Compatible with hollow metal, wood, and aluminum doors in commercial frames. The right-angle bolt configuration works best in applications where frame depth is limited. Verify door weight capacity and frame reinforcement requirements.
3) How do I determine left-hand versus right-hand installation?
Stand on the secure side facing the door. If hinges are on your right, it's right-hand. If hinges are on your left, it's left-hand. This model is configured for right-angle mounting specifically.
4) What finishes are available for the FS23M series?
Standard finishes typically include satin chrome, dark bronze, and black. Finish availability may vary by model. Check specific model specifications for exact finish options and order accordingly.

Installation requires precise mortising into door and frame. Use manufacturer's template for exact measurements. Ensure adequate wire gauge for power runs and proper grounding. Professional installation recommended for proper alignment and code compliance.
9) How do I adjust the bolt throw and timing?
Most adjustments are made through internal mechanisms accessed after removing the lock from the door. Follow manufacturer procedures for bolt throw adjustment and timing calibration. Avoid field modifications that could affect UL listing.
10) What other SDC electric bolt locks should I consider?
Consider the standard FS series for different mounting configurations or the SecureLock series for higher security applications. Browse our SDC collection for alternative models based on your specific door and frame requirements.
