Common questions/ issues  
 
Strike plate does not fit. 
 
Replacement strike plate sent does not fit. 
 
Do you have a smaller/ shorter strike plate? 
 
Common answer/ solution 
 
When the door was mortised the contractor, or customer used the dimensions for the deadbolt face plate, instead of the strike plate dimensions. Or the customer previously had a JD series deadbolt installed and the strike dimensions have changed. 
 Request a photo of the existing strike, ask the customer If the dimensions needed matches the faceplate on the latch. Ask the customer if they need square corners, instead of radius (rounded). 
 
Some Dexter JD Series deadbolts have a strike plate with 1”x 2-1/4” inches 
Standard B- Series strike plates dimensions are: 1-1/8” x 2-3/4” inches 
All our Residential latch face plates are: 1” x 2-1/4” inches
