CX-EPD-1289L Electric Preload RIM Strike

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Page 2 of 7

Introduction 

RIM electric strikes, used with Pullman latch devices 

(i.e. exit devices) are very different from installing an electric 

strike for cylindrical or mortise locksets, and therefore require 

additional considerations and a different installation technique.

Camden CX-EPD-1289L is designed to provide up to 15 lbs of 

preload on the strike keepers. This unique feature eliminates 

typical installation challenges caused by warped or misaligned 

doors, frames or locking hardware.
