Deltana SPE225U3 Extended Lip Strike Plate Bright Brass

Product Description

The DELTANA SPE225U3 is an extended lip strike plate finished in bright brass, designed for residential and light commercial door hardware applications. Strike plates seat into the door frame mortise and provide the receptacle for the door latch bolt, keeping the latch engaged when the door is closed. The SPE225U3 measures 2.25 inches in length and 2.25 inches in width with a profile depth of 0.3 inches, making it a compact, low-profile unit suited for standard door frame installations. The bright brass finish delivers a polished appearance consistent with traditional and transitional interior hardware sets. Locksmiths, carpenters, and general contractors are the primary installers of this component.

This strike plate is appropriate for interior and exterior door frame applications where a standard or extended lip latch strike is required. The extended lip design accommodates slight door-to-frame gaps, helping maintain positive latch engagement without requiring frame modification. It is sold individually and suits single-door installations in residential entryways, interior passage sets, and light commercial door openings where bright brass hardware is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith, finish carpenter, or general contractor. Before installation, ensure the door is secured in an open position and remove any existing strike plate hardware from the frame. The strike plate should be mortised flush into the door frame jamb and secured with the appropriate wood screws for the frame material. Verify latch alignment before final fastening to ensure smooth latch engagement without binding.
