Upgrade an existing commercial aluminum entrance to electronic access control with the Adams Rite 7430 UltraLine Electric Strike, featuring an oversized 1-1/4" x 6-7/8" flat faceplate.

The 7430 is designed for aluminum jamb applications and is particularly useful when converting an opening from an Adams Rite MS® pivoted-bolt deadlock to a compatible deadlatch. The extended 6-7/8" faceplate helps cover the existing strike preparation, providing a clean and professional retrofit.

Part of the premium UltraLine 7400 Series, the 7430 can electrically release under up to 25 lb of door preload, helping prevent binding caused by HVAC pressure, weatherstripping, door warping, or minor alignment issues.

MS® Deadlock Conversion Application

One of the primary applications for the 7430 is converting an existing opening originally prepared for an Adams Rite MS® pivoted-bolt deadlock.

The larger 6-7/8" faceplate is designed to cover the existing strike cutout while allowing the opening to be upgraded to a compatible deadlatch and electric strike.

This makes the 7430 an excellent choice for:

• Existing aluminum storefront doors

• Access-control upgrades

• MS® deadlock conversions

• Retrofit installations

• Existing oversized strike preparations

Compatible Locking Hardware

The 7430 accepts compatible:

• Adams Rite 4500 Series Deadlatches

• Adams Rite 4900 Series Deadlatches

• Adams Rite 4700 Series Deadlatches – discontinued

• Compatible cylindrical locksets

• Latchbolts with 1/2" to 5/8" projection

Preload-Capable UltraLine Design

Door pressure can prevent conventional electric strikes from releasing properly.

Common causes include:

• HVAC pressure

• Building pressure

• Weather seals

• Door warping

• Closer pressure

• Minor door or frame misalignment

The UltraLine 7430 is engineered to release electrically while experiencing up to 25 lb of preload, providing dependable access-control performance in demanding commercial environments.
