HES 10530614 4500C-12/24-605-LBSM Electric Strike
When you need a fail-secure electric strike that handles both 12V and 24V systems without field modifications, the HES 4500C series delivers the flexibility commercial access control projects demand. This dual-voltage strike eliminates the guesswork during installation and gives you options when integrating with control panels that may operate on either voltage standard. The 605 bright brass finish and field-selectable latchbolt monitoring make this strike a practical choice for projects where aesthetics matter and you need real-time door status feedback.
Key Features
- Dual-voltage operation (12V/24V DC) — no jumpers, no switches, automatic voltage detection
- Fail-secure operation keeps the door locked during power loss for maximum security
- 605 bright brass finish complements architectural hardware in high-visibility applications
- Field-selectable latchbolt monitoring provides real-time door position status to access panels
- Compatible with mortise, cylindrical, and exit device hardware
- Adjustable keeper accommodates vertical latchbolt misalignment during installation
- Continuous duty rating supports high-traffic openings without thermal cutoff concerns
- Standard ANSI strike cutout dimensions simplify retrofits and new construction
The 4500C series is built for integrators who work across multiple property types where voltage standards vary. With automatic voltage detection, you can stock one SKU and deploy it across mixed environments — office buildings running 12V panels and institutional facilities standardized on 24V systems. The built-in latchbolt monitoring eliminates the need for separate door position switches in many installations, reducing hardware costs and simplifying wiring runs back to the control panel.
The adjustable keeper is a time-saver during rough-in phases when door frames aren't perfectly aligned. You can accommodate up to 1/8" of vertical play without shimming or filing the strike pocket. The continuous duty rating means you won't encounter thermal lockouts in high-use scenarios like lobby doors, break rooms, or interior checkpoints with constant badging activity. For projects where finish coordination matters — executive suites, hospitality applications, or historic renovations — the bright brass option integrates visually with matching locksets and trim hardware.
