Don-Jo EF-160-PC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Don-Jo EF-160 filler plate used for on a commercial door?
The EF-160 is a small steel plate that covers an existing latch cutout in the door edge when the old lock or latch is pulled out and the replacement doesn't use the same prep. It's a cover, not a strike and not a lock part, so it hides the hole and gives you a flat, paintable edge instead of an open mortise. Common on renovations where the new hardware has a different latch face than what came out.
2) Will the Don-Jo EF-160 cover a standard 2-1/4 x 1 inch latch face cutout?
The EF-160 measures 2-1/4 x 1 inches, which is the same footprint as the common commercial latch faceplate, so it fills that prep flush rather than overlapping it. If the old latch face on your door was larger than that, or the cutout got chewed out during removal, this plate won't bridge it and you need a bigger filler.
3) Is a latch filler plate the right fix, or do I need a wrap around plate?
Two different repairs. The EF-160 goes on the door edge and covers the latch mortise itself, 2-1/4 x 1 inches. If the damage is on the face of the door around the lock bore, a filler plate this size does nothing for you, and you want a wrap around plate or a lock face filler sized to the bore instead. Match the part to where the hole actually is.
4) What finishes does the Don-Jo EF-160 latch filler plate come in?
Four: brass plated, chrome plated, duronodic brown coated, and prime coated. If the plate will show on a door edge next to existing hardware, pick the plated finish that matches the lock trim already on the opening. Prime coated is the one to order when the doors get painted, since the primer takes standard paint and the plate disappears into the door edge.
5) Is the EF-160 filler plate strong enough for a high traffic commercial door?
It's 11-gauge (.119) steel, which is heavy enough that it won't oil-can or dent from cart traffic and door strikes the way a thin plated cover would. That gauge is why it holds up in schools, hospitals, and warehouse openings where the door edge takes abuse.
6) Can I paint the Don-Jo EF-160 to match my door color?
The prime coated version is made for exactly that. The factory primer is a paint-ready surface, so you can shoot it the same color as the door and the patch reads as part of the edge. The brass, chrome, and duronodic brown versions are finished plates meant to be left as-is.
7) How many Don-Jo EF-160 filler plates come in a pack?
They ship in a shelf pack of 10. That works out well if you're standardizing a floor or a building of doors during a hardware changeover, and it means a locksmith's truck stock carries enough to finish a multi-door job without a second trip.
