Overview
Mounting Location
- Top of Door — Mount here for best results, as this allows flexibility against direct attacks against the door. Mount close to the corner opposite the hinges. (see Fig. 1)
- Middle of Door, Opposite the Hinges — This works well in most situations. If mounting is required here, mount halfway up the door for greatest strength. Add extra springs to the armature assembly (see Fig. 4, pg. 5).
- Bottom of the Door – Not recommended as dirt build up could affect operation.
Installation Notes:
Install the magnet assembly into the door frame before installing the armature
assembly into the door. The magnet assembly requires space to run wires, as
well as space for the recessed portion of the unit. However, make sure that
the position selected for the magnet assembly leaves enough room in the door
to install the armature assembly.
Installation – Cut the Door Frame (See Fig. 2):
1. Find the Center Line:
a. Close the door and let it rest naturally.
b. Use a pencil to trace the position of the outside face of the door on the
door frame. If mounting on the top of the door, this line should be near the
top corner away from the door hinges. Leave enough room to mount the magnet
assembly in the door. If mounting on the side of the door, this line should be
drawn near the center of the door, but not near any physical locking
mechanisms.
c. Measure the width of the door, then draw a line on the door frame parallel
to the first line at that distance. These two lines will show where the door
rests relative to the door frame when it is closed.
d. Measure and trace a line between these two lines. This is the door frame
center line. IMPORTANT: Make sure the place you choose to mount the magnet
assembly is clear of obstructions and door adjustment bolts before making any
cuts. Allow enough room inside the door frame at both ends of the magnet
assembly to install the mounting tabs.
2. Tape the door frame template to the door frame, lining the template’s door
frame center line with the door center line you just drew.
For Hollow Metal Door Frames
1. Cut out the rectangular piece of metal as shown on the door frame
template.
2. Drill the four holes (two on each end) as shown on the door frame
template.
3. Using the included metal screws, mount the mounting tabs.
4. Run the wires.
For Wood Door Frames:
1. Rout or cut a 11/16″ (27mm) deep, 513/16″x13/16″ (147×30 mm) hole for the
cavity of the magnet assembly as shown in the door frame template.
2. Rout or cut a 3/16″ (5mm) deep, 5/8″x13/16″ (17×30 mm) hole at each end of
the cavity.
3. Run the wires.
Wiring Diagram
1. Set for power supply type (12VDC or 24VDC) – Use the jumpers to set
voltage setting (see Fig. 3).
2. Connect to power
3. One terminal positive, one to negative (non-polarized)
Installation – Cut the Door:
NOTE: When mounting vertically near the center of the door, disassemble
the armature assembly and add the two included springs. This improves the
unit’s push-off. (See Fig. 4).
1. Determine where to mount the armature assembly in the door. It should line
up with the magnet assembly. (See Fig. 4).
2. Draw a line between the front and back door faces. This is the door center
line (see Fig. 2).
3. Tape the door template to the door, lining the door template’s door center
line with the door center line you just drew.
For Hollow Metal Doors:
1. Cut out the rectangular piece of metal as shown on the door template.
2. Drill the four holes (two on each end) as shown on the door template.
3. Using the included metal screws, mount the mounting tabs.
For Wood Doors:
1. Rout or cut a 15/8″(42mm) deep, 513/16″ x 13/16″ (147x30mm) hole for the
cavity of the armature assembly as shown in the door template.
2. Rout a 3/16″ (5mm) deep, 5/8″ x 13/16″ (17x30mm) hole at each end of the
cavity.
Adjust armature screws to compensate for the gap between door and frame. (see
Fig. 4)
Fig. 4 Lining up Magnet Assembly and Armature Assembly
NOTE: When mounting vertically, disassemble the armature assembly and add extra springs for better push-off.
Installation – Mount the Magnet Assembly and Armature Assembly:
1. Double-check your work – Make sure the magnet assembly and armature
assembly line up properly. Make any adjustments. (see Fig. 5)
2. Using the screws provided, mount the magnet assembly onto the door frame,
and the armature assembly onto the door.
3. Use washers or flat pieces of metal to act as shims as necessary to mount
the magnet assembly and armature assembly flush with surface.
4. Close the door and note the gap between the armature assembly and the
magnet assembly. Using the included hex wrench, adjust the nickel-plated
portion of the armature assembly to make the gap as small as possible without
interfering with the opening and closing of the door.
5. Apply power and test the operation.

Installation for Surface Mounting (SD-993S-SB):
Surface-mount (magnet and armature)
Use 2 x surface-mount brackets
The magnet assembly is in the bracket above the door, and the armature assembly is in the bracket on the door.
Flush mount (magnet) Surface mount (door)
Use 1 x surface mount bracket
The magnet assembly is flush to the door frame or header, and the armature assembly is in the bracket on the door.
Installation for Glass Door Mounting (SD-993S-UB):
May require 1 or more SD-993S-SB and SD-993S-UB bracket kits, depending on
the glass door configuration.
NOTES: One glass door with a glass frame illustrated above.
