Don-Jo DON-AF-261-SL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Don-Jo AF-261 filler plate actually do on a door frame?
The AF-261 is a flat steel cover plate for the frame cutout left behind when an electric strike comes out. Pull a strike for a hardware change, a downgrade to mechanical hardware, or a cutout that ended up in the wrong spot, and you're left with a hole in the jamb. The AF-261 covers it. It is not a strike and it has no keeper, no solenoid, and no wiring, so it does not latch anything on its own.
2) Will the AF-261 cover my electric strike cutout, and what size is it?
The AF-261 face plate is 4-7/8 inches long and 1-1/4 inches wide. Measure your jamb cutout before ordering: if the opening is longer than 4-7/8 inches or wider than 1-1/4 inches in any direction, the plate will not cover it and you need a larger filler. That 1-1/4 inch width is the narrow-frame dimension, so it suits a hollow metal jamb cut for a standard narrow electric strike, not a wide-lip or mortise-strike prep.
3) Is the AF-261 a replacement electric strike or just a cover plate?
Just a cover plate. If your access control door still needs to release electrically, you need an actual electric strike sized to the frame prep, not the AF-261. Buy the filler plate when the strike is coming out for good, when you're blanking an unused prep, or when a cutout needs to be closed up while you source the correct strike.
4) What finishes does the Don-Jo AF-261 come in?
Two coated finishes: SL silver and DU duronodic brown. Silver reads as the standard aluminum-look jamb finish and duronodic is the dark bronze tone, so pick whichever matches the frame paint or the surrounding hardware on the rest of the openings. If you're patching one door in a building where every other frame carries dark bronze hardware, the DU is the one that disappears.
5) How thick is the steel on the AF-261 filler plate?
13 gauge, which is .095 inch steel. That matters because a filler plate sits on the strike side of the frame where the door and anyone testing it will hit it. Thin sheet flexes and can be pried; at .095 the plate stays rigid across the opening it covers. It is steel throughout, coated in either finish.
6) Are Don-Jo AF-261 filler plates sold individually or in a multi-pack?
They come as a shelf pack of 10. That works in your favor if you're a locksmith or facility maintenance shop closing out multiple openings, or standardizing a building where several frames have abandoned strike preps, but it does mean a single-door repair leaves you with nine spares on the shelf.
7) Can I use the AF-261 on an aluminum storefront frame?
The plate's usable size is what decides it, not the frame material. At 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches it fits a narrow prep, which is the geometry you see in hollow metal jambs and narrow aluminum stiles alike. Hold the plate over the cutout and confirm the full opening falls inside those two dimensions. Anything larger, including a wide ANSI 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 lip prep that has been enlarged in the field, will show edges and needs a bigger plate.
8) Is the AF-261 rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It's built for the electronic access control openings in office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouse, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities, which is where you find abandoned electric strike preps in the first place. The 13 gauge steel body is the reason it holds up in those traffic levels rather than denting.
