Kwikset 820049-009 Square Corner Deadbolt Strike Gunmetal

Product Description

The KWIKSET 820049-009 is a square corner deadbolt strike plate finished in gunmetal, designed to accept the bolt of a residential deadbolt lock. The strike plate mounts to the door frame and provides the reinforced catch point that keeps the door secured when the deadbolt is engaged. At 2 inches in length and 1.3 inches in width, this is a compact, standard-profile plate suitable for typical residential door frame installations. Locksmiths, door hardware installers, and general contractors install this component as part of new deadbolt installations or as a replacement when an existing strike is worn or damaged.

This strike plate is used in residential applications where a square corner profile is required. The square corner design fits door frames with standard square-edged mortise pockets, as opposed to radius-corner frames. The gunmetal finish coordinates with matching door hardware in contemporary and transitional style settings. It is sold individually and is appropriate for single-door installations on exterior entry doors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith or a qualified door hardware installer. Before replacing or installing the strike plate, ensure the door is open and stable. Use a chisel and drill to prepare or clean out the mortise pocket in the door frame to match the square corner profile of this plate. Fasten securely with appropriately sized screws to ensure the strike plate provides full engagement with the deadbolt bolt throw.
