* Failure to follow proper installation of an E-Plex 7900 may void the locks warranty *
For cylindrical locks, ensure that the deadlatch (deadlocking pin/deadlocking plunger) will stop against the strike plate when the door is closed (see images below).
Use only the strike plate, strike box, or strike kit supplied with the lock
The deadlatch on the E-Plex 7900 lock serves multiple purposes and incorrect installation may cause issues with the lock’s performance
Incorrect installation may void a lock’s warranty & disqualify any RMA services
Proper installation applies to mortise locks as well
Please contact Support with any questions pertaining to proper installation
