Don-Jo FL-208W Security Strike – 1-3/4" x 8", 13 Gauge, Single Latch Hole

The Don-Jo FL-208W Security Strike is a heavy-duty ferrous steel security strike engineered to reinforce the strike-side of a door frame where a single key-in-knob or deadbolt latch engages. Don-Jo Manufacturing builds this strike to 13 gauge (.095) steel — significantly stouter than standard 16- or 18-gauge box strikes — giving installers and specifiers a reinforced bearing surface that resists spreading and deformation under forced-entry loads. At 1-3/4" wide by 8" tall with a single latch hole, the FL-208W covers the full jamb zone around the bolt cutout, concealing the existing mortise pocket and providing solid steel backing where the door frame is most vulnerable. It is available in three finishes to coordinate with surrounding hardware: silver lacquer (SL), bright brass (BP), and white (WH).

FL-208W Security Strike – Key Features

• Heavy 13 Gauge (.095) Steel: Thick ferrous construction delivers a reinforced strike face that resists deformation at the latch pocket under impact or pry stress.
• Single Latch Hole Configuration: Sized for one key-in-knob or deadbolt application, making it a direct-fit security strike for the most common residential and light commercial door prep.
• Generous 8" Plate Height: The tall 1-3/4" × 8" footprint spans a wide section of the door jamb, distributing load across more frame material and anchoring points than a standard-height strike plate.
• Three Finish Options: Silver lacquer (SL), bright brass (BP), and white (WH) allow the strike to blend with existing knob, lever, or deadbolt hardware finish families.
• Ferrous Steel Material: Magnetic-compatible, paintable, and suited for standard commercial door frame environments.
• Not Handed: Installs on either hand without modification — no separate SKU required for handing.
• Shelf Pack of 10: Packaged in quantities of 10, making the FL-208W practical for contractors and facility managers stocking multiple openings.
