Prime Line Door Strike - Defender Security U 10385 - Ideal for 5-1/2 in 🚪 and 6 in Hole Spacing's on Dead Latch and Deadbolt - Steel with Satin Nickel Finish Review

I replaced two locking plates that only had two screws each with this one that both locked with nine screws. I used 4" screws from a hardware store as the reviews here suggested they might not be very good quality. (although mine looked fine). I also replaced the hinge screws on my door with over 4" screws because they only used 3/4" screws, which was a joke. If you purchase this panel to reinforce your door, please also replace the hinge screws, otherwise the frame will fail and the entire…

I bought this after my neighbor kicked in his garage door and he wanted to upgrade it before I became a victim. I didn't realize how little security (read zero security) my latch offered until I started installing this product. Installation took about 30 minutes as I had to dig a recess for this larger unit.

They are great for extra door security. I feel safe knowing they are on all my doors. I live in an area where home invasions are common so I definitely needed this to stay safe. The screws that come with it are junk. DO NOT USE THEM. Instead, buy long 3/16" x 3-1/4" concrete anchor bolts. These are heavy duty bolts

Mounted on the door that leads to our garage. I was able to install it on top of the frame instead of creating a groove to fit the space. The downside to this is that the original frame holes are significantly smaller. The screw sizes match exactly and you can see them through the very large holes in this strike plate. I don't know why the manufacturer made the holes so big. There may be another model with standard size slots but I haven't found it. The screws that come with it are a joke. The…
