RCI 4308-09 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the RCI 4308 electric strike work with a 3/4 inch latch projection on a mortise lock?
That is exactly what the 4308 is built for. The latch cavity is sized for 3/4 inch projection latches and the cavity width is enlarged so it accepts cylindrical locks, narrowline aluminum locks, centerline mortise locks including the 3-piece anti-friction type, and mortise exit devices. If your latch projects less or more than 3/4 inch, you want a different cavity in the 4 Series.
2) What frame cut-out depth does the 4308 electric strike need?
Plan for a 1-1/2 inch cut-out depth, which clears most aluminum and wood frame profiles. The faceplate is 7-15/16 inches with round corners, so if the existing frame prep is square-cut you will need to dress the corners or use a round-corner prep. Door thickness range covered is 1-3/8 to 2-3/8 inches.
3) Is the RCI 4308 fail-safe or fail-secure, and what happens in a power outage?
The 4308 is configured fail-safe, meaning the strike releases and the door can be pushed open when power drops. That suits egress-driven openings but it is the wrong choice where you need the door to stay secure without power, for example an exterior perimeter door on a building with no backup power. For that, specify a fail-locked (fail-secure) model instead.
4) Can I install this RCI strike on a fire-rated door opening?
No. The 4308 carries no fire rating, and a fail-safe strike releases the latch on power loss, which is incompatible with a fire door assembly that must stay positively latched. For a labeled opening you need a fire-rated, fail-secure electric strike.
5) Does the RCI 4308 meet Grade 1 and UL requirements for a commercial access control spec?
It does. The 4308 is UL 294 Listed, UL 1034 Burglary-Resistant Listed, and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.31 Grade 1. That covers the access control system listing, the burglary-resistance listing, and the highest durability grade for electric strikes, which is typically what an institutional or government spec calls for.
6) What voltage options does the RCI 4308 electric strike come in?
Two: 12 VDC and 24 VDC. Match it to the access control power supply you already have on the door, since a fail-safe strike draws continuously while locked and the supply has to carry that load along with anything else on the circuit.
7) Do I have to worry about polarity when wiring the RCI 4308?
No. The coil is non-polarity-conscious, so crossed leads will not damage or disable it. On fail-locked versions of the 4 Series, AC or DC input is acceptable. Route wiring per the RCI installation instructions and test latch engagement with the access control system before closing the frame up.
8) We had a strike that could be popped by rapping on the frame. Does this RCI model address that?
Yes. The 4 Series 4308 uses an anti-vibration design specifically to prevent the keeper being manipulated open by vibration, which is the failure mode behind knock-and-pop entries. It is also UL 1034 Burglary-Resistant Listed.
9) Is the RCI 4308 suitable for residential doors?
It is classed commercial only. The 4308 is sized and rated for commercial openings, offices, schools, healthcare, retail and municipal buildings, and it assumes an access control power supply and a frame that can take a 1-1/2 inch deep cut-out. A typical residential wood jamb and doorbell transformer setup is not the application.
