Ives 84003842 Kick Plate Bright Brass 8x42 Inches

Product Description

The IVES 84003842 is a kick plate designed to protect the lower section of a door from scuffs, dents, and daily foot traffic wear. Measuring 8 inches wide by 42 inches long and just 0.1 inches thick, it mounts flush to the face of a door and is finished in Bright Brass for a clean, professional appearance. This type of protection plate is a standard specification item in commercial and residential construction, installed by finish carpenters, locksmiths, and general contractors during door hardware rough-in or final trim. The low-profile design keeps the door surface intact under heavy use.

Kick plates are commonly specified on high-traffic entry doors, corridor doors, and service doors in commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and multi-family residential properties. The 42-inch length suits full-height protection on standard interior and exterior door applications. This plate ships as a single unit and is intended for surface-mount installation on wood, metal, or hollow-core doors where the lower rail is subject to repeated contact.

Installation Notes

Kick plates are typically installed by finish carpenters or door hardware technicians using screws appropriate for the door material. Confirm door thickness and lower-rail clearance before drilling to avoid penetrating through-hardware or weatherstripping. For fire-rated door assemblies, verify that the kick plate is approved for use on the rated door per the door manufacturer listing and applicable fire codes. No special tools beyond a drill and screwdriver are typically required.
