SP-500 strike plate is a CompX Timberline Lock strike plate designed for CompX brand installations where a dedicated strike component is needed. The SP-500-1 designation identifies this specific strike plate for use in CompX Timberline Lock systems, which matters when matching parts across multiple jobs or service calls. The SAP description specifies this is a strike plate with no stringer, so it is suited to layouts where a stringer is not present behind the locking point. That detail helps on projects where cabinet design or framing does not support a stringer, but a consistent locking interface is still required. The web description states it can be used for any CompX brand, giving flexibility when standardizing around CompX locks throughout a shop or facility. A bright nickel finish defines the appearance of this strike plate and aligns with bright nickel hardware in the same installation.
The web description specifies that this strike plate is used with screws to the case side, so mounting is oriented directly to the cabinet case material rather than a separate rail or frame. That installation orientation makes the strike plate a direct partner to the lock body at the side of the case, which is useful in frameless or similar case constructions. By stating use when no stringer is available, the description indicates this plate is intended to create a reliable strike surface even when there is no intermediate structural member in the design. This layout detail can simplify planning, because the strike location is set by the case side and lock alignment instead of an added stringer component.
The SP-500 strike plate sits within the Locks and Latches and Lock Accessories category for CompX Timberline Lock, so it is oriented toward cabinet or casework locking applications that already specify CompX components. Being classed specifically as a strike in the Strikes product class identifies its role as the receiving element for the lock, which is central when laying out the engagement point between lock and cabinet structure. The SAP description states it is a strike plate with no stringer, pointing it toward cases where the lock engages directly at the cabinet construction without a separate stringer element. Using screws to the case side ties the strike location to the cabinet wall, which suits designs where the case side defines the interior geometry and lock engagement line.
The CompX Timberline Lock branding and the SP-500-1 manufacturer part number give a precise identity to this bright nickel strike plate, which supports repeat ordering and consistent alignment when multiple identical cabinets or lock stations are required. The fact that it can be used for any CompX brand means the same strike design can serve different CompX lock models while preserving a familiar mounting pattern and engagement face for installers. Mounting with screws to the case side defines a predictable relationship between the lock tongue and the strike, because both elements reference the same cabinet surface during layout. The no stringer description indicates that the strike is intended to act as the primary engagement point without depending on secondary framing, which streamlines alignment steps in projects where internal framing members vary from cabinet to cabinet.
The SP-500 strike plate is classified under Locks and Latches as a Lock Accessories part in the Strikes product class, so it serves as the receiving piece for a lock within a CompX system.
The SP-500 strike plate can be used for any CompX brand, allowing one strike style to serve different CompX lock bodies within the same project.
The web description states this strike plate uses screws to the case side, so it is fastened directly to the cabinet case where the lock engages.
The SAP description notes this is a strike plate with no stringer, so it is intended for cabinet designs where the lock engages without a separate stringer member.
The product name specifies a bright nickel finish, so the strike plate visually aligns with bright nickel CompX Timberline lock components on the same cabinet.
The manufacturer part number SP-500-1 identifies this specific CompX Timberline Lock strike plate, helping match the same component across drawings, orders, and service work.
The SP-500 strike plate, bright nickel, combines CompX Timberline Lock branding, SP-500-1 part identification, and a no stringer design to support case side mounting in CompX-based projects. Because it can be used for any CompX brand and is installed with screws to the case side, it offers a consistent strike solution across multiple CompX lock layouts in cabinets or similar casework. For projects built around CompX locks where the engagement point is at the case side rather than a separate stringer, this bright nickel strike plate provides a matched receiving component that follows the same part reference every time.
