Don-Jo CV-86-C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Don-Jo CV 86 C conversion plate used for on a commercial door?
It covers over a hole left in a door or frame after hardware comes off. The CV 86 C is a steel plate measuring 8 inches by 1-1/4 inches, so it suits a narrow strip of cutout rather than a full lock prep, which is why it gets used when a latch or lock component is swapped and the old cutout has to be closed up cleanly instead of the door being replaced.
2) Will an 8 x 1-1/4 inch Don-Jo conversion plate cover a standard 161 lock bore?
No. At 1-1/4 inches across, the CV 86 C is too narrow to cover a 2-1/8 inch cylindrical bore, which is what a 161 prep uses. It is sized for a narrow edge or face cutout, such as a strip left by removed latch or strike hardware. For a bored hole you need a wrap around or filler plate wide enough to bridge 2-1/8 inches.
3) What finishes does the Don-Jo CV 86 C conversion plate come in?
Two: PC prime coated and SL silver coated. Prime coated is the one to order when the plate is going to be painted to match the door or frame; silver coated is the option for leaving as installed on doors with existing aluminum or brushed hardware nearby.
4) Is the Don-Jo CV 86 C heavy enough for a high traffic commercial opening?
It is a commercial rated part built from 1/4 inch gauge steel, not a light sheet metal cover. That gauge is why it holds its shape on doors that get kicked, carted into, and used all day in schools, hospitals, and warehouses rather than dimpling the first time something hits it.
5) Can I paint a Don-Jo conversion plate to match my doors?
Order the PC prime coated version. It comes primed for topcoat, so it takes building paint directly and disappears into a painted hollow metal door or frame. The SL silver coated version is meant to be left as is.
6) How many Don-Jo CV 86 C plates come in a pack?
The CV 86 C ships in a shelf pack of 10. That works in your favour if you are standardizing a run of openings during a hardware changeover, since a single pack covers ten doors; for a one door repair you are still buying the ten.
