Adjustable Surface-Mount Design

Unlike a mortise strike that requires a recessed pocket in the frame, the ECL-437K mounts directly to the frame surface.

The adjustable design helps compensate for installation alignment so the locking mechanism can engage the strike correctly.

This makes the ECL-437K especially useful for:

• Existing door-frame repairs

• Replacement installations

• Hollow metal frames

• Commercial door retrofits

• Applications where a surface-mounted strike is preferred

Designed for Outswinging Doors

Detex specifically identifies the ECL-437K adjustable surface strike for outswinging ECL-230D installations.

For comparison, Detex also offers:

• ECL-439K – Mortise Strike Plate Kit

• ECL-435K – Adjustable Surface Keeper with brackets for applicable inswinging and double-door applications

Selecting the correct strike depends on the door swing and opening configuration.

Common Applications

• Commercial Exit Doors

• Emergency Exit Doors

• Retail Facilities

• Warehouses

• Schools

• Hospitals

• Government Buildings
