HES 1600-605-LM Electric Strike Body Only with Lock Monitor
When you're retrofitting access control into commercial frames or need a reliable strike body to pair with existing faceplates, the HES 1600-605-LM delivers a field-proven solution with integrated lock monitoring. This body-only configuration gives you the flexibility to match legacy installations or stock critical spares without replacing entire assemblies. The built-in lock monitor provides real-time feedback on door status, enabling your access control panel to track forced entry attempts and verify secure latching—essential for facilities with compliance or audit requirements.
Key Features
- Electric strike body only—pair with existing faceplates for retrofit efficiency
- Integrated lock monitor output for door position sensing and alarm verification
- Compatible with HES 1600 series faceplates across multiple jamb configurations
- Field-proven mechanism designed for high-cycle commercial environments
- Supports fail-secure and fail-safe wiring depending on power supply configuration
- Enables forced door alarm and door ajar monitoring when wired to compatible panels
- Simplifies inventory management by stocking bodies separately from trim plates
- Suitable for wood, hollow metal, and aluminum frame installations
The lock monitor functionality distinguishes this strike from basic models by closing the loop between mechanical hardware and your access control system. When integrated with panels that support monitoring inputs, you gain visibility into unauthorized entries, tailgating events, and doors left propped open—data that's critical for maintaining security postures in healthcare, education, and corporate facilities. The body-only format also streamlines service calls; technicians can swap the mechanism without disturbing the faceplate or disrupting frame prep work.
HES 1600 series strikes are engineered for durability in demanding commercial applications where cheap hardware fails prematurely. By offering the body separately, this configuration reduces costs on warranty replacements and keeps installations consistent across multi-building campuses. Whether you're maintaining a legacy system or standardizing on HES across new construction, the 1600-605-LM provides the monitoring capability and mechanical reliability integrators depend on for long-term deployments.
