HES 10530603 4500C-12/24-606 Electric Strike
When you need a fail-secure electric strike that adapates to 12 or 24VDC systems without field rewiring, the HES 4500C series delivers the flexibility that matters on multi-door projects. This dual-voltage strike eliminates voltage-specific inventory hassles and reduces callbacks from voltage mismatches. The 606 satin brass finish integrates cleanly with architectural hardware in commercial, institutional, and hospitality applications where aesthetics complement security requirements.
Key Features
- Dual voltage operation: 12VDC or 24VDC field-selectable without additional components or wiring changes
- Fail-secure configuration keeps doors locked during power loss, maintaining perimeter security during outages
- 4500C series design accommodates standard cylindrical and mortise locksets for broad compatibility
- 606 satin brass finish matches architectural hardware finish schedules in commercial interiors
- Continuous duty rating supports high-cycle applications in office buildings, healthcare, and education facilities
- Designed for standard door frame prep, minimizing installation time and field modifications
- HES engineering ensures consistent performance across temperature ranges and voltage fluctuations
- Supports remote release from access control panels, card readers, and REX devices
The 4500C series solves a common integration problem: keeping strike inventory consolidated while serving projects with different voltage standards. Instead of stocking separate 12V and 24V units, you order one model and configure it on-site based on the actual panel output. This matters when you're managing large retrofit projects where existing systems dictate voltage, or when specifications change between bid and installation. The fail-secure operation ensures doors default to locked when power is interrupted, meeting code requirements for stairwell, equipment room, and perimeter door applications where security trumps egress during emergencies.
The satin brass finish addresses projects where security infrastructure must blend with warm metallic architectural finishes rather than standing out with chrome or aluminum. Pair this strike with HES faceplates and trim to complete the installation, and verify lockset compatibility with HES templates to avoid frame rework. Continuous duty rating means this strike handles employee entrances, suite doors, and interior security points where cycling frequency would overwhelm residential-grade hardware.
