INSTALLATION
12C COMPACT ELECTRIC STRIKE
The 12C Compact Electric Strike is one of the smallest and most versatile strikes available, suitable for all types of door frames. It is designed as a direct replacement for standard mechanical strike plates.
Installation requires minimal effort, and its compact size helps maintain the structural integrity and strength of the door frame.
The 12C can be mounted on either the right or left-hand side of a door frame and operates exclusively in Fail-Secure mode. It is specifically designed for retrofitting "T" Strike applications.
WIRING AND CURRENT DRAW
The control circuit for the door strike is not polarity sensitive. It draws approximately 90mA at 12VDC and features a continuously rated solenoid.
NOTE: This product must not be installed in applications exposed to wind and weather, such as external gates.

FRAME INSTALLATION
METAL FRAME
A line drawing illustrates the 12C Compact Electric Strike installed within a metal door frame. The strike plate is shown mounted flush with the frame, with mounting screws visible. The internal mechanism of the strike is depicted within the frame opening.
WOOD FRAME
A line drawing shows the 12C Compact Electric Strike installed within a wood door frame. Similar to the metal frame depiction, the strike plate is shown mounted to the wood frame, with screws visible. The strike mechanism is shown integrated into the frame.
DOOR LATCH POSITION
A cross-sectional view illustrates the correct positioning of the door latch relative to the strike keeper. It shows the door, the door latch, the door frame, and the strike keeper. A critical detail highlighted is the 1mm gap between the door latch and the front face of the strike keeper when the door is closed. This gap is explained as essential for preventing back pressure and ensuring proper strike function.
As depicted, there should be a 1mm gap between the door latch and the front face of the strike keeper. This gap prevents the door from creating back pressure on the strike keeper when the door is closed. This clearance is crucial for ensuring the proper functioning of the electric strike.
