Don-Jo DEST-104-DU – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo DEST-104 fit a standard ASA strike prep in a hollow metal frame?
Yes. The DEST-104 is an ASA-dimension strike measuring 4-7/8 inches in height with a 4 inch overall size, so it drops into a standard commercial ASA (T-strike) frame prep without new cutting. The 4 inch figure is measured from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip, not edge to edge, so check your lip projection against that reference before ordering.
2) What does the extended lip on this Don-Jo strike actually do for me?
The extended lip carries the latch further out past the frame face, which is what you want when the door is set back from the frame edge or there is trim, a deep reveal, or a wide gap that would otherwise let the latch drag on the frame instead of riding the lip into the pocket. The DEST-104 pairs that extended lip with a dimple profile to guide the latch into full engagement.
3) I am standardizing strikes across a building. Can I use the DEST-104 on every door?
It works on any opening already prepped for a 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inch ASA strike, which covers most cylindrical and mortise lock installations in hollow metal frames, so it is a reasonable standard for a commercial portfolio. Order one finish across the site to keep the openings consistent. Where the frame is prepped for a smaller full-lip or T-strike rather than ASA, the DEST-104 will not drop in without reworking the frame.
4) I need a strike for a pair of doors with no mullion. Is the DEST-104 the right part?
No. A face-mounted ASA strike like the DEST-104 needs a frame jamb to mount into. For an inactive leaf on a double door, look at the Detex 92 Strike Kit, which is a double-door strike kit from the Detex 90 Strike Series and includes tamper resistant fasteners.
5) What strike should I use on a double door with a vertical rod exit device instead of the Don-Jo DEST-104?
The DEST-104 is an extended lip dimple ASA strike sized 4-7/8" x 4" in 18-gauge (.050) steel, cut for a standard ASA lock prep in a single door frame. For a pair of doors where there is no frame jamb to mount an ASA strike into, the Detex 92 Strike Kit is built for double door applications and ships with tamper resistant fasteners. Pick the DEST-104 when a latch is engaging a framed jamb, and the Detex 92 kit when the strike has to serve a double door opening.
6) Can the Don-Jo DEST-104 be used to strike against a pipe or round post?
No. The DEST-104 is an extended lip dimple ASA strike with a flat face intended for a standard commercial ASA frame prep, and its extended lip is dimensioned from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip so it can reach across a frame return. If the latch has to land on a round pipe or tubular post, the Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike made for that mounting condition.
7) What is the dimple on a dimple ASA strike for?
The dimple is a shallow depression formed in the strike face that gives the latchbolt a defined seat once it drops in. It reduces door rattle and keeps the latch from creeping back out under pressure. On the DEST-104 it is combined with the extended lip, so you get both the longer reach across the gap and the positive latch seat.
8) Is 18-gauge steel heavy enough for a strike on a high-traffic entry?
18-gauge (.050) steel is the commercial-grade thickness for a face strike, and the DEST-104 is built for commercial rather than residential service. That is the material you want on office entries, school corridors, healthcare and multi-tenant doors where the latch cycles hundreds of times a day. For an apartment or interior residential door it is more strike than the opening needs.
9) What finishes does the Don-Jo DEST-104 come in, and will they match my existing hardware?
Three finishes: 630 satin stainless steel, 622 matte black, and DU duronodic brown coated. 630 is the standard match for the satin stainless levers and exit devices on most commercial openings, 622 suits black hardware packages, and DU lines up with dark bronze storefront and aluminum entrance hardware.
10) Is this a replacement strike only, or does it come with a strike box and screws?
The DEST-104 is the strike plate itself, an extended lip dimple ASA face strike. If your frame does not already have a dust box or the old one is damaged, order a strike box separately. Existing ASA frame preps normally retain the box behind the plate, so a straight face-plate swap is the usual repair.
11) My latch is hitting a round post, not a flat frame. Will this ASA strike work?
It will not. The DEST-104 has a flat ASA face that needs a flat jamb to sit against. For latching into a pipe or round post, the Trimco 1260P Pipe Adapter Strike from the 1260 Series is the strike built for that condition.
12) Is the Trimco 1260P a drop-in replacement for a Don-Jo DEST-104?
They are not interchangeable. The Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike from the 1260 Series, supplied as the strike only for pipe mounting. The DEST-104 is an ASA-dimension strike, 4-7/8" high by 4" overall, that drops into a standard commercial ASA frame cutout and is offered in DU, 622 and 630 finishes. Replacing an existing ASA strike in a hollow metal frame calls for the DEST-104 profile, not the pipe adapter.
13) For a facility where strike screws keep getting attacked, does the DEST-104 come with security fasteners?
The DEST-104 is a commercial-grade 18-gauge (.050) steel ASA strike supplied in DU, 622 and 630 finishes, and it mounts with standard strike screws into the frame prep. Where the fastener itself has to resist tampering, the Detex 92 Strike Kit is furnished with tamper resistant fasteners as part of the kit. Use the DEST-104 for a standard ASA replacement and the Detex kit where fastener security drives the choice.
