Don-Jo DEST-158-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Don-Jo DEST-158 fit a standard ASA strike prep in a hollow metal frame?
Yes. The DEST-158 is cut to the standard ASA pattern at 4-7/8 inches in height, so it drops into an existing ASA (T-strike) mortise prep without reworking the frame. The 1-5/8 inch dimension is measured from the center of the screw hole out to the end of the lip, which is what gives it the extended reach past the frame face.
2) What is an extended lip strike for, and when do I need one instead of a standard lip?
An extended lip carries the latch further out past the frame face so the bolt rides onto the ramp instead of catching on trim, a thick door stop, or a frame that sits proud of the wall. The DEST-158 gives you 1-5/8 inches measured from the screw hole center to the lip end. If your latch is already engaging cleanly and the frame is flush, a standard-lip ASA strike is the simpler swap; reach for the extended lip when the latch is scraping or the door has to close over an offset.
3) Can I use the DEST-158 to strike a pair of doors with no center mullion?
No. The DEST-158 is a single ASA frame strike, so it mounts in a jamb and serves one active leaf. For a double door where the latch has to catch the inactive leaf, look at a purpose-built double-door strike kit such as the Detex 92 Strike Kit, which is supplied with tamper resistant fasteners for that application.
4) Will the DEST-158 replace the strike that came with my cylindrical lockset?
If the frame is already prepped for an ASA strike, yes. The DEST-158 matches the 4-7/8 inch ASA pattern that commercial cylindrical and mortise locks are prepped for, so the screw holes and mortise line up. It will not retrofit a small 2-3/4 inch residential T-strike prep without enlarging the cutout.
5) Can a Detex 92 strike kit be used in place of the Don-Jo DEST-158?
No, they solve different problems. The Don-Jo DEST-158 is an extended lip dimple ASA strike, 4-7/8 inches tall with a 1-5/8 inch width measured from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip, made from 18-gauge (.050) steel and intended to drop into a standard ASA strike prep in the frame. The Detex 92 Strike Kit is part of the 90 Strike Series and is a double door strike kit supplied with tamper resistant fasteners, so it is the piece you reach for on a pair of doors where the latch engages the inactive leaf rather than a prepped frame. If the opening is a single door with an ASA cutout, the DEST-158 is the match.
6) Is the DEST-158 strike heavy enough for a high-traffic commercial entry?
It is 18-gauge (.050) steel and rated by Don-Jo for commercial use, which is the gauge you want on an office, school, or healthcare corridor door that cycles all day. For a residential interior door it is more strike than you need, but it will not hurt anything.
7) What finishes does the Don-Jo DEST-158 ASA strike come in?
Three: 630 satin stainless steel, 622 matte black, and DU duronodic brown coated. For standardizing across a building, 630 is the one that matches most commercial lever and exit hardware; DU is the match for dark bronze aluminum storefront and older duranodic frames.
8) I need a strike that works with a pipe or round post rather than a flat jamb. Is this the right one?
It is not. The DEST-158 is a flat ASA frame strike and needs a flat jamb face and an ASA mortise to sit in. For a round post or pipe column, the Trimco 1260P pipe adapter strike from the 1260 Series is the part built for that condition.
9) What is the difference between the Trimco 1260P and the Don-Jo DEST-158 strike?
The Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike from the 1260 Series, supplied as a strike only, so it is used where the latch has to engage a pipe or round post rather than a flat frame face. The Don-Jo DEST-158 is a flat ASA-pattern strike, 4-7/8 inches tall by 1-5/8 inches from the screw hole center to the lip end, formed in 18-gauge (.050) steel for standard commercial frames. Choose the 1260P for a pipe application and the DEST-158 for a conventional ASA-prepped opening.
10) I need a strike for a pair of doors with tamper resistant screws - is the DEST-158 the right part?
For a pair of doors, the Detex 92 Strike Kit is the one built for that condition: it is a double door strike kit that ships with tamper resistant fasteners, from the 90 Strike Series. The Don-Jo DEST-158 is a single extended lip dimple ASA strike for a standard ASA frame prep, offered in DU Duronodic brown coated, 622 matte black and 630 satin stainless steel to match surrounding hardware.
11) What does the dimple on this ASA strike do?
The dimple is a formed depression in the strike face that the latchbolt or the deadlatch plunger seats into, holding the door tight against the stop and reducing rattle. On the DEST-158 it is part of the ASA-pattern extended lip, so you get that seating action along with the longer lip reach.
