Description
This product is engineered for compatibility with deadlatches or cylindrical locksets featuring latchbolt projections of 1/2″ [12.7 mm] to 5/8″ [15.9 mm]. Ideal for installation in aluminum, hollow metal, or wood door applications, it electrically opens under a preload of up to 25 lbs [11.3 kg]. Preload refers to the pressure on doors from factors like HVAC systems, warping, or misaligned hardware, which can impact the performance of standard electric strikes.
**Function:**
This versatile, non-handed strike boasts an ultra-compact design with adjustable stainless steel keepers, delivering over 1,500 lbs [680.4 kg] of holding force in fail-secure mode. It is designed to release electrically with up to 25 lbs of door preload. The single solenoid mechanism operates on 12/16/24 VDC power, enabling remote electrical control of narrow style aluminum doors fitted with compatible deadlatches or cylindrical locksets. Electric actuation disengages the keeper, freeing the latchbolt, allowing the door to open without manual latch operation.
