HES 1600-605-DLM Electric Strike Body Only with Dual Lock Monitors
When you're integrating access control into existing door hardware or replacing failed strike components, you need flexibility without tearing out the entire assembly. The HES 1600-605-DLM strike body provides the critical replacement component while adding dual monitoring capability for positive door position and bolt status verification. This body-only configuration lets you maintain your existing faceplates and trim while upgrading monitoring functionality for more reliable access reporting.
Key Features
- Strike body only design for component-level replacement without full hardware swap
- Dual lock monitor outputs provide separate signals for bolt position and door status
- Compatible with HES 1600 series faceplates and existing strike installations
- Fail-secure operation maintains locked position during power loss
- Heavy-duty construction withstands high-cycle commercial environments
- Supports both mortise and cylindrical locksets for installation versatility
- Enables real-time monitoring integration with access control panels
- Proven HES 1600 platform reliability for retrofit and expansion projects
The dual monitoring capability addresses a common integration challenge: distinguishing between authorized release events and forced entry attempts. One monitor tracks the electric strike's bolt position while the second monitors door status, allowing your access control system to differentiate between someone propping the door open after valid entry versus tailgating or forced access. This granular feedback improves alarm accuracy and reduces false positives that plague single-monitor configurations.
Body-only strikes shine in retrofit scenarios where existing faceplates are architecturally specified or where you're standardizing monitoring across multiple doors without replacing functional hardware. The 1600-605-DLM integrates into HES's modular strike ecosystem, giving you upgrade paths as access control requirements evolve. Whether you're adding monitoring to legacy installations or replacing worn strike bodies in high-traffic locations, this component delivers the monitoring intelligence modern access systems demand without the cost and disruption of complete hardware replacement.
