Kwikset KWI-83222 3-5/8" Square Deadbolt Strike

Match the corner to the mortise already cut in your jamb. The Kwikset 83222 is a square corner strike, so it drops into a jamb that was routed square, which is how most jambs prepped on site with a chisel end up. If your existing strike has rounded corners, a square plate will leave the pocket corners unfilled and the plate proud or loose. Look at the plate you are pulling off before you order.

The 83222 is a 3-5/8 inch strike, which is the taller extended size rather than the short 2-3/4 inch plate. If the jamb currently carries a short strike, the 3-5/8 inch plate will cover that mortise and then some, but it needs a longer pocket cut and two more screw positions. Going the other direction, a short plate will not cover a 3-5/8 inch cutout.

No. The 83222 is a deadbolt strike, cut for the throw of a deadbolt bolt only. The knob or lever below it takes its own latch strike with a curved lip that the spring latch rides across. Order both if you are replacing the full jamb prep on a door.

The Emtek 83223 Standard Deadbolt Strike Plate is the nearest peer: it is a deadbolt strike plate with square corners, the same corner type the Kwikset 83222 uses. The Kwikset 83222 is a 3-5/8 inch square corner deadbolt strike built for Grade 2 deadbolts in the 780, 785, 980, 985, 258, 800, 801, 553, 554, 818, 660 series, and comes in Bright Brass, Satin Nickel, Dark Bronze/Black, Antique Nickel and Satin Chrome. If the door is prepped with square corner mortises and the deadbolt is a Kwikset in one of those series, the 83222 drops in; the Emtek 83223 is the square corner option when the deadbolt is an Emtek.

The Kwikset 83222 is a 3-5/8 inch strike, so it needs a mortise cut to that height. For a shorter prep, the Deltana SP2753 is a deadbolt strike plate measuring 2-3/4 inches by 1-1/4 inches in steel. That smaller footprint suits a door already mortised for a compact strike, where enlarging the prep for a 3-5/8 inch plate would mean chiseling the jamb. Measure the existing mortise before ordering either one.

The 83222 is a residential deadbolt strike. It suits houses, apartments, and multi-family unit doors with Kwikset residential deadbolts. For a commercial opening with a mortise or heavy-duty cylindrical deadbolt, this is not the right plate.

Five finishes: Bright Brass, Satin Nickel, Dark Bronze/Black, Antique Nickel, and Satin Chrome. For a property manager standardizing a building, pick the finish off the deadbolt itself rather than the knob, since strike and bolt sit in the same sightline at the jamb.

Different prep entirely. The 83222 is a face-mounted deadbolt strike for a wood jamb. A Codelocks ASA strike plate is the ASA format, which is the larger rectangular plate used on hollow metal frames and aluminum openings. Those two are not interchangeable, so match the strike to the frame and lock you actually have.

No. The Codelocks ASA Strike Plate is an ASA strike in a stainless steel finish, an ASA-format plate sized to the ASA prep used with Codelocks hardware. The Kwikset 83222 is a deadbolt strike, 3-5/8 inches with square corners, made for Grade 2 Kwikset deadbolts in the 780, 785, 980, 985, 258, 800, 801, 553, 554, 818 and 660 series. The two answer different door preps and are not interchangeable, so confirm which prep the jamb carries before ordering.

The Kwikset 83222 deadbolt strike is offered in five finishes - Bright Brass, Satin Nickel, Dark Bronze/Black, Antique Nickel and Satin Chrome - so one part number covers doors with brass, nickel, chrome or dark bronze trim. The Deltana SP2753 deadbolt strike is a steel plate at 2-3/4 inches by 1-1/4 inches, and the Codelocks ASA Strike Plate is stainless steel. For a fleet of residential doors where the strike has to disappear into varied existing trim, the 83222 finish range is what lets you standardize on a single item.

The Kwikset 83222 is a residential deadbolt strike, a 3-5/8 inch square corner plate for Grade 2 Kwikset deadbolts. For an opening running commercial access control hardware, the Codelocks ASA Strike Plate is an ASA-format strike in stainless steel and matches the ASA prep those installations typically use. Choose by what the jamb is already cut for and what lock body is in the door rather than by the plate alone.
