STI KIT-318 Adapter Plate
Overview
The STI KIT-318 is a mechanical adapter plate for electronic strike installations in access control systems. Operating at 9VDC, the KIT-318 provides the mounting interface and alignment hardware required to integrate electronic strikes into standard door frame configurations. This component solves the alignment and compatibility challenge integrators face when mounting strikes across different frame geometries—the adapter ensures consistent mechanical fit without custom fabrication or field modifications.
Compatibility
The KIT-318 integrates with STI electronic strike assemblies and compatible access control strike families requiring standard 9VDC power delivery. Verify your specific strike model and door frame configuration against the STI documentation to confirm mounting pattern compatibility before ordering. The adapter is designed for use in commercial access control deployments where strike standardization across multiple doors simplifies maintenance and reduces field labor.
Installation Notes
Mounting requires a 7mm masonry drill bit for frame installation (referenced in STI installation guidance). Ensure 9VDC power supply capability is provisioned to the strike circuit before energizing the adapter. Verify frame geometry and strike model alignment before final fastening. Cable entry gaskets should be selected and installed based on your wiring topology to prevent water ingress in environments with exposed cabling.
