Don-Jo 81-2-CW Stainless Steel Wrap-Around Plate | 1-3/4" Commercial Lever Reinforcer

The Don-Jo 81-2-CW Stainless Steel Wrap-Around Plate is a high-security architectural solution designed specifically for the reinforcement and repair of doors using commercial-grade lever sets. Measuring 4-1/4" wide x 4-1/2" high, this heavy-duty door wrap-around plate is precision-engineered for standard 1-3/4" thick doors. It serves as the definitive solution for door surface repair, effectively concealing "ghosting," scratches, or structural damage around the bore hole while providing a rigid steel foundation for high-traffic hardware.

Key Features & Performance

• Lever-Ready Preparation: Custom-prepped for commercial levers, allowing mounting posts and thru bolts to pass directly through the plate for a unified, rock-solid installation.
  
• Commercial 2-3/4" Backset: Features a factory-punched 2-1/8" bore positioned exactly 2-3/4" from the door edge, the standard configuration for most commercial office and retail entryways.
• Standard 1-3/4" Fit: Tailor-made for the most common commercial door thickness, ensuring a flush, professional mount that coordinates with existing door stops and frames.
• Premium 630 Stainless Steel: Manufactured from US32D / 630 Satin Stainless Steel, providing industrial-grade corrosion resistance and a modern brushed finish that matches architectural hardware.
  
• Structural Reinforcement: Strengthens the door leaf at its most vulnerable point, providing a permanent solution for door edge reinforcement that stands up to constant daily use.
