Don-Jo BF-161-PC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole does the Don-Jo BF-161 filler plate cover?
The BF-161 is a 2-5/8 inch diameter steel plate, sized to cover a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with overlap onto the door face. If the hole you are covering is larger than 2-5/8 inches across, this plate will not conceal it and you need a larger diameter filler.
2) Will a hole filler plate cover an old mortise lock cutout or just a bored hole?
Round filler plates like the BF-161 cover round bore prep only. A mortise pocket is a rectangular cutout in the door edge and face and needs a mortise lock filler or a wrap plate, not a 2-5/8 inch disc. Use the BF-161 where a cylindrical lock or deadbolt was pulled and a clean round hole is left behind.
3) What finishes does the Don-Jo BF-161 come in?
Five: brass plated, chrome plated, duronodic brown coated, prime coated, and silver coated. Prime coated is the one to order when the door is getting painted, since it takes finish paint directly and disappears into the door. Brass or chrome plated match existing lever and deadbolt trim on the same opening.
4) Is 16 gauge steel heavy enough for a filler plate on a high traffic commercial door?
Yes. The BF-161 is 16 gauge (.060) steel and rated commercial, so it stays flat against the door face rather than oil-canning or denting when carts and traffic hit it. That is the difference between this and a thin residential cover plate that dishes in after a season.
5) How many hole filler plates come in a pack of Don-Jo BF-161?
They ship in a shelf pack of 10. For a building turnover where you are pulling old cylindrical locks off a run of doors, one pack covers ten openings. If you are filling both faces of a through-bored door, count two plates per opening.
6) Do I need one filler plate or two per door?
A cylindrical lock bore goes all the way through the door, so a hole shows on both faces. Cover both with a 2-5/8 inch plate each and the door reads finished from either side. One plate only works if the opposite face is against a wall or already covered by other trim.
7) Can I use a Don-Jo BF-161 on a hollow metal door as well as wood?
The BF-161 is a commercial steel plate that fastens over the face of the door, so it works on hollow metal and wood alike. What matters is the hole diameter, not the door material: anything up to 2-5/8 inches across gets covered.
