Kwikset 83028-024 T Strike Bright Brass

Product Description

The KWIKSET 83028-024 is a T strike plate finished in bright brass, used to reinforce the door frame at the latch or bolt contact point in residential door hardware installations. Sold as a single unit, this strike accepts standard latch sets and deadbolts and is designed for straightforward mortise or surface installation into a door jamb. At 0.07 pounds it is a lightweight component, and its compact profile keeps it low-profile in the door frame. HVAC and general contractors, locksmiths, and finish carpenters typically handle strike plate replacements during door hardware upgrades or security improvements.

This T strike is suited for residential interior and exterior door applications where a standard latch or deadbolt needs a properly aligned strike to engage. It is commonly installed during new door hardware installation, door frame repair, or when upgrading from a mismatched or worn strike. The bright brass finish coordinates with matching bright brass door hardware sets. Sold individually, it fits single-door applications requiring a T-style strike geometry.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a locksmith, finish carpenter, or general contractor. Before replacing or installing a strike plate, ensure the door is unlatched and hardware is not under load. Use a chisel to mortise the jamb to the correct depth so the strike plate sits flush with the door frame surface. Fastener selection should match the jamb material and local building requirements.
