Instructions
1. Mark center line (CL) of existing device latch from active door to inactive door. Align center of Double Door Housing (DDH) with horizontal centerline marked on inactive door and square it with edge of the inactive door. Maintain 3/16" minimum gap between the exit device & strike face for proper functioning of exit device. See IS0161 for details.
2. Mark the mounting holes for the Double Door Housing (DDH) on the inactive door using DDH as template.
3. Drill two 13/32" (10.5mm) holes through inactive door. 4. Drill wire access hole into desired area of DDH. Pull two (2) wires through the access hole and connect to strike (polarity is not critical).
5. Temporarily mount RCI 0161 strike to DDH through the slotted holes (Hole C) using 1/4-20 UNC x 1" screws provided.
6. Mount DDH to inactive door using the two (2) 1/4-20 x 3” screws and 1/4-20 Sex Nuts supplied.
7. Adjust electric strike insert horizontally, if necessary, until Pullman Latch engages when door is closed. (See Fig. 3 on 0161 installation instructions if further horizontal insert adjustment is necessary).
8. Mark, drill and tap Hole D for 1/4-20 x 1” provided to secure the final location.
IMPORTANT: The security ratings shown on the RCI 0161 strike labels no longer apply with the use of the double door housing.
