Rockwood K1050 Kick Plate with Countersunk Holes in

Beyond size and finish, the K1050 takes: B3E or B4E for beveled 3 or 4 edges, HVBEV for a heavy bevel, SA for self-adhesive or TEK for self-drilling screws instead of the standard #6 x 5/8 inch oval head SMS, CSK for countersunk holes, TORX for security Torx screws, and cutouts for locks, louvers or windows. Cutouts have to be dimensioned on an order worksheet, so have the lock location and any louver opening measured off the door before you place the order.

The Hager 190S is the nearest match. Both are stainless steel door protection plates for commercial openings: the Rockwood K1050 is a stainless steel kick plate, and the Hager 190S is a kick plate in satin stainless steel with four beveled edges. The K1050 covers 8 x 30 inch, 8 x 34 inch, 10 x 28 inch and 10 x 34 inch sizes, so match the size you need to the opening before cross-referencing. Note the edge treatment differs out of the box: the Hager 190S comes with four beveled edges as described, while beveled edges on the K1050 are specified as an option, B3E for three edges or B4E for four.

Use the screw mounted K1050F rather than the standard K1050 arrangement. The K1050F is UL listed for use on 90 minute label wood doors and 3 hour label metal doors, which is the version an inspector will expect on a labeled opening. Self adhesive mounting, the SA option, is not the one to specify there. This matters when cross shopping: the Hager 190S and the Ives 8400 are both listed as stainless steel protection plates without a fire label stated for them, so on a labeled door the K1050F is the specification to hold to.

Bevel is an ordering option, not standard. Specify B3E for three beveled edges, which is what you want when the plate runs to the bottom of the door, or B4E for all four. HVBEV gets a heavy bevel where you want a softer transition on a high traffic corridor door. If you want a plate that already ships beveled without specifying, the Hager 190S comes with four beveled edges and the Ives 8400 Series protection plate is a beveled edge plate as well.

The Rockwood K1050 here is US3, a bright polished brass finish. For satin stainless, the Hager 190S kick plate is offered in 32D satin stainless steel with four beveled edges. The Ives 8400 Series is another stainless protection plate with beveled edges. Match on plate size and mounting method when you cross over, since fastener and cutout options differ by manufacturer.

Order the K1050 with TORX, which substitutes security Torx screws for the standard oval head sheet metal screws. That is the usual spec for corridors, restrooms and any opening where the plate is reachable by the public. Rockwood hardware is used across institutional buildings, detention, education and sports facilities, and the security screw option is the reason it survives those environments.

The K1050 is an ANSI/BHMA J102 armor, kick and mop plate. J102 is the designation architects write on a hardware schedule for a protection plate of this type, so if the spec calls out J102 the K1050 answers it.

Yes. The K1050 can be ordered with cutouts for locks, louvers or windows, dimensioned on Rockwood's order worksheets. Anything taller than a standard 8 inch plate will usually run into the lock case, so if you are specifying a 10 inch height on a mortise or cylindrical lock door, plan on a lock cutout.

They serve the same purpose but are not identical parts. The Ives 8400 is a stainless steel door protection plate with beveled edges, and the Rockwood K1050 is a stainless steel kick plate conforming to ANSI/BHMA J102. Both are protection plates mounted to the push side of a door face, so either will do the job of shielding the door bottom from cart and foot traffic. Where they part company is in how the plate is specified: the Ives 8400 is described with beveled edges as part of the plate, while on the K1050 the edge bevel, the countersunk holes, security Torx screws, self-adhesive mounting and self-drilling TEK screws are each called out as options when ordering. If you are matching plates already hung on other doors in the building, order to the same series rather than mixing the two.

The Rockwood K1050 is the one to stay with. It can be ordered with cutouts for locks, louvers or windows, worked out on the ordering worksheets, and with a heavy bevel specified as HVBEV where the plate edge needs it. The Hager 190S and the Ives 8400 are both described as stainless steel protection plates with beveled edges and no cutout provision stated, so for an obstructed door face the K1050 with cutouts specified is the cleaner path than field cutting a plain plate.

All three are commercial stainless plates, so the deciding factor is how much you need to control the details across the fleet. The Rockwood K1050 conforms to ANSI/BHMA J102 and lets you fix the fastening and edge treatment by option code - CSK countersunk holes, TORX security screws, TEK self drilling screws, SA self adhesive, and B3E or B4E bevels - so every door in the standard is ordered the same way. The Hager 190S is a 190 Series plate in satin stainless with four beveled edges, and the Ives 8400 is an 8400 Series stainless protection plate with beveled edges; both are a single defined configuration to reorder against. If your openings vary in size and prep, the K1050 option codes give you one part number family to write into the standard; if they are uniform, a fixed configuration plate is simpler to reorder.

Commercial. The K1050 is a standard duty stainless steel plate carried as commercial door hardware, and Rockwood specifies it into offices, retail, education, detention, sports facilities, hotels and restaurants. If you are standardizing a portfolio of openings, the four stock sizes plus the option set let you run the same model across the building and vary only the size and cutouts.
