INSTALLATION

Electric Strikes

Instructions
1. Determine the vertical centerline of the door lock face and
the horizontal centerline of the latch.
IMPORTANT: When determining the horizontal centerline
observe the following:
FOR MORTISE LOCKS: Align the angled ramps of the lip
bracket with the deadlock trigger of the mortise latch.
FOR CYLINDRICAL LOCKS: Align the center of the latch with
the center of the strike opening.**

5. Attach the strike insert (coil unit or “motor”) to the
lip bracket with the small machine screws provided.
(M4 x 9.5mm)
6. Attach the strike faceplate to the lip bracket with machine
screws (M4 x 9.5mm) provided. (It may be desirable to leave
these screws slightly loose to facilitate insertion into the
doorframe.)

3. Prepare the doorframe for cutting as per the appropriate
drawing.

7. Connect the incoming wiring from the power supply to the
terminal screws on the strike insert. RCI door strikes are
not polarity sensitive although be certain to observe proper
polarity if a suppression diode is required for access control
applications.

4. If required, install “no weld” mounting brackets as per the
instructions on page 3.

8. Install the door strike in the doorframe using the screws
provided.

NOTE: Specifications subject to change without notice.
* Dimension F is measured from face of mounting tab to face of frame.
** Dimension X on the drawing is determined by the vertical centerline of the door. If the latch incorporates a deadlocking pin additional steps will be
necessary to ensure proper operation of the deadlocking pin. Measure the thickness of the deadlocking pin and add this thickness to Dimension X to
relocate the vertical centerline an appropriate distance on the frame.
†
For wood frame door installations, substitute #12 wood screws for dimension M.
When installing an electric strike on an inactive door of a set of double doors, it can be treated the same as a frame installation in most situations.
For more information contact the Technical Service Department.

4 & 7 Series Installation Instructions (Continued)

Mounting Tab Kit Instructions
Mounting Tab
(2 incl.)

The mounting tab kit is for use with aluminum and steel frames
that do not have factory installed mounting tabs for electric
strike installation.
1. Prepare the frame as shown in the approximate drawing.
Fasten the mounting tab to the faceplate of the strike,
selecting the appropriate shims for the installation.

Self-Adhesive
Mounting Shim (8
incl.)

12-24 Machine
Screws (2 each to
keep tab straight)

2. Using the assembled strike and tabs as a template, place
against the frame and mark the mounting hole locations that
suit best. Remove and drill two 3/16” holes in frame for each
mounting tab and countersink the frame.
3. Remove the tabs from the faceplate and install in the frame
using the 12-24 x 3/8” machine screws supplied. Tabs are
zinc plated and drilled and tapped for this purpose.
4. Make final electrical connections per wiring instructions
and mount strike to the tabs with the 12-24 x 3/8” machine
screws.

Frame

Trim Plate Instructions
1. Position the Trim Plate on the frame cut-out to verify fit and
coverage.
2. Adjust cut-out if required.
3. Bend the four tabs to hold the Trim Plate onto the frame.
4. For a tighter fit, pre-bend the two long flange tabs before
sliding onto the frame where space allows.
5. Secure the strike to the frame as per strike installation
instructions.

4 & 7 Series Troubleshooting
1.

Problem

Possible Causes

Solution

Strike will not lock or
unlock properly

No power to the strike

Using a multimeter, confirm that you have the correct output
voltage at the power supply.
Using a multimeter, confirm that you have the correct input
voltage at the strike.
Confirm that all connections are tight and secure.

Incorrect voltage used

Confirm that the insert and power supply are the proper voltage.

Strike is binding

Confirm that the strike keeper functions when the door is open. If
the strike operates correctly, adjust door or strike to eliminate any
backpressure.
Confirm that the strike cavity depth is compatible with the lock
set.

2. Strike releases but

Improper power supply

Replace the power supply with a correct voltage AC power supply.
If this cannot be done, a DC piezo buzzer can be installed.

3. Strike makes a buzzing

Improper power supply

Replace the power supply with a correct voltage DC power supply.

Improper application

A strike connected to an AC power supply will buzz unless a
rectifier is installed.

Improper voltage

Confirm that you have the correct output voltage at the power supply.

Improper installation

Confirm that all connections are tight and secure.

Improper installation

Check alignment of dead latch and lip bracket ramp.

Door has sagged

Adjust door alignment.

won’t buzz

sound

4. Strike has a burnt smell

5. Mortise lock not dead
latching

Cylindrical dead latching
not working

Improper installation /
Door has warped

Adjust the strike horizontal adjustment. (See Installation
Instructions).

Door won’t latch

Door has warped or sagged
creating excessive back
pressure

Re-align door in frame or replace.
