1. Top of Door — Mount here for best results, as
this allows flexibility against direct attacks against
the door. Mount close to the corner opposite the
hinges. (see Fig. 1)
2. Middle of Door, Opposite the Hinges — This
works well in most situations. If mounting is
required here, mount halfway up the door for
greatest strength. Add extra springs to the
armature assembly (see Fig. 4, pg. 5).
3. Bottom of the Door – Not recommended as dirt
build up could affect operation.
Installation – Cut the Door Frame (See Fig. 2, pg. 4):
1. Find the Center Line:
a. Close the door and let it rest naturally.
b. Use a pencil to trace the position of the outside face of the door on the door frame. If
mounting on the top of the door, this line should be near the top corner away from the door
hinges. Leave enough room to mount the magnet assembly in the door. If mounting on the
side of the door, this line should be drawn near the center of the door, but not near any
physical locking mechanisms.
c. Measure the width of the door, then draw a line on the door frame parallel to the first line at
that distance. These two lines will show where the door rests relative to the door frame when
it is closed.
d. Measure and trace a line between these two lines. This is the door frame center line.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the place you choose to mount the magnet assembly is clear of
obstructions and door adjustment bolts before making any cuts. Allow enough
room inside the door frame at both ends of the magnet assembly to install the
mounting tabs.
2. Tape the door frame template to the door frame, lining the template’s door frame center line
with the door center line you just drew.
For Hollow Metal Door Frames:
1. Cut out the rectangular piece of metal as shown on the door frame template.
2. Drill the four holes (two on each end) as shown on the door frame template.
3. Using the included metal screws, mount the mounting tabs.
4. Run the wires.

Installation Notes:
Install the magnet assembly into the door frame before installing the armature assembly into the
door. The magnet assembly requires space to run wires, as well as space for the recessed portion
of the unit. However, make sure that the position selected for the magnet assembly leaves enough
room in the door to install the armature assembly.

Wiring Diagram:
1. Set for power supply type (12VDC or
24VDC) – Use the jumpers to set voltage
setting (see Fig. 3).
2. Connect to power
3. One terminal positive, one to negative
(non-polarized)
NOTE: When mounting vertically near the center of the door, disassemble the armature
assembly and add the two included springs. This improves the unit’s push-off. (See
Fig. 4, pg. 5).
1. Determine where to mount the armature assembly in the door. It should line up with the
magnet assembly. (See Fig. 4).
2. Draw a line between the front and back door faces. This is the door center line (see Fig. 2).
3. Tape the door template to the door, lining the door template’s door center line with the door
center line you just drew.
For Hollow Metal Doors:
1. Cut out the rectangular piece of metal as shown on the door template.
2. Drill the four holes (two on each end) as shown on the door template.
3. Using the included metal screws, mount the mounting tabs.
For Wood Doors:
1. Rout or cut a 15/8"(42mm) deep, 513/16" x 13/16" (147x30mm) hole for the cavity of the
armature assembly as shown in the door template.
2. Rout a 3/16" (5mm) deep, 5/8" x 13/16" (17x30mm) hole at each end of the cavity.

1. Double-check your work – Make sure the
magnet assembly and armature assembly
line up properly. Make any adjustments.
(see Fig. 5)
2. Using the screws provided, mount the
magnet assembly onto the door frame, and
the armature assembly onto the door.
3. Use washers or flat pieces of metal to act
as shims as necessary to mount the
magnet assembly and armature assembly
flush with surface.
4. Close the door and note the gap between
the armature assembly and the magnet
assembly. Using the included hex wrench,
adjust the nickel-plated portion of the
armature assembly to make the gap as
small as possible without interfering with the
opening and closing of the door.
5. Apply power and test the operation.

Electric Shear Lock
If the shear lock does not activate when
the door is closed
 The magnet assembly is too far away from the armature
assembly.
 Adjust the distance between the magnet and armature
assembly by adding more shims under the back portion of
the armature assembly.
 Re-adjust the position of the armature assembly or the
magnet assembly.
Poor attraction between the magnet
assembly and the armature assembly
 Check the power supply, and make sure it is according to
specifications.
 If the power supply is adequate, replace the unit.
If the magnet assembly pulls the
armature assembly, but the door can
still be opened
 Check to make sure the locking bolts are in the armature
assembly’s keeper hole when the unit is activated.
If the door can be kicked in or pushed in
with your shoulder
 Check to make sure the magnet assembly and armature
assembly surfaces are clean and free from dirt.
 Even a little dirt could reduce the attraction between the two
surfaces.
For any other problems
 Test again
 Replace the unit
 The problem unit can also be substituted for a working unit in
another door frame to see if it works there.
