StrikeMaster II PRO does not require additional locking devices. Its installation adds nearly 5 feet of customized steel strength to your existing door frame. It is powder coated white to match most homeowner's trim colors or you can paint it to match your decor. It's constructed of two parts; both pieces fit together making one unit that goes on the locking side of the frame, this two piece PATENTED construction eliminates the removal of the door casing trim, saving valuable time. Designed with standard cuts 5 1/2 inches - 6 inches between dead-bolt and entry lock, StrikeMaster II PRO is 1/8" thick and fits any 1 3/4" door-frame without the need to alter {mortise} the door casing or frame design. You don't have to remove any of trim for installation. This heavy-duty strike plate uses 2.5-inch wood screws to cut deep into the existing door frame stud. Most installations take less than 30 minutes.
If you have sensors for a door alarm and the StrikeMaster II PRO interferes with the sensor here is what you do: Get the measurement as to where the StrikeMaster II PRO will cover the sensor, attach StrikeMaster II PRO to a short piece of 2x4, then with a hole saw, slowly cut out the hole. This works very well, and looks great.
