Strike plate for mortise deadbolts brass / stainless steel (304) | GSV-No. 3241
SKU: 3241
Standard product
The strike plate for mortise deadbolts, available in brass or alternatively stainless steel (304), GSV-No. 3241, is a precision-engineered component designed to ensure secure and reliable engagement of mortise lock deadbolts in doors, cabinets, and furniture. Serving as the receiving element for the deadbolt, the strike plate provides stable closure and proper alignment, which is essential for smooth operation and long-term reliability of the locking system. Its design prevents misalignment, binding, or unintended movement of the bolt, ensuring consistent performance over repeated use.
Manufactured from high-quality brass, the strike plate offers excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. Brass maintains its form and function even under frequent use, while simultaneously protecting both the bolt and surrounding door or frame surfaces from wear or damage. The alternative stainless steel (304) option provides increased resistance to corrosion, chemical exposure, and environmental influences, making it particularly suitable for applications in humid, exterior, or industrial environments.
The strike plate is precisely machined to allow the deadbolt to engage securely and smoothly, ensuring reliable locking and unlocking without excessive friction or play. Its robust construction provides dimensional stability and mechanical integrity, supporting the long-term durability of both the lock and the door structure.
GSV-No. 3241 strike plate represents a technically reliable, durable, and versatile solution for mortise deadbolt systems. Its combination of high-quality materials, precise engineering, and adaptable use in both brass and stainless steel makes it an ideal choice for professional door installations, furniture manufacturing, and repair applications where security, longevity, and functional reliability are paramount.

The hand of door for mortise locks is defined as:
if the door is closed and the hinges are visible on the right/left, then the door is right/left hand. The door is therefore hinged on the right/left and according by definition of DIN right/left.
Or: if you grasp the handle with your right hand and latch and deadbolt show to the left, then it is right hand. If you grasp the handle with your left hand latch and deadbolt show to the right, it is a left hand.
Rim locks
The hand of door for rim locks is defined as:
if the door is closed and the hinges are visible on the right/left, then the door is right /left hand. The door is therefore hinged on the right/left and according to the definition DIN “right/left".
In addition to the designation “left” and “right”, it is to be indicated whether the locks are intended for inward or outward opening doors.
Sliding door mortises
The hand of door for sliding door mortises is the same for right and left. Sliding rim door locks different for left and right doors.
When ordering, always indicate “left” or “right”.
| Latch
The lock latch keeps the door shut. In order to open the door, it must be retracted. |
| Type of latch design | Illustration |
| single latch |  |
| anti-vibration or three-piece latch |  |
| rolling latch adjustable |  |
| POM-latch for strike dampening |  |
| Deadbolt
The deadbolt regulates the access rights through the turning motion of the cylinder by key. The deadbolt is being driven out or retracted through the turning motion. |
 |
| Faceplate
The faceplate is the visible part of the lock case. The faceplate, the latch and the deadbolt are the only visible parts of a mortise. |
 |
Handle hub
The handle hub takes the square spindle of the handle in order to retract the latch inside the lock through the turning motion of the same. This process allows the opening of the door. The shipbuilding norm specifies a 9mm square with a 2° incline. Schwepper supplies also with 8mm square, special contour or 0° incline on request. |
 |
WC-/privacy hub
The WC hub takes the square spindle of the olive or thumb turn, that retracts or drives out the deadbolt from the inside - analogue to the turning motion of the cylinder. The shipbuilding norm specifies a 7mm square. Schwepper supplies also with 8mm square on request. |
 |
| Dimension | Illustration | |
| Backset
The backset is the distance from the front edge of the faceplate to the center of the cylinder hole respectively handle hub square. The rear backset behind the center line remains always 27mm. |
 |
|
| Distancing
The distancing is the dimension from the center of the handel hub and the center of the hole for profile cylinder / privacy (WC) / key. The industry standard in shipbuilding is 75mm. |
 |
|
| Latch protrusion
The latch protrudes according to the industrial DIN standard in shibuilding 14mm. Other technical standards for latch protrusion are: 16 mm according to DOT (Department of Transportation) 19 mm according to USCG (US Coast Guard) |
