Delaney 8" x 34" Kick Plate with Screws

Base metal changes with the finish. The 630 satin stainless steel plate is stainless steel. The brass finishes, bright brass, satin bronze oil-rubbed and the satin nickel plating, are solid brass underneath. For a high-traffic entry or a wash-down area, stainless is the one that shrugs off cleaners and salt; solid brass is the pick when you are matching existing brass or bronze trim on the opening.

Trimco's kick plate series are the direct alternatives, offered as the KA0038, KA0050 and KA0064 series. The Delaney plate is an 8 inch by 34 inch kick plate supplied with screws, in brass or steel base metal, and comes in 605 Bright Brass, 619 Satin Nickel, 630 Satin Stainless Steel and 613 Satin Bronze Oil-Rubbed. If a door program is already standardized on Trimco, the KA series covers the same protection role at the bottom of the door; if the finish schedule calls for oil-rubbed bronze or bright brass to match existing trim, the Delaney plate carries those finishes.

No. Trimco's KA038 630 Series is sold as an armor plate in satin stainless steel, while the Delaney 8 inch by 34 inch plate is a kick plate. A kick plate covers the low band of the door where carts and shoe traffic hit it, which is what an 8 inch height is sized for; an armor plate is the taller protection plate that runs well up the face of the door, typically for openings taking heavier abuse. Ordering an armor plate to replace an 8 inch kick plate will not line up with the existing fastener pattern or the finish break on the door.

Four: 605 bright brass, 619 satin nickel, 630 satin stainless steel, and 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed. If you are standardizing a building, 630 is the usual match for commercial lever sets and closers, 613 for dark bronze storefront and residential-style entries, and 605 for polished brass trim packages.

No. Mounting screws come with the plate. Nothing else is required for a standard wood or hollow metal door beyond a drill and the right bit; the plate mounts to the face of the door below the lock, bottom edge set just above the door bottom so the sweep or shoe still moves freely.

Height decides it. A kick plate like the 8 inch Delaney covers the bottom of the door where carts and boots hit it, and stops well below the lock. An armor plate runs much taller, up to and past the lock area, for doors that take abuse from loaded carts or gurneys the full height of the lower panel. If your damage is all in the bottom foot of the door, the 8 inch plate is the right part; if the dents run up to the handle, look at an armor plate such as the Trimco K0050 Series instead.

Trimco is the main alternative we carry, in the KA0038, KA0050 and KA0064 Series kick plates, plus the K0050 Series armor plate in 630 satin stainless. The practical difference is that Delaney sells this one as a fixed 8 x 34 inch plate with screws included, so there is nothing to specify beyond finish. The Trimco series are ordered by series and size, which is what you want when the door is a nonstandard width and 34 inches will not work.

630 satin stainless steel is the code you want, also written US32D. It is the standard commercial satin stainless finish, so it will read the same as the plates and lever trim already on your other openings. On the Delaney 8 x 34, that finish is the stainless base metal rather than plated brass, so scratches from carts do not expose a different colored metal underneath.

Two routes cover it. The Delaney 8 inch by 34 inch kick plate is offered in 630 Satin Stainless Steel on a stainless steel base metal, so the plate is stainless through and not a plated finish over brass. Trimco's KA0038, KA0050 and KA0064 series are the alternative kick plate families, and Trimco's K0050 630 Series protection plates are catalogued in satin stainless steel as well. For an opening where the balance of the trim is 630, either brand keeps the finish consistent; the Delaney plate ships with its screws.

Yes, because the series is what carries the plate's size range. Trimco separates its kick plates into the KA0038, KA0050 and KA0064 series, so specifying by brand alone is not enough to get a plate that matches an existing 8 inch by 34 inch cutout. The Delaney kick plate is specified the other way around, by its finished dimension of 8 inch by 34 inch, with finish as the only choice left to make. When cross-referencing a Trimco plate on a drawing, confirm the series line before assuming a like for like swap.

Yes, with room to spare. The plate is 8 inches on the short dimension, so on a standard door it sits entirely in the lower panel and does not reach the lock or the bottom rail hardware. Set the bottom edge above the sweep or shoe fasteners so nothing binds and the sweep can still be replaced without pulling the plate.
