Overview
The Dorcas “L” face plate is a precision-engineered component designed to complement Dorcas electric strike and access control systems. Crafted from premium materials, it provides both structural support and an aesthetic finish to the door frame opening.
Features & Benefits
-
Durable Construction: Made of high-grade stainless steel or corrosion-resistant alloy to ensure long-term reliability, even in demanding environments.
-
L-Shaped Profile: The “L” geometry allows optimal alignment with latch or bolt mechanisms, ensuring smooth engagement and consistent operation.
-
Countersunk Fixing Holes: Screw holes are countersunk to allow the screws to sit flush, giving a clean finish and reducing tampering risk.
-
Left / Right Compatibility: Depending on the model, the face plate can be reversible for left- or right-hand doors, or comes in variants to suit specific opening directions.
-
Cutouts & Recesses: Precision cutouts accommodate bolt or latch movement; reinforced around those zones to resist deformation.
-
Aesthetic Integration: Sleek edges and uniform finish ensure the face plate blends with modern door hardware, enhancing the professional look of the system.
Typical Applications
-
Residential and commercial access control systems
-
Doors fitted with electric strikes, mortice latches or electric lock releases
-
Renovation or upgrade projects where high security, reliability, and clean design are required
