Abstract: A reinforcement plate for use in attaching a doorjamb bracket to a doorjamb, the plate member having an aperture through which the arm of a conventional doorjamb bracket may be inserted. A plurality of holes in the plate member are available for receiving fasteners to secure the reinforcement plate to the doorjamb. The base of the conventional doorjamb bracket is received within an chambered area in the plate member so that the reinforcement plate lies substantially flush with the surface of the doorjamb. At least one opening in the reinforcement plate is positioned and shaped to allow a fastener to extend simultaneously through both the reinforcement plate and a hole associated with the doorjamb bracket so as to simultaneously attach both the reinforcement plate and the doorjamb bracket to the doorjamb.
