Don-jo EL104DU Full Lip Strike Dark Bronze

Product Description

The DON-JO EL104DU is a full lip strike plate with a 4-inch extended lip, designed for use in door frame hardware applications where standard strikes fall short. Measuring 4.5 inches in length and 2.25 inches in width, this strike accommodates door frames that require additional lip coverage to properly capture the latch bolt. The dark bronze finish provides a consistent appearance against common door hardware finishes. Locksmiths, door hardware installers, and general contractors install this type of strike as part of cylindrical lockset and deadbolt assemblies in both new construction and retrofit applications.

The EL104DU is suited for residential and light commercial door openings where an extended lip strike is required to bridge a gap between the door stop and the frame edge. It is a practical solution for out-swinging doors or frames with oversized rabbets that a standard lip strike cannot cover. The dark bronze finish aligns with oil-rubbed and dark bronze finish locksets commonly specified in residential and commercial projects.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith, door hardware installer, or finish carpenter. Before installation, confirm the door is in a closed and secure position and remove any existing strike hardware. Strike plates should be mortised flush into the door frame jamb for proper latch engagement, and fasteners should be appropriate for the jamb material. Follow local building codes for commercial applications that may specify strike reinforcement or additional fastening requirements.
