Kwikset 83846-015 Asa Strike Satin Nickel

Product Description

The KWIKSET 83846-015 is an ASA strike plate finished in satin nickel, designed for residential door hardware installations. A strike plate reinforces the door frame at the latch or deadbolt catch point, providing a hardened receiver that keeps the door securely latched when closed. This component is a direct hardware accessory used alongside knob sets, lever sets, or deadbolts in standard residential door frames. Locksmiths, carpenters, and general contractors install this type of strike as part of new construction or replacement hardware service. The satin nickel finish delivers a clean, neutral appearance that coordinates with a wide range of door hardware finishes.

The 83846-015 is suited for residential entry doors and interior passage doors where an ASA-pattern strike is required. At 4.9 inches in length and 1.9 inches in width, it fits standard ASA strike cutouts found in most pre-hung door frames and rough-cut strike mortises. This strike is sold individually as a single unit, making it practical as a direct replacement when an existing strike is worn, damaged, or misaligned with updated hardware.

• Satin nickel finish resists tarnish and coordinates with brushed metal hardware

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by locksmiths, carpenters, or qualified handymen as part of door hardware service. Before installation, confirm the existing door frame mortise matches the ASA strike footprint to avoid additional chiseling. Use a chisel and hammer or oscillating tool to square the mortise as needed, and secure the strike with the appropriate wood screws for the frame material. No specialized power tools or permits are typically required for a direct strike plate replacement.
