Install strike box and strike plate
1 Insert the strike box into the mortise in the door
jamb. Place the strike plate over the strike box and
secure the strike with the screws provided.
2 Check the position of the auxiliary bolt against the
strike plate.
Caution:
The auxiliary bolt must make contact
with the strike plate. The auxiliary bolt dead-
locks the latchbolt and prevents someone from
forcing the latch open when the door is closed.
If the incorrect strike is installed, a lock-in can
occur.
Note:
The recommended gap between the door and
jamb is 1/8
