An electric locking device for selectively locking and unlocking a door to a door frame is provided. The device comprises a housing and a keeper movably connected to the housing. The keeper includes a keeper shaft having an axis of rotation. The keeper is rotatable about the axis of rotation between first and second rotational positions, and movable between first and second directional positions relative to the lock housing. The movement between first and second directional positions is generally linear, and the axis of rotation is configured to move relative to the lock housing as the keeper moves between first and second directional positions. When the keeper is in the first rotational and directional positions, the door is secured to the door frame by the keeper. When the keeper is in the second rotational and directional positions, the door is allowed to move away from the door frame.
