Don-Jo 2-SDS-8-SL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 Super Strike work with a deadbolt, or is it for a latch?
Deadbolt only. The 2-SDS-8 has a single hole cut for the deadbolt, so it reinforces the frame at one bolt point. If the opening has a lockset latch above the deadbolt too, one hole won't cover both, and you'd want a strike with two cutouts.
2) How big is the Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 deadbolt strike, and will it cover damage on my frame?
It measures 8 inches by 1-3/8 inches, so it spans well above and below the bolt cutout and covers a frame face that has been pried or chewed up around the original strike. The 1-3/8 inch width is the piece to check first: the flat face of your frame has to be at least that wide for the strike to sit flush.
3) Can a Detex 92 strike kit be used in place of a Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 deadbolt strike?
No - they solve different openings. The Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 Super Strike is a security strike for deadbolt applications, 8 inches high by 1-3/8 inches wide, in 13-gauge (.095) ferrous material with a single latch hole, so it reinforces the frame at one deadbolt point. The Detex 92 Strike Kit is a double door strike kit supplied with tamper resistant fasteners, from the 90 Strike Series, and is built for a pair of doors rather than a single deadbolt strike prep. If the opening is a single door with a deadbolt, the 2-SDS-8 is the part that matches the prep; if you are striking a double door assembly, the 92 kit is the one addressed to that condition.
4) The frame on my opening is a pipe or tube section, not a standard hollow metal jamb - what strike do I use?
That is the condition the Trimco 1260P Pipe Adapter Strike is made for; it is a pipe adapter strike in the 1260 Series and is furnished as the strike only, so anything else the opening needs is ordered separately. The Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 Super Strike is a flat security strike, 8 inches by 1-3/8 inches in 13-gauge (.095) ferrous material with one latch hole, and it is intended to lay against a frame face for deadbolt reinforcement rather than to adapt a round section. Match the strike to the frame geometry first, then to the bolt.
5) How thick is the metal on the Don-Jo Super Strike?
13-gauge, stated as .095 inch, in ferrous material. That's a heavy plate compared with the thin stamped strike that ships in a deadbolt box, which is where most kick-in failures start. It's the reason this one is sold as a security strike rather than a plain replacement.
6) Is the Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 strike sold individually or in a pack?
It ships in shelf packs of 10. That suits a property manager or contractor hardening a run of unit doors or a floor of offices in one pass, rather than someone fixing a single door.
7) I need a strike for a pair of doors, not a single deadbolt jamb. What should I look at instead?
The 2-SDS-8 is a single-bolt jamb strike and won't solve a double door. For a pair, the Detex 92 Strike Kit is a double door strike kit from the 90 Strike Series and comes with tamper resistant fasteners.
8) Can I use the Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 on a pipe or round-section frame?
No. It's a flat 8 by 1-3/8 inch plate meant for a flat jamb face. For a round pipe frame, the strike you want is the Trimco 1260P Pipe Adapter Strike from the 1260 Series, which is made to adapt to that profile.
9) I need tamper resistant fasteners with my strike - is the Trimco 1260P or the Detex 92 the right call?
Of those two, the Detex 92 Strike Kit is the one described as shipping with tamper resistant fasteners, and it is a double door kit in the 90 Strike Series. The Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike from the 1260 Series and is supplied as a strike only, so it is a different scope of supply entirely. Note that the Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 Super Strike answers the security question a different way - through the material rather than the fastener - using 13-gauge (.095) ferrous stock over an 8 inch height so the reinforcement spans well above and below the deadbolt bolt hole.
10) I am standardizing deadbolt strike reinforcement across a commercial property - which of these carries across the most doors?
The Don-Jo 2-SDS-8 Super Strike is the general-purpose choice for that program: it is a commercial security strike for deadbolt applications with a single latch hole, 8 inches high by 1-3/8 inches wide in 13-gauge (.095) ferrous material, sold in shelf packs of 10 and offered in BP prime coat and SL silver finishes so one part number covers both paint-to-match and as-installed frames. The two peers are condition-specific rather than fleet parts - the Detex 92 Strike Kit is a double door kit in the 90 Strike Series, and the Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike in the 1260 Series. Expect to carry the 2-SDS-8 as the standard and the others only where the opening calls for them.
11) Is a Don-Jo Super Strike rated for commercial doors or just residential?
Commercial. Don-Jo classifies the 2-SDS-8 as commercial door hardware, and it's used on office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouse, multi-tenant residential, and municipal buildings. Nothing stops it going on an apartment entry door, but it's built for the traffic and abuse of a commercial opening.
12) Will a Don-Jo Super Strike stop a door from being kicked in on its own?
It hardens one half of the problem. The 8 inch, 13-gauge ferrous strike spreads the bolt load across a longer section of jamb instead of the two inches a standard strike covers. What it doesn't address is the bolt throw itself or the door edge, so on a high-risk opening it's normally paired with long screws into the framing behind the jamb and, where the door edge is weak, an edge wrap.
