 Installation Directions
Diagram 2  12 V to 24 V Conversion
Prepare Strike
1. SELECT the appropriate Plug In Connector that
matches system power and electrically connect as
illustrated in Diagram 2.
FOR 12 V AC/DC OR 16 V AC, the pigtail marked
“12 VDC” should be used.
FOR 24 V AC/DC, the pigtail marked
“24 VDC” should be used.
2. VERIFY that the strike is in the correct mode of
operation. This unit ships in Fail Secure mode. If
you need to convert to Fail Safe see Diagram 4.
3. If using LATCHBOLT MONITOR (LBM)
see Diagram 3 to complete wiring.

Prepare Frame IF CONNECTOR IS MISSING

1. PREPARE frame using appropriate
template for your faceplate. CONNECT
TOGETHER
2. ATTACH faceplate to strike body. RED RED (+ 24 VDC)

Fail Safe Conversion

Convert Mode
1. LOOSEN the two #2-56 screws located on the back
of the strike as shown, but do not remove them.
Fire rating only applies to Fail Secure Units.
Diagram 4  Fail Safe Conversion
Conversion to Fail Safe negates fire rating on 5300.
Fail Safe Position

2. MOVE screws from the top of the hole

(Fail Secure position) to the bottom hole
(Fail Safe position) as shown above.
3. TIGHTEN screws.

Verify
4. VERIFY the strike is now in the Fail Safe operation
mode. If the strike still operates as Fail Secure, be
sure screws are fully seated in the bottom position.
