HES 1600-613E-LM Electric Strike Body Only 1600 with Lock Monitor
When you're replacing a failed strike mechanism or need a spare body for your existing HES 1600 frame, this electric strike body delivers the same field-proven performance that's made the 1600 series a standard in commercial access control. The integrated lock monitor provides real-time door position feedback to your access panel, enabling you to track forced entry attempts and verify secure latching without running separate switch wiring.
Key Features
- Electric strike body only — designed for replacement installations in existing HES 1600 frames
- Integrated lock monitor provides switched output for door position sensing and alarm verification
- Compatible with standard HES 1600 series faceplates and frames across installations
- Fail-secure operation maintains security during power interruptions
- Field-serviceable design enables body replacement without disturbing frame or door hardware
- Oil-darkened bronze finish (613E) matches existing commercial-grade hardware
- Supports both rim and mortise cylindrical locksets in the same body configuration
The lock monitor output integrates directly with most access control panels that support form-C dry contacts, eliminating the need to install separate door position switches or magnetic contacts. This simplifies troubleshooting when you're dealing with door-forced-open alarms or verifying that latches are fully engaging under load. The monitor tracks both bolt position and keeper engagement, giving you visibility into strike performance that basic electric strikes can't provide.
Because this is a body-only configuration, you'll keep your existing 1600-series faceplate and frame assembly in place — critical when you're working in occupied buildings where you can't afford the downtime of a complete strike replacement. The HES 1600 platform's modular design means you can swap bodies in minutes once power is disconnected, making this an efficient solution for repair calls or preventive maintenance on aging installations. If you're standardizing on the 1600 series across your projects, keeping body assemblies in your service van ensures you can resolve strike failures on first visit without waiting on parts.
