Door escutcheon PN OK-P6 BIRA — metal keyhole cover, model OK-P6

PN OK-P6 BIRA door escutcheon is a metal keyhole cover designed to protect and finish the keyway area of interior doors. Model OK-P6 provides a flat, durable plate that conceals the lock opening while maintaining access to the keyhole. The escutcheon is intended for use where a separate cover is required to improve the appearance of a door and to protect the lock aperture from damage and dirt.

Advantages

The escutcheon is made of metal for increased durability and resistance to everyday wear. Its slim profile ensures minimal visual impact while providing a neat finish around the keyhole. The design supports proper alignment of lock hardware and helps reduce drafts and debris entry through the keyway. Installation is compatible with common mortise and cylinder locks used in residential and commercial interior doors.

Suitable for

• Residential interior doors with separate keyhole covers
• Commercial interior doors in offices and service premises
• Replacement or upgrade of existing worn escutcheons
• Doors where a clean, finished keyhole appearance is required

Key specifications

• Material: metal construction for strength and wear resistance
• Function: keyhole cover for concealing and protecting the lock opening
• Profile: slim, flat plate that fits around a standard keyway
• Compatibility: designed for use with standard interior lock cylinders and mortise locks
• Finish: decorative metal surface suitable for visible door installation

How to use

Position the escutcheon over the door keyhole so that the keyway is aligned with the opening in the plate. Secure the escutcheon to the door using the appropriate fasteners for your door thickness and material, ensuring the plate sits flush and the key can be inserted and turned without obstruction. After installation, check alignment with the lock cylinder and adjust if necessary to ensure smooth operation.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use screws or fasteners suitable for the door material and avoid overtightening to prevent distortion of the plate. Periodically clean the metal surface with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly to maintain appearance. When replacing an old escutcheon, verify that the keyway dimensions match the new cover to ensure proper fit and function.
