RCI S6514 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to specify handing for the RCI 6514 strike?
No handing to specify. The 6514 is non-handed, so the same unit goes into a left or right hand opening. That is one less thing to get wrong on a multi-door order, and it means one spare on the shelf covers every door in the building.
2) Is the RCI 6514 fail-safe or fail-secure?
Either one. Fail-safe and fail-secure are field selectable on the 6514, set at the strike without swapping parts, so an egress door that has to release on a power drop and a storeroom door that has to stay locked can both be covered by the same part number. Decide per opening at install time based on your local egress requirements.
3) What voltage and current does the RCI 6514 electric strike draw?
Field-selectable 12 or 24 volts, and it takes AC or DC, so it runs off 12/24VDC or 12-24VAC. Draw is 375mA at 12VDC. Size the power supply against that figure times the number of strikes on the circuit, and remember the current falls when you run it at 24V. Because voltage is selected in the field, the same strike drops onto a 12V panel or a 24V panel.
4) Is the RCI 6514 strike strong enough for a main entrance or a high traffic commercial door?
It is rated 1,500 lbf static with 70 ft-lb dynamic and 500,000 cycles, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.31 Grade 1. It is also UL 294 Listed for access control and UL 1034 Listed as burglary-resistant. That combination is what a spec on a commercial entry, a healthcare corridor, or a school door normally calls for.
5) Can I put the RCI 6514 electric strike on a fire rated door?
No. The 6514 is not fire rated, so keep it on non-rated openings. A fire door assembly needs a strike listed for fire door use, paired with a positive-latching lock, or the label on the assembly is void. For rated openings, specify a fire-rated electric strike model instead of this one.
6) Will the RCI 6514 cover the old cutout when I replace an existing strike in a metal frame?
Usually, yes. The 4-7/8 inch square corner faceplate is the common ANSI strike prep size, and a trim plate is included to hide an irregular or oversized frame cut-out left by the previous hardware. You also get 1/4 inch (6.4mm) of horizontal adjustment to line the keeper up with the latch after the frame is already drilled, which is what saves the job when the old prep is off by a hair.
7) What do I have to specify when ordering an RCI 6514 strike?
Two choices. First the profile, Standard for a 3/4 inch latch projection or Low Profile for 1/2 inch or 5/8 inch. Second, whether you want the latch and keeper monitor (LM/KM) built in or no monitor switch at all. Voltage, fail-safe versus fail-secure, and handing are not order decisions, they are set in the field or not applicable.
8) How do I get door position and latch status back to the access control panel with the RCI 6514?
Order it with the LM/KM option. That adds a latch monitor and keeper monitor, giving the panel a contact that reports whether the latch is actually in the keeper and whether the keeper has been released. If you only need to unlock the door and are getting status from a separate door contact, the no-monitor version is the one to buy. This has to be chosen up front, it is not a field add.
9) What is the difference between an electric strike like the RCI 6514 and an electromagnetic lock for a commercial door?
The 6514 replaces the strike in the frame and works with the mechanical lock you already have, cylindrical or mortise, so the door still latches and the lever or key side keeps working when the system is down. A maglock replaces the latching entirely and holds the door shut by magnet alone, which means it always releases on power loss. Pick the strike when you want the door to stay positively latched and you want to keep the existing lockset. It is a commercial-duty unit, not a residential one.
10) Can I standardize on the RCI 6514 across a whole building of different doors?
To a large extent. One part number covers left and right hand doors because it is non-handed, covers 12V and 24V panels because voltage is field-selectable, and covers both fail-safe and fail-secure openings because the mode is set in the field. What still varies door to door is the latch projection, Standard profile for 3/4 inch and Low Profile for 1/2 or 5/8 inch, and whether that opening needs the LM/KM monitor. Fire rated openings fall outside it entirely, since the 6514 is not fire rated.
11) Does the RCI 6514 need special wiring or a junction box at the frame?
Wiring is plug-in. The 6514 uses plug-in wire connectors, so the strike lands on a connector rather than needing terminations made up inside the frame pocket, which cuts the time an electrician spends on the ladder. Route power per the wiring diagram, set the voltage and the fail-safe or fail-secure mode before you close it up, then test latch engagement with the panel live.
