Don-jo EL115605 Full Lip Strike Bright Brass

Product Description

The DON-JO EL115605 is a full lip strike with a 2-1/4 inch full lip and a 1-1/2 inch extended lip, finished in bright brass. It is designed for use in door frame installations where a standard box strike does not provide adequate latch engagement or frame protection. This strike mounts into the door frame and accepts the latch bolt, allowing the door to close and latch securely. It is installed by locksmiths, door hardware specialists, and finish carpenters during new construction or retrofit work. The bright brass finish coordinates with matching brass locksets and door hardware on commercial and residential applications.

The EL115605 is suited for interior and exterior door applications requiring an extended lip strike to protect the door frame from latch bolt contact. The extended lip design bridges gaps common in hollow metal and wood frame installations where the door stop profile creates a latch alignment challenge. Sold individually, it fits standard latch bolt preparations and is commonly used in light commercial and residential door hardware projects.

Key Features

• Full lip design provides added frame protection compared to a standard half-lip strike
• 1-1/2 inch extended lip accommodates offset latch conditions and door stop profiles
• Bright brass finish suitable for coordination with brass-finish locksets and trim hardware
• Compact profile at 0.5 inch height keeps the strike flush with the frame surface
• Sold as individual unit for single-door replacement or new installation work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation strike for standard residential and light commercial door latch bolt preparations requiring a full lip extended strike configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a locksmith, door hardware technician, or qualified carpenter. The door latch and associated hardware should be fully disengaged and the door secured in an open position before frame mortise work begins. Strike placement must align precisely with the latch bolt centerline to ensure proper engagement. Follow applicable local building codes and manufacturer fastener requirements for frame material type.
