RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION SEQUENCE:
1. Verify strike is proper for the door into which it is to be
installed.
2. Verify that you have all parts required to complete the
installation.
3. Verify that the new electric release operates with the
existing power supply/control circuit (retrofit
applications); or verify that the new power supply/
control circuit operates the new electric release (new
installations).
4. Locate and clearly mark the circuit breaker which
provides ac power to your transformer/ power supply
or that supplies power to the receptacle into which you
will plug your transformer/power supply. This will
enable you to safely cut power during installation, and
permit troubleshooting if required.
5. Verify that the receptacle or circuit providing power to
the electric release is not controlled by a wall switch,
time clock, or other external device.
6. Verify that the circuit/receptacle used for the locking
system is not powering any other equipment.
Remember that interruption of power to your locking
system could prevent access into the protected area,
or jeopardize the security/safety of the site's
occupants.
7. Verify that the door and associated components are in
good working order.
8. Install electric release as per attached guidelines.
9. Wire electric release as per attached guidelines.
10. Perform final test of completed installation.
Be sure that you have ordered the correct TRINE strike for
your application.
LUBRICATION: The TRINE Model #3258 & Model #3458
do not require lubrication. Lubricating these units will
actually hamper their performance by attracting dust and
debris into the tight tolerance precision Micro Solenoid
assembly
GETTING STARTED: Before proceeding with your
installation, verify that the door to which the electric release
is being applied is in good working condition.
These items are essential for either new installations or
retrofits Items which should be specifically checked prior to
beginning the installation include:
The hinges (or pivots) are in good condition
If your installation is a retrofit, that the existing latch
lines up perfectly with the existing strike plate.
The door is not rubbing on the saddle or anywhere on
the frame
The door closer is not leaking and is in good
condition and properly adjusted.
The door is not warped or otherwise damaged which
might hamper its operation or otherwise affect your
installation or the final system's performance.
That the door frame member into which the door
release is to be installed is deep enough (1 inch) for
the body of the electric strike, and that the wiring to
operate the electric release can be installed for your
application.
FOR RETROFITS:
With only a minimal modification to the frame the Model
#3258 is the ideal replacement for the ADAMS-RITE® #4502
Strike; (Use with Adams-Rite Model 4510, 4710 or 4750 dead
latches)
With only a minimal modification to the frame the Model
#3458 is the ideal replacement for the ADAMS-RITE®
#4730/4501 Strike plate.
For both the TRINE #3258 & #3458 retrofits, these strikes are
designed so that the original mounting tab holes may be
used to secure the electric release into the frame.
DUTY & VOLTAGES: The TRINE Model #3258 & Model
#3458 are available as FAIL-SECURE (Normally Locked,
Power to Unlock), INTERMITTENT DUTY and are supplied
in two different operating voltages and the LC Version,
suitable for use in a range of voltages from 12V AC/DC to
24V AC/DC. The TRINE Model #3258RS & Model #3458RS

ELECTRICAL: If you are performing a new installation, be
certain that you make provisions for the proper voltage
power supply for your electric strike. If you are performing
a retrofit type installation, determine that the voltage
present at the location of the strike is appropriate for the
TRINE strike you have, that the circuitry supplying the
voltage is operating properly, and also verify that you are
able to cut the power completely to the door location so
that you may perform the installation safely without
endangering yourself or causing damage to the power
supply or other devices connected to the circuit. It is
strongly recommended that you also test for high voltages
which may exist between each lead of the power wiring to
the electric release solenoid, and to the door frame which
is an earth ground.
Dangerous voltages or currents may occur due to a
miswire or other pre-existing fault conditions in the system
you are servicing.
TESTING YOUR ELECTRIC STRIKE; POWER SUPPLY; &
SWITCHING CIRCUIT PRIOR TO FINAL MOUNTING OF THE
ELECTRIC RELEASE IS RECOMMENDED
POWER SOURCES:
The TRINE MODEL #5208 (12 VDC) or MODEL # 5209 (24
VDC) are suitable DC POWER SUPPLIES which are plug-in
and therefore do not require that the installer perform line
voltage wiring.
TRINE offers several low voltage transformers suitable for
use with the TRINE MODEL #3258 & #3458 electric releases.
For 12 Volt door releases; use the TRINE #5204 PLUG-IN AC
LOW VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER and MODEL SR-1 SILICON
RECTIFIER
For 24 Volt door releases; use the TRINE #5201 PLUG-IN AC
LOW VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER and TRINE #SR-1 SILICON
RECTIFIER
HARDWIRED POWER SUPPLY MODELS are also available see our website or call our Customer Support Line for
details.
SILENT OPERATION: The TRINE #3258 & #3458 are referred
to as "Silent Operating"; unlike some types of AC electric
releases which make a "buzzing sound" when activated.
For some applications, such as entrances into apartment
buildings or storerooms, an audible sound is desirable, and
even expected. For other applications, such as offices,
silent operation is preferred because a buzzing sound is
distracting or disturbing. Verify with your client which they
require, and if an audible signal when the electric release is
activated is desirable, then add a audible/visual
annunciating device as shown in the accompanying wiring
diagrams, Figures 1, 2 and 3 (see page 4).
CONFIRMING PROPER LOCK-LATCH ENGAGEMENT &
CLEARANCES:
The latch and the lock must engage properly for the
electric strike to operate as intended. On doors where the
gap between the edge of the door and the jamb are within
standard tolerances and the latch is the proper length, no
adjustments will be required and this is true for the
majority of installations.
But too little lock-latch engagement will result in an
installation were the door may be easily spread; allowing
the locked door to be forced open.
Too much lock-latch engagement will result in a situation
where the door release will interfere with the door latch,
causing binding; improper operation and premature
mechanical wear on the latch and release.
Extended latch length (LL) minus the gap (G) between the
edge of the door and the edge of the jamb equals the
amount of lock-latch engagement.
"Lock-Latch Engagement = LL - G"
INSTALLATION OF SHIM:
An adequate amount of clearance must exist between the
door latch and the strike keeper so that they do not
interfere or bind when the door opens or closes. Two
1/16" thick shim are supplied with the TRINE #3258 &
#3458 which may be installed as shown in Diagram 8a
and 10a to resolve this situation if this problem is
encountered. (See Figure 4 below)

TROUBLESHOOTING THE COMPLETED INSTALLATION:
SYMPTOM: Electric release is not actuating:
1. Verify proper voltage is present AT STRIKE. If voltage IS present: the strike may have been damaged during the
installation, or dirt or debris may be preventing proper operation.
2. Verify for proper electric release coil resistance (REFER TO COIL ESISTANCE CHART), for either a short circuit or
open circuit. Coil is NOT a serviceable part. Note that intermittent coils can only receive power for 1 minute
or less.
3. If voltage IS NOT present:
Verify Circuit breaker is on
Verify voltage at the transformer/power supply output.
Verify output from rectifier (if used)
Verify that there are no additional, unknown external switches or devices which may be interrupting your circuit.
Check for damaged wiring or bad wire splices.
SYMPTOM: Door will not open but strike is working
Check for other locks on door
Check for proper lock-latch engagement (SEE SECTION: "CONFIRMING PROPER LOCK-LATCH ENGAGEMENT &
CLEARANCES").
Lock latch engagement may be not set correctly. (If proper clearance cannot be achieved by installing a shim; a
shorter lock latch may be required for your installation.)
Check for excessive backpressure on door release latch by following these steps:
While observing the electric release and latch; apply enough pressure on the door so that the lock's latch does not
press on the electric release's latch. If applying pressure as described does not cause nay movement of the lock
away form the latch, then there may be too much pressure on the electric release's latch. If electric release works
properly while you are applying this pressure, then steps must taken to relieve this pressure. Possible remedies
include:
Re-adjust (or install) a door closer
Remove door silencers
Correct excessive door warpage
Re-center electric release in jamb
Remove or trim weather stripping around the door
