Don-Jo EL-102-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is an extended lip strike and when do I need one instead of a standard strike plate?
An extended lip strike is a latch strike with a longer lip that carries the latchbolt further out past the frame face. You need one when the door is set back from the frame edge, or when a stop or applied trim would otherwise let the latch drag or miss. The Don-Jo EL-102 measures 2-1/4 inches high by 2 inches wide, with the width taken from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip, so that 2 inch figure is the reach you actually get past the screw line. Standard strikes measure the lip much shorter, so if your latch is riding on the frame edge before it enters the pocket, the extended lip is the fix.
2) How do I measure to see if the Don-Jo EL-102 strike will fit my frame?
Measure from the center of your existing strike screw hole out to where the lip needs to end. On the EL-102 that dimension is 2 inches, and the plate body is 2-1/4 inches tall. Don-Jo publishes the width off the screw hole center rather than overall, so measure your opening the same way or you will be off by the width of the plate body. If your required reach past the screw center is longer than 2 inches, this is not the right lip length.
3) How many latch holes does the Don-Jo EL-102 strike have?
One latch hole. That makes the EL-102 a single-latch strike, so it suits a cylindrical or tubular latchset with just a latchbolt. If your lock throws a separate deadbolt above the latch, you need a two hole strike or a separate deadbolt strike, not this one.
4) Will the EL-102 strike work on a double door with no mullion?
No. The EL-102 is a single latch strike that mounts in the frame jamb for one leaf. On a pair of doors with no center mullion there is no jamb to strike into, so you need a strike built for that condition, such as the Detex 92 Strike Kit, which is a double door strike kit from the Detex 90 Strike Series supplied with tamper resistant fasteners.
5) Is the Don-Jo EL-102 a direct replacement for a worn out extended lip strike already in my frame?
It replaces one when the geometry matches. Check three things against what is coming out: the plate must be 2-1/4 inches tall to cover the existing mortise, the lip reach from screw hole center must be 2 inches or less, and the corners must be square or radiused to match how your frame was prepped. If the old plate was longer in the lip or had a second hole for a deadbolt, the EL-102 will not cover the same cut.
6) Is the Detex 92 strike kit a substitute for a Don-Jo EL-102 extended lip strike?
No - they solve different openings. The Don-Jo EL-102 is a single extended lip strike, 2-1/4 inches high by 2 inches wide with one latch hole, formed from 18-gauge (.050) steel, with the width taken from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip. The Detex 92 Strike Kit is a double door strike kit from the 90 Strike Series and ships with tamper resistant fasteners. Use the EL-102 when you are replacing or extending the lip on a conventional single-latch strike prep in a jamb; use the Detex 92 kit when the strike lands on the inactive leaf of a pair rather than on a frame.
7) What should I use instead of a Don-Jo EL-102 when the strike has to mount to a pipe or round post instead of a flat jamb?
Reach for the Trimco 1260P instead. The 1260P is a pipe adapter strike from the Trimco 1260 Series, sold as the strike only, and it is the part made for an opening where the strike bears on a pipe rather than a flat frame face. The Don-Jo EL-102 is a flat extended lip strike, 2-1/4 inches by 2 inches in 18-gauge (.050) steel, with the lip extension measured from the center of the screw hole out to the end of the lip - it is intended to be screwed to a conventional jamb face. If the gate or storefront post is round, the EL-102 will not seat against it.
8) Does the EL-102 strike come with square or radius corners?
Both configurations exist for the EL-102. The square corner version is the standard plate, and a radius corner option is offered for frames that were prepped with a router rather than chiseled square. Match whatever is already cut into your frame: dropping a square corner plate into a radiused mortise leaves gaps at all four corners, and a radius plate in a square pocket will not sit tight.
9) Is 18-gauge steel heavy enough for a strike on a high traffic commercial door?
The EL-102 is formed from 18-gauge (.050) steel and Don-Jo rates it for commercial use. On a school corridor, a healthcare wing, or an apartment building entry, that is the gauge you want behind the latch, since a thin residential strike deforms at the lip and starts letting the latch ride out. For openings that take abuse, the gauge is doing real work.
10) Can I buy just one EL-102 strike or does it come in a box?
The EL-102 is packaged in shelf packs of 10. That works out well for a contractor rekeying or re-strikng a floor of doors, or a maintenance shop keeping spares on the shelf, but if you only need to fix one door you will still be taking the ten pack.
11) I need a strike for a latch striking against a pipe or round post, not a flat frame. Is this it?
The EL-102 is a flat plate strike for a conventional door frame, so it will not conform to a round section. For a latch landing on pipe you want a pipe adapter strike, such as the Trimco 1260P from the 1260 Series, which is sold as the strike alone.
12) I need matching strikes across a run of doors in one building - does the Don-Jo EL-102 or the Trimco 1260P standardize better across a facility?
For a run of conventional jamb-mounted openings, the Don-Jo EL-102 is the one that standardizes: it is offered in eight finishes - DU, 605, 609, 619, 620, 622, 629 and 630 - with an optional radius corner version, and it is packed in shelf packs of 10, so one part number and one finish covers a floor of doors. The Trimco 1260P is a pipe adapter strike sold as the strike only, a single-purpose part for pipe-mounted openings rather than something you spec building-wide. Most facilities carry the EL-102 as the standing item and the pipe adapter only where a post demands it.
13) The double doors in our building have tamper resistant strike screws - can I order Don-Jo EL-102 strikes to match them?
Those are two different parts. Tamper resistant fasteners come with the Detex 92 Strike Kit, a double door strike kit in the 90 Strike Series, and that kit is what you match on a pair of doors already fitted with it. The Don-Jo EL-102 is a single 2-1/4 inch by 2 inch extended lip strike in 18-gauge (.050) steel with one latch hole; it is the part for the single-leaf openings elsewhere in the building. Order the EL-102 for the single doors and stay with the Detex 92 kit where the existing pairs use it.
14) What finishes does the Don-Jo EL-102 extended lip strike come in?
Eight finishes: 605 polished brass, 609 antique brass, 619 satin nickel, 620 antique nickel, 622 matte black, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, and DU duronodic brown. For a property manager standardizing a building, 630 satin stainless is the usual match for commercial lever hardware and 622 matte black for the darker modern packages. Order the strike in the same finish code as the lockset and it will read as one assembly.
