The following general guidelines should also be considered during the installation review:
Read and follow the instructions on Product Template which includes drilling and
mounting directions.
When installing the strike plate, ensure that the long edge of the strike is at least 1/8"
[3.2mm] away from the door frame stop. The installed strike must allow the door to close
properly.
Provide at least 3/4” [19mm] clearance between the end of the lock and the corner of the
door frame for tool access.
The entire mounting area for the lock bracket and housing must be a flat surface.
When installing the lock in the vertical position it is recommended that the strike be
mounted with the roll pin oriented toward the top.
Check the external and internal areas of the marked door and frame for any mounting
obstacles and make necessary adjustments to avoid these obstacles. Use the template
provided for marking the mounting locations of the lock housing mounting bracket and
strike.
The installed lock (E-laminate) face and the strike plate must be aligned so that they are
centered with each other.
STRIKE/LOCK ALIGNMENT IS IMPORTANT FOR LOCK SYSTEM STATUS SENSING
FUNCTIONS AND FOR THE OPTIMUM MAGNALOCK HOLDING FORCE
MOUNTING OF THE STRIKE:
1. Fully close the door.
2. Carefully fold the template and place into desired position.
3. ON THE DOOR: Center punch the strike and actuator mounting holes marked [A] on the
template.
4. ON THE FRAME: Center punch the slotted lock mounting bracket holes marked [A] on the
template.
5. Drill the two (2) holes required for the strike in the door as noted on the template.
6. Using a hammer, install the provided roll pin into the back of the strike plate.
7. Use steps 8 thru 16 for installation of the iMXDa or steps 17 thru 22 for the iEXDa strike
plate.
(iMXDa):
8. Mark and drill the two (2) 3/16” [4.8mm] diameter holes for the pins of the SB-MXD ON THE
OUTSIDE OF THE DOOR – these holes are designated [C] on the template. NOTE: The
SB-MXD may be used to mark the two (2) pin holes by inserting the sex bolt into the
hole from the outside of the door and lightly tapping the head with a hammer so that the
pins mark the door where the holes are to be located. (Cover the head with a piece of
cardboard to protect from marring if necessary).
9. Install the sex bolt through the hole in the door from the outside, engaging the pins into the
holes.
10. Thread the cap onto the end of the sex bolt inside of the door. Using a wrench, tighten the
assembly.
11. In the following order, assemble the strike mounting screw, strike bushing, strike plate, 1 to
3 rubber washer(s), and the steel washer. Use of two (2) rubber washers is recommended.
12. Apply thread locking compound to the strike screw threads.
13. Thread the strike mounting screw into the sex bolt just a few threads, while aligning the roll
pin into the hole in the door.
14. Pull on the assembly (strike) to expose the end of the spring loaded plunger.
15. With the plunger being held extracted, use a wrench (or vise grip pliers) on the plunger end
and a 3/16” hex key wrench in the socket head of the screw to tighten the assembly.
16. Release the assembly.
(iEXDa):
17. Install the sex bolt through the hole in the door from the outside.
18. In the following order, assemble the strike mounting screw, strike bushing, strike plate and
rubber washer(s) together.
19. Apply thread locking compound to the strike mounting screw threads.
20. While holding the assembly together, thread the strike mounting screw into the sex bolt just
a few threads, while aligning the roll pin into the hole in the door.
21. Pull on the assembly (strike) to align and engage the knurled potion of the sex bolt into the
hole.
