Description

STI STI-9701 Wire Guard Damage Stopper Protector

Overview

The STI-9701 is a patented wire guard designed to protect smoke detectors from vandalism, accidental impact, and misuse in controlled environments. Constructed from 9-gauge steel with a web-like octagonal shape, it provides physical barrier protection while maintaining quick access for routine detector maintenance and testing. The guard fits nearly all smoke detector models on the market without requiring hardware modifications or installation of additional mounting components.

Compatibility

Universal fit design covers standard smoke detector housings across the market. The octagonal web structure accommodates detectors from most manufacturers without custom modifications. Verify that your specific detector model fits within the guard's opening before ordering. Not designed for outdoor use; suitable only for controlled interior environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is quick and requires no tools or permanent hardware changes. The guard design allows simple removal for routine detector maintenance, testing, or replacement without disassembly. Environmental operating range: -40°F to 212°F (-40°C to 100°C). Stainless steel models (medical-grade 304) are ideal for hygienic or corrosion-prone environments; standard steel models feature a corrosion-resistant linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) coating. The 9-gauge steel construction and impact-resistant design are difficult to break under normal use.
