Kwikset 83537-15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset 83537 strike work with a standard latch, or does it need a deadlatch?
Both. The 83537 strike plate is made to receive either a plain latch or a deadlatch, so it covers a basic passage or privacy latch as well as a keyed entry latch with a deadlatching plunger. That is the usual mix a property manager runs into across a building, so one strike part number handles both door types.
2) What size mortise does the Kwikset 83537 strike need in the frame?
The strike face measures 2 inches by 1 inch with square corners, so the frame needs a square-cut 2 x 1 inch pocket rather than a radius-corner prep. If your existing strike cutout has rounded corners, this plate will not sit flush in it without squaring the corners off.
3) Is the Kwikset 83537 strike handed?
Handing matters on a lip strike because the lip projects toward the door swing side. The 83537 has square corners and a symmetric 2 x 1 inch face, so mount it with the lip facing the direction the latch approaches. Check your existing strike orientation before you pull it off the jamb.
4) Is the Kwikset 83537 a full lock or just the strike plate?
Just the strike. The 83537 is the plate that mounts in the door frame and receives the latch, nothing more. You still need the latch or lockset itself on the door side, and you may need a strike box or dust box behind it depending on the frame.
5) Can I use the Kwikset 83537 strike on commercial doors or is it residential only?
It's classed for commercial use. In practice that means apartment corridors, offices, and multi-family unit doors running standard cylindrical latches, not fire-rated openings with mortise locks. For a heavy-traffic opening with a mortise lock, you need a mortise-lock strike, not a 2 x 1 inch lip strike.
6) My door latch isn't catching and the jamb is chewed up. Is this the right fix?
Often, yes. Swapping in the 83537 extended lip strike gives the latch a ramp onto the plate instead of letting it drag on the wood, and the extended lip covers the damaged edge of the jamb. It only works if your frame prep is or can be made a square-corner 2 x 1 inch cutout, and if the latch is a plain latch or deadlatch type.
