5. ELECTRIC STRIKE INSTALLATION
5.1 STRIKE INSTALLATION
THE POWER ACCESS MODEL 2300DL DOOR OPENER IS DESIGNED SO THAT THE DOOR CAN STILL BE MANUALLY
OPENED WITHOUT ACTIVATING THE UNIT. THEREFORE, IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE ANOTHER MECHANICAL
FEATURE TO HOLD THE DOOR SHUT WHEN NOT IN OPERATION.
5.1.1 BLANK STRIKE PLATE
IF NO MECHANICAL HOLD IS REQUIRED, THE SUPPLIED BLANK LATCH PLATE CAN BE INSTALLED IN PLACE OF
THE EXISTING LATCH PLATE THAT IS CURRENTLY INSTALLED WITH THE DOOR HARDWARE.
NOTE: A CABINET STYLE MAGNET OR BALL DETENT (NOT SUPPLIED) MAY BE USED TO HOLD THE DOOR IN
PLACE.
5.1.2 ELECTRIC STRIKE
POWER ACCESS MODEL 2300DL IS DESIGNED TO WORK WITH 24VDC ELECTRIC STRIKES. IF AN ELECTRIC
STRIKE IS SUPPLIED, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGING FROM THE ELECTRIC STRIKE
MANUFACTURER TO ASSEMBLE THE STRIKE AND INSTALL IT IN THE DOOR JAMB.
NOTE: BEFORE INSTALLATION MAKE SURE THE STRIKE IS SET TO YOUR DESIRED MODE –FAIL SAFE OR
FAIL SECURE. FAIL SAFE MODE MEANS THAT IF THE STRIKE WERE TO FAIL, IT’S LATCH WILL SWING FREELY.
IF IN FAIL SECURE MODE AND THE STRIKE WERE TO FAIL, THE LATCH WILL STAY LOCKED. THEREFORE A
PERSON WOULD BE REQUIRED TO TURN THE DOOR KNOB TO OPEN THE DOOR. THE MODEL 4560S IS
PROVIDED IN THE FAIL SECURE MODE, WHICH IS RECOMMENDED.

5.2 ELECTRIC STRIKE POSITIONING
WHEN INSTALLING THE ELECTRIC STRIKE AND FACE PLATE, POSITION IT IN THE DOOR FRAME, FRONT TO BACK, SO
THAT WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED THERE IS MINIMAL GAP BETWEEN THE STRIKE PLATE LATCHING SURFACE AND
THE DOOR LATCH. WHEN CLOSED, THE DOOR SHOULD HAVE LITTLE TO NO WIGGLE ROOM.
STRIKE PLATE LATCHING SURFACE. THIS IS
WHAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE DOOR
LATCH. ADDITIONAL SHIMS PROVIDED WITH THE
STRIKE CAN BE USED IF THERE IS STILL TOO
MUCH WIGGLE ROOM BETWEEN THE DOOR
LATCH AND THE STRIKE LATCHING SURFACE.

5.3 CONNECTING ELECTRIC STRIKE TO MODEL 2300DL
ONCE INSTALLED AND POSITIONED, USE THE TWO TWISTED 12 FOOT LOW VOLTAGE WIRES TO CONNECT TO THE
TERMINALS OF THE ELECTRIC STRIKE. CAREFULLY FOLLOW “SUPPLEMENTAL MODEL 4560S ELECTRIC STRIKE
INSTALLATION GUIDE” PROVIDED WITH THE MODEL 4560S ELECTRIC STRIKE. WHEN THE DOOR OPENER IS ACTIVATED IT
WILL SEND A SINGLE SHOT 24VDC PULSE TO THE STRIKE TO RELEASE TENSION AND ALLOW THE DOOR TO OPEN. ONCE
CONNECTED, ROUTE THE WIRES IN THE DOOR JAMB SO THEY DO NOT OBSTRUCT ANY DOOR MOVEMENT.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW THE WIRES TO BECOME PINCHED OR PIERCED.
NOTE: THE SUPPLIED STRIKE (MODEL 4560S) HAS UNIVERSAL POLARITY. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHICH WIRE IS
CONNECTED TO WHICH TERMINAL.
