Types of Kickplates

Screw Mounted Kickplates

Screw mount is the most secure and most common type of mount for kickplates. Using a screw mount kickplate will leave screw mount holes in your door if you ever remove it, so be sure you're ready to install the kickplate before ordering. Screw mount kickplates can be installed on wooded, metal, or fiberglass doors.

Magnetic Mount Kickplates

Magnetic mount kickplates are used on metal doors. For this type, the entire back side of the kickplate is coated with a layer of magnetic material to give a nice, secure hold on the door so that it will not move when repeatedly opened and closed.

NOTE: Magnetic mount kickplates can only be used on metal doors. Your door surface needs to be clean before mounting; otherwise, the mount may not install properly.

Adhesive Mount Kickplates

Adhesive mount kickplates are used on any door that you do not want to drill with screws. The adhesive mount kickplates have two adhesive strips on the back of the kickplate. To install, remove the adhesive backing and apply firmly to a clean door. Make sure you line everything up and install the kickplate where you want it the first time, as the adhesive cannot be reapplied. Like magnetic mount kickplates, adhesive mount door kickplates give you a clean look without mounting screws. The primary difference here is that with adhesive mount kickplates, you can install the kickplate to nearly any type of door surface.

Give your front door new life and protect it at the same time with a quality kickplate.

How wide should a kick plate be?

Kick plate widths can vary depending on the door size. You want to order a kickplate that is 2 inches shorter than your door width, that way it doesn't get in the way of the door trim and weatherstripping. A quick measurement will tell you what width you'll need for your door.
