Consideration of the free 
movement of the exit device 
latch and the keeper (jaws)  
of the RIM strike. 

Ensure the latch of the exit 
device and the keeper (jaws) 
of the electric strike have free 
and easy movement to operate 
together, with a minimum of 
friction. In this, a small amount 

of silicone lubricate on both the latch and jaws of the strike 
will improve the operation… but please be careful not to over 
spray. 

Consideration for a 
professionally finished retrofit 
installation. 

Replacing electric strikes used with 
cylindrical or mortise locksets, 
with an exit device and RIM strike, 
will leave holes in the door and 
door frame that must be filled or 
covered. Cover or plug holes and 
check that new cover plates are 

flush with the frame… and will not interfere with the RIM strike.
