Alaks Adjustable Door Strike Plate

Precision Solution for Eliminating Play and Re‑Aligning Aluminum Hinged Doors

One of the most common issues in aluminum hinged doors is the appearance of play, sash looseness, reduced locking pressure and loss of sealing performance after a few years of operation. This usually occurs due to sash drop, frame settlement, or hardware wear.

The Alaks Adjustable Door Strike Plate is a fully engineered component designed precisely to solve this problem. Thanks to its millimetric adjustment capability, it allows you to fine‑tune the distance between sash and frame, ensuring the door always closes tight, without play, and 100% properly engaged.

How Does the Alaks Adjustable Door Strike Plate Work?

By means of its adjustment slot / precise regulating mechanism, this strike plate enables:

Correction of the engagement distance between the lock latch and the frame
Elimination of play that has developed over time
Fine adjustment of compression on the sealing gaskets for proper airtightness
Compensation of sash drop without moving the main lock or drilling new holes

This feature significantly extends the service life of the hardware and restores the door’s performance to its original level.

Technical & Engineering Features:

Material & Construction:

All‑metal construction
High resistance to humidity, oxidation, salt and corrosion

Equipped with millimetric adjustment slots
Possible vertical or horizontal adjustment (depending on profile type and installation method)

Recommended Applications:

The Alaks Adjustable Strike Plate is particularly recommended in the following situations:

Doors that have noticeable play when locked
Sashes that have dropped or sagged
Projects that require periodic readjustment and maintenance
Doors where gasket pressure has decreased due to temperature changes
New buildings where structural settlement is expected
Refurbishment projects, to repair a faulty locking system without replacing the espagnolettes / main lock

Why Is the Alaks Adjustable Strike Plate Essential?

Prevents energy loss and boosts thermal insulation performance
Reduces noise transmission and improves acoustic insulation
Prevents damage and excessive stress on the espagnolette or main lock
Enhances security by reducing play and ensuring full locking engagement
Extends the service life of all door hardware and prevents premature failure

FAQs:

1. What does “adjustable” strike plate mean?

It means that the installation position of the strike plate on the frame can be adjusted by a few millimeters, allowing you to precisely align sash and frame so that the door closes tightly without play.

2. Is the Alaks strike plate suitable for UPVC profiles?

No. This model is specifically designed for aluminum profiles; its dimensions and geometry are not compatible with UPVC profile grooves.

3. When should an adjustable strike plate be used?

When there is play in the sash
When the door does not fully lock
When the sash has dropped
When airtightness / water‑tightness has decreased
During regular maintenance (typically every 3–5 years)

4. Is installation difficult?

Installation is very simple and requires only two screws. All adjustments are carried out by shifting the strike plate a few millimeters, without removing the espagnolette or main lock.
