5.2.1.1. Strike Installation
Using Figure 2, the template provided and the following step-by-step installation
instructions, complete the installation of the strike into the door.
1. Fold the template and place into position on door/frame at desired mounting
location. Mark the strike center hole on the door and the center position of the
two (2) slotted mounting bracket holes on the door frame.
2. Drill one (1) 3/8” [9.5mm] diameter hole through door (at mark for strike center
hole), then drill 1/2” [12.7mm] diameter through door from opposite side for
sex bolt (Item #7).
3. From the side of the door that the strike will be mounted, drill two (2) 1/2”
[12.7mm] diameter X 1-3/8” [34.9mm] deep holes for the roll pin bushings
(Item #1).
4. Insert the two (2) strike roll pin bushings into the holes in the door (either side
of strike center hole).
5. Obtain the strike (Item #3) and place on a clean, flat surface. Using a
hammer, insert and lightly tap to install the two (2) roll pins (Item #2) into
the two (2) 1/4” [6.4mm] diameter recesses of the strike. Note: Care should
be taken when installing roll pins into the strike. Excessive impact to the strike
or over-driving the pins into the recesses may distort the contact surface of the
strike which will affect the holding force of the lock.
6. Insert the strike mounting bushing (Item #4) and the 5/16-18 UNC X 1-3/4”
long socket flat head screw (Item #5) through the center hole of the strike.
7. Install two (2) of the neoprene washers (Item #6) over the screw on the
opposite side (roll pin side) of the strike. Note: A third washer is provided but
is normally not used. It may be used however, if required to take up any
additional spacing that cannot be taken up by adjusting the lock mount bracket.
8. Insert the strike mounting screw (with washers) into the 1/2” [12.7mm]
diameter strike center hole in the door while aligning the roll pins of the strike
assembly into the roll pin bushings.
9. Start the sex bolt (Item #7) into the 1/2” [12.7mm] diameter hole from the
opposite side of the door. Do not fully seat the sex bolt against the surface of
the door at this time, but thread the sex bolt onto the end of the strike
mounting screw. Using a 3/16” hex wrench, continue to thread the strike
mounting screw into the sex bolt while ensuring that the assembly maintains a
straight (perpendicular) alignment to the door.
10.Using a hammer and a 3/16” hex wrench, gradually tighten the screw into the
sex bolt until it is snug, and then tap the head of the sex bolt toward the face of
the door. Keep repeating this procedure to slowly “walk” the sex bolt into place
(head against door face) – this ensures a straight (perpendicular) alignment of
the strike assembly to the door. Note: Do not over tighten. When the strike
is fully installed there should be some play or flexing of the strike around the
washers. This allows the lock to pull the strike into the correct alignment for
maximum holding force.
