Note: Not all parts will be used in every installation.
1. Select the type of faceplate that will be used. See "Sample Installations," on page 5. If the door is pre-cut
for a strike, skip to step 6.
2. Measure and mark the door latch line and the center line of the door. See "Measuring the Latch Line &
Center Lines," page 3.
3. Apply the included stick-on template to the door frame. See "Mounting the Template," page 3.
4. Prepare the door frame for installation and mount the trim plate if needed. See "Preparing the Door
Frame" and "Mounting the Trim Plate," page 4.
5. If the door frame material is unsuitable for mounting the strike directly, use the included mounting tabs for
installation. This is recommended for aluminum door frames. See "Mounting the Strike Using Mounting
Tabs," page 4.
6. Program for either fail-safe or fail-secure operation. See "Selecting Fail-Secure or Fail-Safe," page 6.

Mounting the Template:
Measuring the Latch Line & Center Lines:
1. Measure the center line of the door. This is shown
as "Y"on the diagram to the left.
2. Measure the distance from the door latch to the
edge of the door frame. This is the door latch line.
This is shown as "X"on the diagrams below.

g

1. Measure distance "X" from the side of the door frame, and distance "Y" from the top of the
door frame. Use a pencil to mark the exact spot where the two lines intersect.
2. Carefully peel off the short, thin tab in the center of the stick-on template. When placed
against the frame, this opening in the template will easily line up with the X-Y mark.
3. Peel the template from the backing, and carefully apply it to the door frame.

Note: The mounting tabs are onl
y
used for
aluminum and metal door frames. This is
commonly done when retrofitting door frames.
To mount the strike where the hollow door frame
material is unsuitable for mounting, do the followin
g
:
1. Punch or drill holes according to the template
for installation of the mounting tabs, and the
anchor nuts that reinforce them.
2. When installing, do not over-tighten the screws
as small adjustments may be required to
secure a snug fit for the door strike.
Mounting the Trim Plate:
Mounting the Strike Using Mounting Tabs:
Mounting Tabs
Using the stick-on template as a guide:
1. Drill holes for mounting the strike, and cut a
hole for the face-plate size being used. It is
recommended to cut the hole slightly
smaller than necessary.
2. Use a file to finish the shaping of the frame.
This will improve the fit and finish of the
installation.
Preparing the Door Frame:
Note: Trim plate is optional and ma
y
not be
required in all installations. Only use the trim
p
late to cover an
y
g
a
p
s in the door frame.
1. If the hole cut for the faceplate is too large
or is jagged, the trim plate can be mounted
over the hole to improve the appearance of
the installation.
2. Screw the trim plate into the mounting holes
at the top and bottom of the door strike
using the included trim plate screws before
installing the strike to the door frame.
