Description
**Description:** The 7130 and 7131 electric strikes are engineered with 6-7/8″ faceplates, ideal for deadlatches or cylindrical locksets featuring 1/2″ to 5/8″ latchbolt projection. Optimized for installation in aluminum jambs and stiles, these strikes ensure compatibility with standard systems.
**Function:** Designed for remote electrical control, these strikes effectively operate narrow stile or hollow metal doors fitted with compatible deadlatches or cylindrical locksets with 1/2″ to 5/8″ latchbolt projections. The expansive faceplate is specifically crafted to cover the strike opening during transitions from pivoted-bolt deadlocks to deadlatches. Electric actuation unlocks the strike jaw, releasing the latchbolt to allow door entry without manual operation. The compact design allows for installation in aluminum jambs or shallow door sections as small as 1-5/8″. These strikes are a direct replacement for discontinued models including the 7030, 7530, and 7830 electric strikes.
**Specifications:**
– **Fail-Safe/Fail-Secure:** The mechanism is field convertible between modes, though the AC intermittent solenoid is not meant for continuous use.
– **Case:** Dimensions are approximately 1″ x 3-3/8″ x 1-5/8″ deep.
– **Strike Lip:** The 7130 model features a lip appropriate for a 1-3/4″ thick door that aligns flush with the jamb edge. For variations in door thickness or jamb shape, lip extension kits are available, as specified by the model number. Note that extensions are not available for the 7131 model.
– **Strike Opening:** Measuring 5/8″ x 1-7/16″ x 1/2″ deep, the bolt retainer jaw is crafted from stainless steel. The strike is compatible with bolts from various deadlatch models.
– **Faceplate:** With dimensions of 1-1/4″ x 6-7/8″, the 7130 features a flat faceplate while the 7131 has a radiused design to fit the nose on the inactive leaf of narrow stile glass doors. Available in diverse architectural finishes to suit aesthetic preferences.
– **Voltage:** Options include 12 or 24 volt AC and DC. DC models operate silently, whereas AC models emit a “buzz” during activation.
