Don-Jo DEST-102 Extended Lip Dimple ASA Strike – Satin Stainless, Dark Bronze & Flat Black

The Don-Jo DEST-102 is an extended lip dimple ASA strike engineered for hollow-metal and wood frames where the latchbolt needs extra lip coverage beyond a standard ASA footprint. Don-Jo Manufacturing produces this strike in a 4-7/8" height with a 2" lip measured from the center of the screw hole to the end of the lip, giving installers the reach needed on deeper stops or offset jamb conditions. The dimple formation in the strike face holds the latchbolt positively and reduces rattle — a key performance detail on high-traffic commercial doors. Available in three finish options on this listing: 630 satin stainless steel (US32D), Duranodic dark bronze (Don-Jo DU), and 622 / US19 flat black, the DEST-102 coordinates with a wide range of cylindrical lockset trims and door hardware programs. A note on gauge: Don-Jo's product page currently states 18 ga. (.050), but the 2026 Don-Jo Strike-Plates catalog specifies 13 ga. (.095) for DEST-series dimple strikes. We publish the catalog figure — 13 ga. (.095) — as the more current sourced specification; verify with Don-Jo at time of order if gauge tolerance is critical to your application.

DEST-102 Extended Lip Dimple Strike – Key Features

• Extended Lip Design: 2" lip (center of screw hole to lip end) provides additional latchbolt coverage beyond standard ASA strikes, accommodating deeper door stops and offset frame conditions.
• Dimple Strike Face: Formed dimple in the strike pocket captures the latchbolt securely, minimizing door rattle and improving latching consistency on active commercial openings.
• ASA Footprint: Standard ASA hole pattern allows direct replacement of worn or undersized strikes in existing frames without frame modification on compatible preps.
• 4-7/8" Height: Taller plate face offers greater frame protection and a clean, professional appearance on commercial hollow-metal and wood door frames.
• Heavy-Gauge Construction (Catalog-Sourced): The 2026 Don-Jo Strike-Plates catalog lists DEST-series strikes at 13 ga. (.095) — note that the Don-Jo website currently prints 18 ga. (.050); confirm gauge with Don-Jo if specification compliance requires written verification.
• Three Commercial Finishes: Offered in 630 satin stainless steel (US32D), Duranodic dark bronze (DU), and 622 / US19 flat black to match standard commercial hardware finish schedules.
• Not Handed: Symmetrical design installs on either hand of door without a separate SKU or field modification.
