Why won't the 5100 24v strike work on both a RH & LH door?

The 5100 strike details are listed below:

  • Only operates with 12VDC or 24VDC power supply.
  • Will not operate with AC transformer.
  • 12 or 24VAC can be converted to 12/24VDC using Von Duprin SO12 or SO24 rectifier.
  • Works on either handing of the door when 12VDC or 24VDC is applied into it.
  • If you apply 24VAC into the 5100 electric strike it may work in one handing and not the other when it is turned over.
