2. Select the appropriate Plug In Connector that matches 

system power and electrically connect as illustrated in 

Diagram 2.  For 12V AC/DC or 16V AC, the pigtail marked “12 

VDC” should be used.  For 24V AC/DC,  the pigtail marked 

“24 VDC” should be used.  If no connector is present, 

configure the wires as illustrated within Diagram 2.

3. Make sure that the electric strike is in correct mode of 

operation. This electric strike ships in fail secure mode. If 

you need to convert the unit to fail safe, see Diagram 3 on 

page 3.

4. If using Latchbolt Monitor (LBM), see Diagram 4.

5. Attach the faceplate to the electric strike, using the #8-32 

screws provided. Be sure that the ramps are on top of the 

faceplate. (see Diagram 5 on page 3).

Installation Directions

1. Verify opening is plumb and square. For important detail, 

see “Read Me” guide.

6. Prepare door jamb per the appropriate template detail 

(see pages 4-6). 

Prepare Strike

Evaluate Opening

7. If applicable, install mounting tabs using #10-32 screws. 

Do not tighten.

 

8. If opening is not plumb and square, see “Read Me” guide 

for recommended corrections. 

9. Install the electric strike unit in jamb cutout, using 

#12-24 screws provided (or wood screws where 

necessary).

10. The deadlatch must not interfere with the 8000/8300 

ramps (see Diagram 6 on page 3). If you need to adjust the 

ramps, mark the centerline of the deadlatch onto the 

8000/8300 faceplate. Remove the 8000/8300 electric strike 

from jamb. Loosen screws and slide internal ramp until the 

groove between the ramps aligns with the mark made on 

the faceplate. Tighten the screws. (see Diagram 7 on page 

3). 

11. Connect wires from power source to the electric strike. 

12. Reinstall electric strike, tighten the #12-24 screws and 

verify clearance of deadlatch.

13. If applicable, tighten the #10-32 screws holding the 

mounting tabs.

CAUTION! Before connecting any device at the installation site, verify input voltage using a multimeter.

Many  power supplies and low voltage transformers operate at higher levels than listed. Any input voltage exceeding

10% of the solenoid rating may cause severe damage to the unit and will void the warranty.
