among the most difficult to secure since there is no stud on either side of the door. In
securing these doors we knew that we had to accomplish three things. First, secure the lock area of the jamb and
door, as we had with the original Door Jamb Armor. Since there was no stud to secure the Jamb Shield, we have
driven long screws back into the jamb. Second, we had to secure the top and bottom of the jamb, because most side
light doors are secured with small nails (the entire door may fall into your house if it were kicked). Third, we had to
secure the hinges. The result is what we believe to be the most effective way to secure a double side light door.

ProtectionDJA Sets for Thick Jambs
While standard Door Jamb Armor sets will work on most doors, we have developed solutions for the doors that are more difficult to
secure. Some older homes (built before 1950) have jambs that are thicker than the standard 3/4 jambs that are found on most doors.
Adjust-A-Jamb
For doors with jambs that are more than 3/4 thick. The Adjust-A-Jamb adjusts to fit jambs from 3/4 to 1-1/4 thick and provides the same protection
as Door Jamb Armor. This set was designed for doors with multiple deadbolts (or privacy locks) or for customers who are uncertain about their lock
spacing. The Adjust-A-Jamb combo sets come standard with Ultra Door Shields. The Adjust-A-Jamb earns our Platinum Protection designation.
11. Double Doors
Double doors are among the most difficult to secure because there is no easy way to secure the center section of the door. Our system secures the
top and bottom of the door along with the door locks and the hinges. The Double Door set comes with one Jamb Shield to secure the top of the door, a
NightLock to secure the bottom of the door, four (4) hinge shields and two (2) Ultra door shields. The Double Door solution works best on doors that are
not the primary entry point since the NightLock cannot be applied once you leave your home. The Double Door application earns our Gold Protection
designation because of the inherent weakness of most double doors.

While Door Jamb Armor is the most effective way to secure a door, some customers require a simpler solution. We developed EZ Armor
in response to calls from customers asking for a product to provide similar protection that is easier to install. Like Door Jamb Armor,
EZ Armor reinforces the jamb, hinge and lock areas on your door. However, EZ Armor pieces are L-shaped and do not wrap around the
jamb, which means that the pieces are not quite as strong as Door Jamb Armor but are much easier to install. The EZ Armor Combo set
also comes with smaller Door Shields that can be installed without removing the locks. EZ Armor has been tested and receives our Gold
Protection designation because it will provide you with protection that is superior to anything on the market, except for Door Jamb Armor.
If we could not trust EZ Armor to protect our families, we would not trust it to protect yours.
EZ Armor Combo
The EZ Armor Combo Set is second only to Door Jamb Armor in its ability to help prevent kick-ins. The set comes with an EZ Armor
Jamb, 2 EZ Hinge Shields and 2 Mini Door Shields. The EZ Armor Jamb and EZ Hinge Shields are L-Shaped pieces that attach to
the face of the door jamb and can be applied without removing the door or entirely removing the trim. The EZ Armor Jamb Shield is
48 inches long and has holes cut to fit locks that are spaced from 4 to 21 inches apart. The Mini Door Shields are effective in help-
ing to prevent the door from splitting but do not require the removal of the locks for installation and can be used without concern
for the lock backset.This set offers complete protection for your door in an easy to install package. EZ Armor can also be used to repair
the damage from an existing kick-in. The EZ Armor Combo Set receives our Gold Protection designation for its ability to effectively
secure all of the key strike points on a door.
Gold Protection
EZ Armor Jamb Shield
The EZ Armor Jamb Shield is an L-Shaped plate that attaches to the face of the door jamb. The piece does not wrap the jamb,
which makes it easier to install. The EZ Armor Jamb Shield can be used to repair existing damage and will reinforce the jamb to
help prevent future damage. The EZ Armor Jamb Shield is 48 inches long and has holes cut to fit locks that are spaced from 4 to 21
inches apart. The EZ Armor Jamb Shield receives our Silver Protection designation because testing has shown that the lock area on
the door and/or the hinges will split without the use of door and hinge protection.

Prying open patio doors is an easy way for thieves to break into a
home. Bars or sticks placed in the track do not protect your door from
being lifted out of the track! Armor Latch is a quick, effective and
attractive way to keep intruders out.
Why Sliding Door Security?
n Thieves rarely break sliding door glass. They simply lift the door off of the track.
n “Charlie bars” or sticks placed in the track do not prevent pry bar attacks.
n Sliding door locks often stop working after extended periods of use. This is a
much less expensive option than replacing the lock.
Economical, Effective Security
n Hardened steel locking pins hold sliding door securely to wall frame.
n Dual locking system prevents door from being lifted up or out.
n Can be used as a child safety lock.
Quick, Easy Installation
n Can be installed in about 10 minutes.
n Mounts on any size door.
Attractive Design
n Attractive design is barely visible on your door.

SILVER
Protection
For those who want to repair a damaged door jamb or reinforce their jamb as quickly and inexpensively as possible. FIX-A-JAMB is
simply the easiest way possible to repair and reinforce a broken door frame. Unlike the original FIX-A-JAMB pieces, these pieces are “L”
shaped and do not wrap the jamb so there is no need to cut any nails. We made the easiest and least expensive solution easier, stronger
and less expensive. All pieces are powder coated white and will leave you with a clean, finished look. While FIX-A-JAMB will make your
jamb stronger, it only receives our Silver Protection designation because other parts on your door will break if kicked.
Interior FIX-A-JAMB II
The second generation Interior FIX-A-JAMB makes fixing an interior (1-3/8) door jamb easier than ever. In about 10 minutes you can
now repair the jamb that was broken because the kids were fighting or because someone locked themselves in the bathroom. This
piece does not receive any protection designation because, while this will make your jamb stronger, most 1-3/8 doors are hollow so a
strong kick will usually split the door.
The Interior FIX-A-JAMB piece is a 24-inch long “L”-shaped piece that will work on just about any interior door jamb.

Interior FIX-A-JAMB II Multi
For Interior (1-3/8) doors with a deadbolt, the Interior FIX-A-JAMB Multi is the easiest way to repair kick in damage. This product is
great for dorm or suite rooms where deadbolts have been added for privacy. Again, this is not a security product, simply the easi-
est way to repair a bedroom or bathroom door jamb that has been damaged. This piece does not receive any protection designation
because, while this will make your jamb stronger, most 1-3/8 doors are hollow so a strong kick will usually split the door.
The Interior FIX-A-JAMB Multi piece is a 24-inch long “L”- shaped piece that will work on just about any interior door jamb and is
designed to fit locks that are spaced from 4 to 15-inches apart.
Exterior FIX-A-JAMB II
The second generation Exterior FIX-A-JAMB takes quick and inexpensive to another level.With this new piece, cutting nails during installation
is no longer necessary and yet the “L”- shaped design fully covers any damage to give you the clean, finished look that our customers
have come to expect. These pieces are made of 18 gauge steel, are 40-inches long and are secured using 7 3-1/2-Inch screws so they
can also be used to reinforce a door jamb. If you have 15 minutes and a screwdriver, you can repair and reinforce a damaged jamb.
The back leg of the FIX-A-JAMB is 3/4 long, which allows it to cover more extensive damage. While FIX-A-JAMB will make your jamb
stronger, it only receives our Silver Protection designation because other parts on your door will break if kicked.
The Exterior FIX-A-JAMB piece is 40 inches long and will fit any exterior door with locks that are spaced from 4 to 21 inches apart.

Our original FIX-A-JAMB products will still be available for situations where a jamb may be severely damaged or have a large piece missing.
The wrapping design of these pieces means that they can function properly with minimal support from the original door jamb. Both
pieces are powder coated white and will leave you with a clean, finished look. The piece can also be painted to match your jamb color.
While FIX-A-JAMB will make your jamb stronger, it only receives our Silver Protection designation because other parts on your door will
break if kicked.
Exterior FIX-A-JAMB
If you simply want to repair severe damage from a kick-in as quick as possible, then our original FIX-A-JAMB
is for you. The Exterior FIX-A-JAMB piece is a sleeve that easily slides over a damaged jamb and can be
installed in about 20 minutes.
The Exterior FIX-A-JAMB piece is 36 inches long and will fit doors with locks that are spaced from 4 to 21
inches apart.

Fixing a badly damaged interior door jamb is now an easy task. In about 20 minutes you can now repair
the jamb that was broken because the kids were fighting or because someone locked themselves in the
bathroom. Not a security product, this is simply the easiest way to repair a bedroom or bathroom door jamb
that has been damaged. This piece does not receive any protection designation because, while this will
make your jamb stronger, most 1-3/8 doors are hollow so a strong kick will usually split the door.

Base DJA Set
Base Door Jamb Armor Sets are an effective way to repair and help prevent kick-in damage. Each Base DJA Set comes
with one (1) Jamb Shield and two (2) Hinge Shields. While base sets are very effective for repairing and securing a door,
we strongly recommend purchasing combo sets, which also include a Door Shield, which will help prevent the door from
splitting when kicked. All pieces are made of galvanized steel and are powder coated so they can be painted. Base sets
do not receive the Platinum Protection designation because testing has shown that use without the door shields will likely
result in the door splitting after a few kicks, which would allow a potential intruder to gain entry.

DJA-MOR-10002 Mortise Lock DJA Set White 1 to 4 1-3/4 $79.00
Multi-Family Combos and Base DJA sets are used by many cost-conscious customers for securing their doors.While these sets may be
more effective than using individual components, they only receive our silver protection rating because each set leaves one part of the door
unprotected, which could result in an overall failure. If you are looking for real security, each of the Door Jamb Armor components is essential.
Multi-Family Combo
Multi-Family Combo sets are an effective way to repair and help prevent kick-in damage. Each Multi-Family Combo comes
with one (1) Universal Jamb Shield and two (2) Ultra Door Shields Shields. While Multi-Family Combos are very effective for
repairing and securing a door, we strongly recommend purchasing combo sets, which also include two (2) Hinge Shields,
which will help prevent the hinges from splitting when kicked. All pieces are made of galvanized steel and are powder coated
so they can be painted. Multi-Family Combo sets do not receive the Platinum Protection designation because testing has
shown that, used without the Hinge Shields, hinges can be kicked in, which would allow a potential intruder to gain entry. We
include extra 3-1/2 screws to help reinforce the hinges but testing has shown that this is not sufficient to prevent hinges
from being kicked in.

Hinge Shields®
We have made Hinge Shields available for customers that have purchased competitive products, only to
realize that their hinges are now exposed. Without jamb protection, Hinge Shields are not very effective.
However, once the jamb has been reinforced, hinge protection becomes essential if you are attempting to
prevent a kick-in. Each Hinge shield is sold individually and comes with 5, 3-1/2 screws. Hinge Shields
alone do not improve security and therefore do not receive any Protection designation.

Jamb Shields®
Replacement Jamb Shields can be used to repair a damaged jamb or to reinforce an existing or new jamb.We
strongly recommend purchasing a combo or base Door Jamb Armor set if you are trying to prevent kick-ins.
Door Jamb Armor sets include parts that will reinforce the lock area and hinges, which will break when a
door is kicked. Jamb Shields come with 8, 3-1/2 screws. Replacement Jamb Shields only receive our Silver
Protection designation because testing has shown that the lock area on the door and/or the hinges will split
without the use of door and hinge protection.
We have been very reluctant to sell our Jamb Shields separately because we know that reinforcing the jamb alone means that the door
or the hinges will break when the door is kicked. While we strive to give customers what they want, we always want to be certain that
customers know exactly what they are getting.
Before Armor Concepts, no one thought about reinforcing the hinges. “Competitive” products claim that adding screws will provide
adequate protection. Smart customers know otherwise, while others have learned the hard way.We began selling individual hinge shields
because of countless requests from customers that had purchased another product only to realize that they were not really secure.
Remember, we never thought about the hinges until intruders began kicking ours in.

Door Shields
Once the door jamb has been reinforced, the door slab becomes the weakest part of the door and will split when the door is kicked.
Alone, these pieces should be used only to cover-up damage on an existing door (without jamb reinforcement they are relatively useless
as a security device). Once the jamb is reinforced, they are an extremely important part of our overall system.
Unlike other door protectors, our Door Shields are made of galvanized steel and come with durable, powder coating, that looks great and
enables you to paint them to match the color of any door. The white pieces are difficult to see in the pictures because they are difficult to
see from a distance on the door. Door Shields alone do not improve security and therefore do not receive any Protection designation.

22. Door
Measurements
How to gather the dimensions
necessary to determine which
model of Door Jamb Armor™ will
meet your specific application.
Door thickness: This measurement represents the thickness of the door slab
between the exterior and the interior surfaces. The current Door Shield™ components are
made for doors that measure 1-3/4 inches in thickness. Doors measuring 1-3/8 inches
are generally interior doors.
Lock spacing: This measurement represents the spacing between the locking
hardware. It should be taken by measuring from the mid-point of the upper lock bolt to
the mid-point (center) of the lower lock bolt. This measurement should be 5-1/2 inches
for standard Door Jamb Armor™ consideration and from 4 to 21 inches distance from
the edge of the door to the center of the lock boltfor the universal application.
Lock back-set: This measurement represents the distance from the edge of
the door to the center of the lock bolt. This should be taken by measuring from the
edge of the door slab to the center of the lock cylinder. This measurement should
either be 2-3/8 inches or 2-3/4 inches in order for the Door Shield™ component to be
used for your application.
Interior jamb width: This measurement represents the space between the
interior edge of the door jamb to the door sealing surface (door stop). When taking this
measurement it is most important that you measure behind the weather stripping to
the point where it seats into the jamb. This measurement should be at least 2 inches. If
this measurement is considerably more or less than this Door Jamb Armor™ may not
work for your application.
Hinge length: This measurement represents the height of the hinge bracket.
Ideally this measurement should be around 4-1/2 inches. If it is greater than 5 inches,
the current Hinge Shields™ will not work for your application.
Jamb thickness: This measurement represents the thickness of the interior
jamb edge. To take this measurement a section of the vertical trim molding may need
to be removed. You can also get this measurement through the hole in the strike plate.
This measurement should be approximately 3/4-inch. If it is considerably more or less
than this, you may need to consider EZ Armor or Adjust-A-Jamb.
Side light jamb thickness: All measurements for a side light door are the
same as for a standard door, except for the jamb thickness. This is a measurement of
the jamb thickness between the door and side light. To get this measurement, measure
the width of the raised area between the door and side light. This will likely be 1 or 1.5
inches. For jamb thickness between 1 and 1.5 inches, the 1-inch side light set will work.

23. Home resident who installed EZ Armor
after a break-in – Nashville, TN
Forty-three years in this house and we’d never had a
problem until this year. While we were at church, someone
kicked in the back door and stole my wife’s mother's
wedding ring, her grandmother's wedding ring and gifts from
our grandson who died three years ago. The computers and
cash he took can be replaced. The priceless family items
cannot. We promptly got an alarm system and installed EZ
Armor from Armor Concepts. Once you put that system on
the door, it's like a steel frame and there's no way it could
be kicked in. And it worked. Sure enough, two weeks later,
the burglar came back and tried to kick the back door in
again. He though it'd be weak, but it was strong. The frame
held up and the racket attracted our nextdoor neighbor who
called 911. The burglar, who had 35 prior incidents, was
apprehended and put behind bars. We’re now installing EZ
Armor on our front door as well. – Ken Frizzell
Builder who tested Door Jamb Armor –
Memphis, TN
I own Brannon Builders in Southaven, Mississippi. I was
asked by the local Memphis television station, WREG
Channel 3, to do a “Does It Really Work?” test of Door Jamb
Armor. When the television anchor, Kris Andersen, told me
that we would be testing a product that claimed to make it
virtually impossible to kick in a door, I laughed. He asked,
“Do you think it will work?” I responded, “Not a chance!”
I have never seen anything that could keep a door from
being kicked in if someone wanted in bad enough. A few
days later we did the test. I was amazed! We kicked and
kicked and the door didn’t budge. Next, we took a police
battering ram and hit the door about 20 times. The door
began to show damage, but never opened. I just want you to
know how incredible Door Jamb Armor is. Every household
should carefully consider installing this on their home. For an
incredibly low cost, homeowners can have peace-of-mind
that is priceless. — Mark Brannon
Morris Carey, host of the nationally
syndicated On The House radio show
“This is the first entry door security product that I have seen
in 25-plus years in this industry that actually works. This is
the best new security product that I have seen in some time.”
A very pleased property manager —
Dayton, OH
I manage rental homes in the Dayton, Ohio area. Some of
the homes have been damaged by people kicking in the
doors. Your product has been installed on several homes
and was quickly tested by another attempted break-in at
two of the locations. I am glad to say that the Door Jamb
Armor held up to its name and claims, and the shoe marks
on the doors were all the evidence we needed!!! We are so
pleased with the success that we are installing this product at
all of our vacants! Not only can this protect our assets while
vacant, in addition, it can give our residents peace of mind
after they move in! Thank you for an amazing product! It
makes my job EASIER! No property should be without it!
Not only can this protect our assets while vacant… it can
give our residents peace of mind after they move in!
