Installation Directions
Preparing the Strike
CAUTION!
Before connecting any device at the installation site, verify input voltage using a multimeter.
Many power supplies and low voltage transformers operate at higher levels than listed. Any input voltage exceeding
10% of the solenoid rating may cause severe damage to the unit and will void the warranty.

Preparing the Frame
NOTE:
Schlage L9000 and Yale 8700 locksets must use the
template labeled “Schlage L9000 & Yale 8700 Locks
Only.” All other locksets should use the template
labeled “Cylindrical Lockset” or Mortise Lockset.”
5. PREPARE the frame for lockset using appropriate
cutout template, as shown on Page 4.

10. REMOVE the Fire Door Safety Screw as shown in
Figure 4.
11. LOOSEN the two #2-56 screws located on the back
of the strike, but DO NOT REMOVE them.
12. MOVE screws from the bottom of the hole (Fail
Secure mode position) to the top hole (Fail
Safe mode position).
13. TIGHTEN the bottom screw first (wire side), and THEN
TIGHTEN the top screw.
NOTE 1:
For 12 VAC, 12 VDC, or 16 VAC, the pigtail marked
“12 VDC” is used.
NOTE 2:
For 24VAC or 24 VDC, the pigtail marked “24 VDC”
is used.
1. SELECT the appropriate plug in connector that matches
system power and electrically CONNECT as shown in
Figure 1, “12 VDC to 24 VDC Conversion.”
NOTE:
The state of switch is listed for an unpowered strike
and LBM in unactuated (door open) position.
2. IF using a Latchbolt Monitor (LBM) or Latchbolt Strike
Monitor (LBSM),
THEN COMPLETE wiring in accordance with Figures 2,
“Latchbolt Monitor,” and Figure 3, “Strike Monitor,” on
Page 3.
CAUTION
Converting the 4500 Series Strike to Fail Safe
Mode negates the unit’s fire rating.
NOTE:
This unit ships in Fail Secure mode.
3. VERIFY that the strike is in the correct mode of
operation.
4.
IF
the 4500 Series Electric Strike must be converted to
Fail Safe mode,
THEN
CONVERT in accordance with Figure 4,
“Fail Safe Conversion,” on Page 3.
6. CHOOSE the appropriate faceplate for the strike as
shown in Figure 5, “Faceplate Options,” on Page 3.
7. CONNECT wires from the power source to the strike.
8. INSTALL the electric strike unit in jamb cutout, using
#12-24 x 1/2” Mounting Screws provided.
9.
IF
horizontal adjustment is needed,
THEN
GO TO “Adjusting the Horizonal” section on
Page 3.
14. VERIFY the strike is now in the Fail Safe operation mode.
15.
IF
the strike still operates as Fail Secure,
THEN
ENSURE the screws are fully seated in the
top position.
Adjusting the Horizontal
16.
IF
horizontal adjustment is needed,
THEN
ADD 1 or 2 keeper shims as shown in
Figure 6, “Horizontal Adjustment.”
a. USE the #4-40 x 1/8” keeper shim screws if adding
one shim.
b. USE the #4-40 x 3/16” keeper shim screws if adding
two shims.
NOTE 1:
A Non-handed offset faceplate is provided for use with
mortise locksets. The mortise lock deadlatch should be
depressed by the faceplate when the door is closed.
NOTE 2:
A Non-handed center-lined faceplate is provided for use
with cylindrical locksets.
