RCI 6514 Overview
The 6 series centerline strikes are available in standard profile or low-profile options to accommodate different latch projections. This heavy-duty series combines several requested key features. Standard features include a multi-voltage single solenoid, selectable lock mode (no tools necessary), horizontal adjustment, and plug-in wire connectors. ¼” horizontal adjustment makes installations faster and easier. Plus, with the RCI 6 series there will be less pressure on installer’s strike inventory, because these RCI door strikes do it all.

RCI S6514 32D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What doors and frames work with the RCI 6514 electric strike?
This strike fits hollow metal frames with 4-7/8" square corner faceplates. Works with 5/8" projection latches on standard commercial doors. Verify frame preparation matches manufacturer template before ordering.
2) Does this strike work for right and left hand doors?
Yes, the RCI 6514 is field reversible for both right and left hand door applications. Field adjustment allows single stock unit to work for either handing configuration.
3) What power requirements does this electric strike need?
Operates on 12-24 VAC or 12-24 VDC power. Check manufacturer specifications for exact current draw. Use properly rated power supply and ensure adequate wire gauge for voltage drop calculations.
4) What is the difference between fail-safe and fail-secure operation?
This unit offers both modes. Fail-safe unlocks when power is lost (fire safety compliance). Fail-secure stays locked during power loss (security priority). Check local fire codes for required mode in your application.
5) How do I determine the correct faceplate size for my frame?
Measure the strike pocket opening in your frame. This unit has a 4-7/8" square corner faceplate. Standard commercial hollow metal frames typically use this size. Confirm measurements against frame manufacturer specifications.
6) What latch projection does this strike accommodate?
Designed for 5/8" projection latches commonly found on commercial door hardware. Verify your lockset latch projection matches before installation. Standard commercial grade locks typically use 5/8" projection.
7) Can this strike work with access control systems?
Yes, integrates with card readers, keypads, and access control panels. Connect through door control unit or directly to access panel relay outputs. Ensure proper voltage matching and current capacity.
8) What tools are needed for installation?
Basic installation requires drill, bits, screwdrivers, and wire strippers. Frame modification may need metal cutting tools. Always use manufacturer template for precise positioning and mounting hole locations.
9) How do I maintain this electric strike?
Keep strike pocket clean of debris and paint buildup. Check wire connections periodically for corrosion. Test operation monthly under both powered and unpowered conditions. Lubricate pivot points per manufacturer schedule.
10) What are common substitutes for the RCI 6514?
Similar strikes from other commercial grade manufacturers may work with same faceplate and projection specifications. Always verify electrical requirements and mounting dimensions. Consider door hardware compatibility when substituting.
11) Does frame material affect strike performance?
Works best in properly reinforced hollow metal frames. Wood frames require adequate blocking behind strike location. Frame must support strike loads and door operation forces without flexing or damage.
