Drill wire channel through door
Caution 1:
Check with your local fire marshal
before drilling a fire-rated door. Drilling through
a fire-rated door may void the fire label.
Caution 2:
Be careful to drill straight through the
door, making sure the drill does not break
through the face of the door.
1 Remove the hinge nearest the mortise cavity.
2 Using a 3 to 4 foot drill bit, drill a 3/8
″
diameter
channel through the upper back of the mortise cavity
to the center of the nearest hinge mortise.
See Figure 3.
Note:
It may be easier to drill halfway from each side of
the door.

1 Locate the centerpoint for the door status switch 2.5
″
above the top of the faceplate mortise on the edge of
the door (as shown in Figure 4).
2 Drill a 1
″
diameter hole 1 3/4
″
deep for the door
status switch.
3 Position the drill so the tip of the bit is approximately
1
″
into the hole and the bit is close to the top edge of
the hole. Then drill a 3/8
″
channel at approximately a
35° angle from the door status switch hole into the
mortise cavity (as shown in Figure 4).
