HES 10530612 4500C-12/24-629-LBM Electric Strike
When you need reliable fail-secure access control for commercial metal frames, the HES 4500C series delivers field-proven performance in high-traffic installations. This dual-voltage strike accommodates 12 or 24 VDC systems, eliminating inventory complexity when you're managing multiple sites with different power configurations. The satin stainless (629) finish provides corrosion resistance for exterior applications or high-humidity environments where durability matters.
Key Features
- Dual voltage operation (12/24 VDC) simplifies inventory and field deployment across mixed access control systems
- Fail-secure configuration maintains door security during power loss, critical for perimeter and restricted area applications
- Latch bolt monitoring (LBM) provides real-time door position feedback for accurate event logging and alarm integration
- Satin stainless steel (629) construction withstands weather exposure and frequent use without finish degradation
- 4500C series compatibility with cylindrical locksets from major manufacturers reduces installation complications
- Standard cutout dimensions fit most commercial hollow metal frames without custom fabrication
- Field-selectable keeper options accommodate various door hardware configurations and prep variations
The 4500C series represents HES's workhorse solution for integrators who need predictable performance without field callbacks. The dual-voltage design means you can standardize on one model while supporting both 12V and 24V access panels—reducing truck stock requirements and eliminating wrong-voltage installation errors. Latch bolt monitoring provides the position sensing necessary for proper access control integration, enabling you to distinguish between forced entry, door ajar conditions, and authorized access events.
This strike installs in standard ANSI A115.2 cutouts common to commercial hollow metal frames, making it straightforward to retrofit existing openings or integrate into new construction. The fail-secure operation ensures doors remain locked during power interruptions or panel failures, meeting code requirements for perimeter security, IT rooms, pharmacies, and other spaces where default-locked behavior is mandated. The satin stainless finish handles coastal environments, parking structures, and other applications where moisture and UV exposure would degrade painted or plated alternatives.
