NOTE: Release bracket
required for automatic
models only.
Position strike plate on lock side of door, centering under roller bearing. Attach to door frame with
two self drilling screws and star lock washers. Position release bracket on hinge side of door frame
for fin to fit into slot of tailpiece. Attach the release bracket using two (2) self drilling/tapping screws
and star lock washers. Ensure that extension rod contacts the release bracket and relocks unit
when door is completely closed. Secure the release bracket with the third self-tapping screw and
star lock washer into the center hole.
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS: Close door and release lock so the AAD lock spans the width of the door
frame. On strike side, the roller bearing should clear the door frame stop by no more than 1/8” as it
opens. The door is now secure with less than 1/8” clearance between roller bearing and strike plate.
If adjustments needed, loosen nuts on door brackets, adjust and retighten.
