Defend your doorway with STRIKER BOX
The Strike Plate Problem
Doors have an inherent weak spot: the strike plate, typically a simple, flat, thin metal plate with two screws attached flush in a door jamb. In a forced entry situation, the strike plate is the first thing to be compromised. Even the strongest door is limited by the strength—or lack thereof—of the strike plate configuration. In this way, the strike plate is recognized as the weak link in the chain of door security.
The Crime Problem
- 1,300,000: Approximate annual US residential break-ins through exterior doors, a historically consistent figure.
- $2,000: Average dollar loss amount from residential burglaries, striking at the heart of financial security.
- 17%: The percentage of US households with burglar alarms, leaving many unprotected.
- 12 minutes: The crucial difference between the US average of 22 minutes combined alarm/police response time and the average 10 minutes burglars spend inside your home.
- 83%: Percentage of US households with no security alarms, relying solely on the physical strength of entry points for protection.
