Rim Exit Device Template
1.
Position the Rim Exit Device
drilling template on the inside of
the door using the Rim Exit
Device horizontal and vertical
reference centerlines previ-
ously established and shown in
Figure 4. Tape the template to
the door.
2.
Center punch all hole positions
onto the door.
Note:
It is very important to
accurately center punch all
holes since hole locations
establish the distance be-
tween the Rim Exit Device
and the CDX-09 lock assem-
bly.
3.
Transfer the lock horizontal reference centerline from the Rim Exit Device template to the door and door
jamb. This centerline will be used to position the CDX-09 lock assembly drilling template on the door, and
locate the center mounting hole for the strike.
4.
Transfer the lock strike mounting hole centerlines from the Rim Exit Device template to the door jamb. These
centerlines will be used to position the CDX-09 strike in the correct vertical location on the door jamb.
Install CDX-09 Lock Strike
1.
Horizontal positioning of the CDX-09 lock
assembly drilling template is referenced to the
CDX-09 lock strike, so this strike must be
installed before the CDX-09 lock assembly
template can be positioned on the door. #10-32
machine screws are recommended for a metal
door jam and #10 thread forming screws are
recommended for a wood jamb.
2.
Position the CDX-09 lock strike on the door
jamb face as shown in Figure 5. Align the strike
vertically so that the top and bottom strike
mounting counterbored holes are centered
over the lock strike mounting hole centerlines.
Align the strike horizontally so that the strike
edge adjacent to the open tang is 3/32” from
the door jamb stop.
3.
Center punch the two slotted strike hole
locations (mid-slot) onto the door jamb face.
4.
Drill and tap the two (2) slotted hole locations
for attaching screws. (No. 25 drill, 0.149 inch diameter for #10 thread forming screw. No. 21 drill, 0.159 inch
diameter for #10-32 machine screw).
5.
Mount the strike to the door jamb face using two (2) #10-32 pan head machine screws for the two slotted
holes.
6.
Install the remaining 3 flat head (machine or thread forming) screws after mounting the CDX-09 lock
assembly and the rim exit device.
