ABSTRACT:
The kick resistant door assembly comprises a doorway framed by at least two door jamb segments, a door mounted by hinges to one of the segments and a specialized plate assembly which mounts to both a door jamb segment and to adjacent framing studs. The plate assembly has an opening for receiving a bolt and an extended portion for reinforcing the latch of the door against forcible entry. The assembly may further comprise reinforcing rods attached either directly to the hinges or to an intermediate reinforcing hinge plate. In either configuration, upon installation the reinforcing rods extend into the door as well as through the door jamb segment into the wall studs. The assembly may yet further comprise the use of additional plate assemblies mounted adjacent the hinges of the door with the openings of these additional plate assemblies aligned for receiving the reinforcing rods of the hinges.
