Dormakaba Rci AL65 Low Profile Electric Strike

Product Description

The DORMAKABA USA INC. / RCI AL65 is a low profile electric strike designed for access control applications in commercial and light commercial door hardware installations. The AL65 is sold without a face plate, making it suitable for installations where a custom or separately sourced face is required. Electric strikes of this type allow a door to be held in a locked position by default or fail-safe, releasing the latch when an access control signal is received. This unit is intended for installation by licensed locksmiths, access control technicians, or qualified security integrators.

The AL65 is used in commercial door frames where a low profile strike body is required due to frame depth or space constraints. Its faceless design is well suited for scenarios where the installer is matching an existing face hardware finish or integrating into a custom frame cutout. Typical applications include office entry doors, commercial vestibules, and controlled access points in light commercial buildings. Installation is performed as a single unit sold individually.

Key Features

• Low profile strike body fits shallow or space-constrained door frame applications
• Sold without face plate for custom or field-matched face installations
• Designed for integration with access control systems
• Single unit packaging for straightforward replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation electric strike for commercial door frames requiring a low profile electric strike body without a face plate.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified access control technician familiar with electric strike hardware. Disconnect and de-energize all access control wiring before beginning installation or service work. Verify that the strike body dimensions match the door frame cutout before final mounting. Consult local building and fire codes, including applicable provisions of NFPA 80 and local access control ordinances, to confirm proper use of electric strikes on rated or egress doors.
