Dormakaba 201821-03-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is an ASA roller strike, and when would I use one instead of a plain flat strike plate?
A roller strike puts a rotating roller where a standard strike has a fixed lip, so the latch rolls across it instead of dragging. That cuts wear and makes closing quieter and smoother, which is why it gets specified on high traffic commercial openings. The Dormakaba 201821-03-01 is built to the ASA strike profile, so it drops into standard commercial ASA door and frame prep. If your frame is prepped for a T-strike or a residential 2-3/4 x 1-1/8 face plate, this is the wrong shape and you want a strike cut for that prep instead.
2) Will the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 roller strike work with my Dormakaba mechanical lock?
It is sold as a factory replacement part for compatible Dormakaba mechanical lock assemblies, machined to Dormakaba tolerances under part number 201821-03-01 so the latch aligns and engages properly. Match it against the strike your lock came with: if the existing strike is an ASA profile roller strike, this is the direct replacement. A lock using a non-ASA or flat lip strike needs the strike specified for that lock, not this one.
3) Can I use this ASA roller strike for a deadbolt?
No. A roller strike is for a spring latch, which rolls against the roller as the door closes. A deadbolt throws into a pocket and needs a deadbolt strike. For that, look at the Deltana SP2753 deadbolt strike plate at 2-3/4 by 1-1/4 inches in steel, the Emtek 83223 square corner deadbolt strike, or Kwikset's 80318 full round adjustable strike. If you also need the box behind the plate, the Kwikset 81640 strike box or 81231-001 metal strike dust box cover that.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 if I need an ASA strike in a stainless steel finish instead of brass?
The Codelocks CDL-ASA is an ASA strike plate supplied in a stainless steel finish, so it stays on the same ASA strike profile while changing the appearance. The Dormakaba 201821-03-01 is an ASA roller strike in 605 Bright Brass, and the roller element is what gives it the rolling latch engagement. If the opening needs the roller action, stay with the 201821-03-01; if you only need an ASA-profile strike plate and want stainless to match surrounding hardware, the CDL-ASA covers it.
5) Can I use a deadbolt strike plate in place of the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 ASA roller strike?
No. The 201821-03-01 is an ASA-profile roller strike built for latch engagement on commercial mechanical lock systems. Deadbolt strike plates such as the Deltana SP2753 (2-3/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch steel deadbolt strike) and the Emtek 83223 standard deadbolt strike plate with square corners are prepped for a deadbolt bolt throw, not for a rolling latch. They are not interchangeable with an ASA roller strike in a latch opening.
6) What finish does the Dormakaba ASA roller strike come in?
One finish only: 605 Bright Brass, a factory applied high luster polished brass. If the rest of the trim on the opening is satin chrome, oil rubbed bronze, or stainless, this strike will not match and you would be ordering a visible mismatch on the frame.
7) I need an ASA strike but not in brass. What else is available?
For a stainless steel look, the Codelocks ASA Strike Plate is the same ASA profile in a stainless steel finish. Be aware it is a Codelocks part, so use it where you are working to the ASA frame prep rather than replacing a Dormakaba specific roller strike, since only the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 is stated as a factory replacement for Dormakaba mechanical locks.
8) My commercial doors are noisy and the latches are chewing up the strikes. Is a roller strike the fix?
That is the case a roller strike is made for. The rolling engagement lets the latch ride instead of scraping, which reduces wear on both the latch and the strike and quiets the close. The 201821-03-01 gives you that in an ASA profile so it sits in the existing commercial frame prep. It will not correct a sagging door or a frame out of alignment, though, if the latch is hitting high or low you need to address the hinges or frame first.
9) I need an adjustable strike rather than a fixed ASA strike - what are my options?
The Dormakaba 201821-03-01 is a fixed ASA-profile roller strike sized to Dormakaba tolerances, so alignment is set by the door prep. If the frame prep is out of alignment and you need adjustment, Kwikset offers the 80318 full round adjustable strike and the 81825 six-way adjustable deadlatch, both deadbolt strike plate items. Note that moving to those means leaving the ASA profile and the roller latch engagement behind.
10) Does the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 include a strike box, or do I order that separately?
The 201821-03-01 is the ASA roller strike itself, a replacement component for compatible Dormakaba mechanical lock assemblies. If the frame needs a dust box or strike box behind the plate, those are separate items - Kwikset lists the 81231-001 metal strike dust box and the 81640 strike box. Confirm the frame cutout depth before adding one, since a box is not a substitute for the strike plate.
11) For a commercial facility standardizing strikes across doors, how does the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 compare with the residential-style strike plates?
The 201821-03-01 is specified as commercial and conforms to the ASA strike profile, which is the prep most commercial frames and mortise or cylindrical latch sets are cut for, and its roller design reduces wear under high traffic. The Deltana SP2753 and Emtek 83223 are deadbolt strike plates on a smaller residential-style footprint. For fleet standardization across office, education, healthcare or multi-tenant doors already prepped to ASA, the 201821-03-01 keeps one prep and one finish across the openings.
12) Is this roller strike rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The 201821-03-01 is classified as a commercial door hardware component and is built to commercial standards for offices, schools, healthcare, retail, industrial and warehouse buildings, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities. The rolling latch engagement is the part that earns it on doors that cycle all day.
13) For a facility standard, is the Dormakaba 201821-03-01 the right part to stock for strike replacements?
If your openings run Dormakaba mechanical locks with ASA roller strikes, yes, this is the factory spec replacement for that assembly and keeping it on the shelf shortens turnaround on service calls. Stock it in the finish that matches your building trim, since Bright Brass 605 is the only finish offered on this part number.
