HES 1006CAS-F Complete Pac For Deadbolt Recapture Fail Safe
When you need reliable deadbolt recapture in high-security openings but can't tolerate lockouts during power failures, standard electric strikes fall short. The HES 1006CAS-F delivers fail-safe operation with complete recapture functionality, ensuring occupants can always exit freely while maintaining positive locking when energized. This complete package includes the strike body, faceplate, and all necessary hardware for wood or metal frame installations where life safety codes mandate free egress.
Key Features
- Fail-safe operation releases automatically during power loss or fire alarm activation for code-compliant emergency egress
- Full deadbolt recapture accommodates standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch deadbolt projection for positive mechanical locking
- Complete all-in-one package includes strike body, faceplate, mounting hardware, and installation template
- Compatible with wood and metal door frames using standard 1-1/8 inch by 4-7/8 inch ANSI prep cutout
- Heavy-duty construction withstands repeated cycling in high-traffic commercial and institutional environments
- Field-reversible for left-hand or right-hand door configurations without separate handed units
- Accepts standard ANSI strike voltage for integration with access control panels and power supplies
- Low-profile faceplate maintains clean aesthetics on finished frames
The 1006CAS-F addresses the common deployment challenge in schools, healthcare facilities, and office buildings where life safety codes require immediate egress capability during emergencies. Unlike fail-secure strikes that remain locked during power failures, this fail-safe design releases the deadbolt automatically when de-energized, allowing occupants to exit while still providing positive locking during normal operation. The complete package eliminates the need to source separate components or verify compatibility between strike bodies and faceplates.
Installation follows standard ANSI strike preparation, making this a direct upgrade path from mechanical strikes or replacement for aging electric hardware. The field-reversible design reduces inventory requirements since the same unit works for left-hand and right-hand applications. Integrators specify the 1006CAS-F when projects demand both code-compliant fail-safe egress and the security of full deadbolt recapture in a single, tested assembly backed by HES manufacturing standards.
