Kwikset 83030 Full Lip Square Corner Strike

The Kwikset 83030 is a strike plate with a full lip, meaning the curved lip that guides the latch runs the full height of the plate, and square corners rather than radius corners. Use a full lip when the jamb is flush with the door opening and the latch needs guiding across the gap. Square corners are for jambs mortised with a square chisel cut; if your existing strike mortise has rounded corners, a radius corner strike is the cleaner swap.

The Kwikset 83030 is a lip strike, which is a latch strike, the lip exists to ride the spring latch into the pocket. A deadbolt has no bevel and needs no lip, so for a deadbolt opening use a dedicated deadbolt strike such as the Emtek 83223 square corner deadbolt strike or the Deltana SP2753, a 2-3/4 by 1-1/4 inch steel deadbolt strike.

No. The 83030 is a residential full lip strike, not an ASA strike. ASA prep, the tall rectangular cutout used with commercial and electronic locks, takes an ASA plate such as the Codelocks ASA Strike Plate in stainless steel. Fitting a residential lip strike into an ASA mortise leaves the cutout exposed.

If the existing mortise has square corners and was cut for a full lip strike, the 83030 drops straight in. Where the old plate has rounded corners, you would need to square the mortise with a chisel or order a radius corner strike. Check one door before ordering a fleet quantity, since builders often standardize one corner style across a whole building.

The Emtek 83223 is a standard deadbolt strike plate with square corners, so it covers the same square-corner door jamb prep as the Kwikset 83030 full lip square corner strike. Both are strike plates rather than complete lock assemblies, so you reuse the existing deadbolt and only swap the jamb plate. Check the existing mortise in the jamb before ordering either one, since square corner prep will not accept a radius corner plate without recutting.

The Deltana SP2753 is a deadbolt strike plate measuring 2-3/4 inches by 1-1/4 inches in steel, so it is the one to specify when you have to match a known jamb cutout dimension. The Kwikset 83030 is a full lip square corner strike, with the extended lip that wraps the jamb edge to protect the wood where the bolt passes. If the drawing calls out a face dimension, the Deltana gives you a number to check against.

No - those are different strike types. The Codelocks ASA strike plate is an ASA-format strike in a stainless steel finish, a larger commercial mortise-style strike prep used with ASA-strike locksets. The Kwikset 83030 is a residential full lip square corner strike. Dropping an ASA strike into a jamb prepped for a full lip residential strike means enlarging the mortise, so treat the two as separate preps rather than substitutes.

It's a residential-duty part. The 83030 is catalogued for residential use, so for apartment turns, single family doors and light interior openings it's the right class of hardware. On a Grade 1 commercial opening with a mortise or heavy cylindrical lock, specify a commercial strike instead.

Yes, two separate plates. The 83030 handles the latch on the knob or lever, and the deadbolt above it takes its own plate, for example the Emtek 83223 in square corners or the Deltana SP2753 in steel. Buy them in matching corner style so both jamb mortises can be cut the same way.

The Kwikset 83030 full lip square corner strike is classed for residential use, which suits apartment unit doors and interior residential openings. For a commercial opening where the lockset uses an ASA strike prep, the Codelocks ASA strike plate in stainless steel is the format to look at. The deciding factor is the strike prep already cut in the jamb and the strike the lock was designed around, not the door location itself.

If the jambs are cut with square corner pockets, the Kwikset 83030 full lip square corner strike and the Emtek 83223 square corner deadbolt strike plate both fit that prep, so either can be the standard. The Kwikset 83030 comes in polished chrome, which pairs with chrome lever and deadbolt trim already on the doors. Pull one existing strike first and confirm the corners are square rather than radiused before buying in quantity.

Polished chrome only. That pairs with polished chrome or bright chrome lever and knob trim; if the rest of your door hardware is satin nickel or bronze, the plate will read as a mismatch on an exposed jamb.
