INSTALLATION MANUAL
WIRE RACEWAY REQUIRED:
It is best to have the wire race way prepared at the door and
frame manufacturer. If this has not been done there are two
suggested preparation methods for making wire paths for the
FSE and FSA models in the field. Select method A or B;
depending on the door and frame circumstances, one may be
better than the other.
Consult door manufacturer with any ques-
tions regarding agency listings with respect to fire integrity.
METHOD A:
1. Prep door and frame according to standard template.
2. Determine location of standard 1 inch wire harness through
hole and mark centerline of hole on hinge side of door.
3. Using appropriate drilling jig and drill bits, drill 3/8” or 1/2”
wire race from edge of hinge side into standard wire harness
through hole.
4. Install electric hinge or door cord and run wires.
METHOD B:
1. Prep door and frame according to standard template.
2. Using a 1” drill bit, continue the 1” latch hole through retractor
hole to a depth of 5”. This will allow room for the wiring to pass
around the retractor.
3. Using appropriate drilling jig and drill bits, drill 3/8” or 1/2”
wire race from the latch hole through the door toward the hinge
side. It is not necessary to continue drilling the hole through the
hinge side.
4. Measure up 3 inches from the center of the 2 1/8” retractor
hole and drill a 1 inch through hole on center as shown below.
5. Using a 3/8 inch drill bit, place the tip of the drill into the 1”
wire hole drilled in step 3 and aim at the angles shown. Drill
down and toward the hinge side to intersect the 1” latch hole
(where it was continued in step 2.
4. Install electric hinge or door cord and
run wires.
Note: this method offers the advantage of
not having holes exiting the door edges.
If a door cord is used the door cord wire
hole can be cross drilled into the long
wire race.

METHOD B:
METHOD A:
FSE & FSA HARD WIRED MODELS
REQUIRE WIRING TO BE RUN TO
THE LOCK PREP FROM THE HINGE
SIDE. BELOW IS A SUGGESTED
METHOD TO DO THIS. A DOOR CORD
OR ELECTRIC HINGE OR POWER
TRANSFER DEVICE IS USED TO
ROUTE WIRING FROM FRAME TO
DOOR. NOTE THAT WHEN USING AN
ELECTRIC HINGE IT IS RECOM-
MENDED THAT THE POWER WIRES
BE DOUBLED OR TRIPLED UP (ON
BOTH THE POSITIVE AND GROUND
LEGS) TO AVOID SIGNIFICANT VOLT-
AGE DROP THROUGH THE THIN
WIRES IN THE HINGE.
