Description
Preserve Timber Door Leaves with Commercial Door Protection
Internal timber doors in bustling commercial environments face constant abuse throughout the working day. Foot traffic, cleaning trolleys, heavy deliveries, and mobility equipment continuously knock the bottom edge of doors. Without proper protection, clean timber veneer splinter, paintwork chips, and wood fibres absorb moisture from floor cleaning machines. Over time, this daily wear and tear creates unsightly damage that costs a significant amount of money to repair or replace.
Installing the Kick Plate 711 x 152 x 1.2mm Aluminium Drilled provides an immediate barrier against repetitive impact. Measuring 711mm wide by 152mm high, this commercial hardware plate covers the standard lower vulnerable zone on common metric and imperial internal doors. The hardwearing satin anodised finish creates a protective barrier that absorbs impacts effortlessly, keeping premises looking professional, smart, and fully functional.
Architects, facility managers, and contractors select this heavy-duty plate for schools, hospitals, council buildings, and commercial offices. The pre-drilled and countersunk mounting pattern allows rapid installation straight onto timber doors without complicated on-site machining. By shielding the door leaf from everyday boot scuffs, heavy bags, and wheeled carts, this plate preserves your door investment for many years to come.
Key Operational Advantages for Busy Facilities
Resilient Satin Anodised Aluminium
Manufactured from high-grade 1.2mm thick aluminium, this plate delivers outstanding impact deflection without unnecessary bulk. The satin anodised finish forms an electrochemical layer that resists corrosion, tarnishing, and unsightly fingerprints. It cleans easily during routine floor maintenance and maintains its smart, contemporary look across years of daily service.
Precision Drilled and Countersunk Holes
Featuring eight precision-drilled fixing holes with factory countersinking, this plate enables flush screw seating straight out of the box. Flush fixings eliminate sharp edges and snag hazards for passing clothing, cleaning mops, and equipment. This smooth alignment ensures an attractive architectural finish on any timber door leaf.
Targeted Lower Impact Defense
Standing 152mm high, which matches the traditional 6-inch architectural profile, this plate shields the exact surface zone where shoes, vacuum cleaners, and sack barrows strike. The sturdy 18 gauge aluminium absorbs structural punishment, safeguarding the base of the door against cracking, splintering, and edge delamination.
Versatile Commercial Compatibility
With a width of 711mm, this kick plate suits common standard single leaf timber doors found throughout UK buildings. It provides ample door face coverage while maintaining standard clearance gaps alongside stops and architraves, ensuring smooth door movement without binding.
Step by Step Installation Guide
Stage 1 Surface Preparation
Examine the bottom face of the timber door. Ensure the wood is clean, dry, and free of dirt, loose paint, or projecting splinters before positioning your plate.
Stage 2 Alignment and Leveling
Position the plate horizontally along the bottom rail of the door. Leave a standard clearance gap of approximately 5mm from the bottom edge and sides so the plate moves clear of the frame stops.
Stage 3 Pilot Hole Drilling
Hold the plate firmly against the door face. Mark the positions through the eight countersunk holes and drill shallow pilot holes using a small timber drill bit to prevent wood splitting.
Stage 4 Final Fixing
Insert countersunk wood screws into the pre-drilled holes. Tighten evenly by hand or low-torque driver until every screw head sits completely flush with the aluminium surface.
