Shootbolt strike plates and components are critical pieces in multipoint locking systems for casement, awning, and swing doors. The strike plate is a sturdy metal piece mounted to the door frame or window jamb, designed to receive the shootbolt , an arrow-shaped locking point that, when engaged, extends into the strike to anchor the sash or door securely in place. These systems are widely used in modern and replacement windows and doors to provide enhanced security, weather resistance, and smooth operation.

How Shootbolt Strike Plates Work

When a multipoint lock is actuated, shootbolts travel from the lock mechanism into precisely positioned strike plates installed on the head, sill, or jamb. This engagement prevents forced entry by securing the window or door at multiple points. Strike plates vary in size and shape to match different profiles and placements, such as right-hand sill or left-hand head configurations (see the RH Sill / LH Head keeper or LH Sill / RH Head keeper for examples).

Common Applications and Compatibility

These parts are most commonly found in systems like the AmesburyTruth Sentinel XP25 Swing Multipoint Lock and P3000 series, supporting both residential and commercial doors and windows. Each shootbolt component is engineered for compatibility with specific frame materials and profiles, such as the P3000 shootbolt strike plate and P3000 double flat strike plate. Be sure to select the correct plate or extension tip for your active or passive sash, handedness (left/right), and lock mechanism.

Features and Specifications

  • Manufactured from stainless steel (304SS) for corrosion resistance and durability
  • Available in various dimensions and thicknesses to fit different locking points
  • Support for 16mm and 20mm extension tips and shootbolts with 1 inch throw
  • Designed for compatibility with AmesburyTruth P3000, Sentry, and Sentinel Series multipoint locks

For example, you can find a 16mm shootbolt extension tip for precise fit or a Sentinel upper shootbolt extension when refurbishing or upgrading the top locking point on a multipoint lock.

Installation and Replacement Tips

For a secure installation, always align the strike plate with the path of the shootbolt and use the correct mounting screws for your frame material. If you are replacing a worn or damaged plate, verify the handedness and location (head, sill, jamb) to avoid ordering errors. In most cases, installation is straightforward: remove the old plate, align the new one, and secure it with supplied or existing fasteners. Extension tips can be swapped or replaced to restore full locking travel in aging systems.
