2.5 Check the door frames/striker plates
Check if you can use ANSI or EURO standard striker plate or if you need to order a
customized striker plate. Check if the door frame is a wooden frame or a steel frame.
This will decide what kind of tools you will need for the installation.
Figure 7: Positioning of ANSI (DA) standard striker plate.
Note the dimension 30 mm (1.181") from the edge
of the lock case to the edge of the striker plate.
Figure 7 above shows the lock case center line (CL); see dot and dash line through the
figure above. The CL is important for the positioning of the lock case, striker plate and
escutcheon onto the doors.
Position of the ANSI standard striker plate:
The striker plate is positioned in the frame so that the bottom of the striker plate
is 30 mm (1.18'') above the bottom of the lock case; see Figure 7. Horizontally,
the B- or C-dimension (see
Figure 2
) will apply depending on the direction of
the door and the center/rebate orientation.
Note:
Be aware if there is any door gasket.
2.6 Beveled doors
If the door is beveled (edge is not at 90º to door), the dimensions should be based
on the shortest side. Standard beveling is 3.2 mm; 1/8".
