Adams Rite 7140-510-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Adams Rite 7140 electric strike work with my Adams Rite deadlatch on an aluminum storefront door?
That's exactly what the 7140 is built for. It's a compact strike sized for aluminum jamb sections, and it takes Adams Rite deadlatches or cylindrical latches with a 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch latch projection. If your deadlatch throws more than 5/8 inch, this is the wrong strike. The faceplate is flat with square corners, 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inches.
2) Can I put an Adams Rite 7140 into the jamb prep left by an older discontinued narrow aluminum strike?
Yes. The 7140 fits existing prep for discontinued narrow aluminum products, so a retrofit into an older storefront jamb usually goes in without recutting, as long as the existing cutout matches the 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch flat square-corner faceplate.
3) Do I have to order the Adams Rite 7140 as fail-safe or fail-secure, or can I change it in the field?
Both. Fail-safe and fail-secure are field selectable on the 7140, so an installer can flip the mode at the opening. That said, the ordering matrix still separates them: you pick Fail-Safe, Fail-Safe/Monitored, Fail-Secure, or Fail-Secure/Monitored when you order. The monitored versions are the ones to specify if your access control panel needs a strike status input back at the head end.
4) Which door should I NOT use the Adams Rite 7140 on?
Don't use it on a fire rated opening. The 7140 is not fire rated. For a labeled door, go to a strike that carries the rating, such as the Von Duprin 6400 with a 3-hour UL 10C fail-secure rating, the Von Duprin 4211 for cylindrical locks, or the Hager 2930 Grade 1 fire rated strike. The 7140 is a security strike for aluminum storefront, and it does carry UL 1034 burglary-resistant listing, but that is a different listing from a fire label.
5) My lockset is a cylindrical knob or lever, not an Adams Rite deadlatch. Can I still use the 7140?
Yes, if the latchbolt projects between 1/2 and 5/8 inch. The 7140 accepts Adams Rite and cylindrical latches in that range. Where it gets ruled out is a mortise lock with an auxiliary deadlatch and a longer throw, or a 3/4 inch throw latch. For 3/4 inch, look at the HES Folger Adam 310-1 strike body, which covers 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 inch throw latchbolts. Mortise locks call for something like the Von Duprin 6210 or the Securitron MUNL mortise unlatch strike.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Adams Rite 7140 electric strike if I need a fire rating on the opening?
The Adams Rite 7140 is not fire rated, so on a fire-rated opening look to a strike carried with a fire rating. The Hager 2930 is a fire rated Grade 1 electric strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage and field reversible fail safe/secure operation. The Von Duprin 4211 32D is also fire rated, Grade 1, heavy duty, and field-selectable 12/24 VDC for cylindrical locks. Both keep the dual-voltage and field-selectable fail-safe/fail-secure behavior the 7140 offers, which is the part most installers do not want to give up when they change strikes.
7) The Adams Rite 7140 will not work on my exit device opening - what electric strike should I use instead?
The 7140 is built for Adams Rite deadlatches and cylindrical latches with 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection, which rules out a rim exit device or vertical rod. For a rim exit device, the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and a latchbolt monitor, and the SDC 30-4 Series is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 in Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel. For surface vertical rods, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac. These are different keeper geometries, not a different finish of the same part.
8) Is there a Grade 1 alternative to the Adams Rite 7140 for a high-traffic commercial door?
The 7140 is a commercial strike with UL 1034 burglary-resistant listing and stainless steel construction. If the spec calls out an ANSI grade, the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is Grade 1 heavy duty for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable operation, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 heavy duty modular strike for mortise or cylindrical locks, fail-secure, in satin stainless steel with a 3-hour UL 10C fire rating in the fail-secure configuration. The 6400 is fail-secure only, so it does not cover an opening that needs the fail-safe side the 7140 offers.
9) The Adams Rite 7140 fits a mortise lock, right?
No - the 7140 is built for Adams Rite deadlatches and cylindrical locksets, and the lock type it is specified against is cylindrical. For a mortise lock, the Securitron MUNL Series is a Grade 1 fire rated mortise UnLatch strike, the Von Duprin 6210 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike for mortise locks at 24 VDC fail-secure with UL 10C fire rating, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D handles mortise or cylindrical in one modular Grade 1 body. This is the most common mis-order on a narrow aluminum job, because the faceplate can look right while the keeper geometry is wrong.
10) The Adams Rite 7140 has square corners - what if my prep has radius corners?
The 7140 faceplate is flat with square corners at 1-1/4 in x 4-7/8 in. Where the existing cutout has radius corners, the SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated electric strike with a radius corner faceplate and 5/8 in latchbolt compatibility, which matches the upper end of the 7140's 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection range. A universal body such as the Camden CX-ED1689L-4, fire rated and low profile with 4 faceplates, is the other way to cover a corner profile that is not yet confirmed.
11) I am standardizing electric strikes across a facility with mixed openings - is the Adams Rite 7140 the right single part number?
The 7140 standardizes well where the doors are narrow aluminum with Adams Rite deadlatches or cylindrical latches at 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection: one 4-7/8 in x 1-1/4 in prep, four fail-safe/fail-secure configurations including monitored, six voltage options, and four finishes in dark bronze anodized, black anodized, satin chrome, and clear anodized. Where the fleet also includes mortise locks and fire-rated openings, a single-number approach points instead to the Camden CX-ED1410/CX-ED1420 universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes or the Von Duprin 6400 32D modular Grade 1 body that takes mortise or cylindrical.
12) What finish will match my dark bronze storefront doors on an Adams Rite 7140?
Four finishes are offered: 313 dark bronze anodized, 335 black anodized, 626 satin chrome, and 628 clear anodized. For a bronze-anodized aluminum storefront, 313 is the match; for mill-finish or clear-anodized aluminum, 628. Satin chrome 626 is the one to pick if you are standardizing against brushed stainless hardware elsewhere in the building.
13) I'm standardizing electric strikes across a building with mixed aluminum storefront and hollow metal doors. Does one part cover both?
Not with the 7140. It's the narrow aluminum jamb answer, cut for 1/2 to 5/8 inch Adams Rite and cylindrical latches. The hollow metal and mortise side of the building needs a different body: the Von Duprin 6400 is a Grade 1 modular strike that covers both mortise and cylindrical locks, and Camden's CX-ED1410/CX-ED1420 universal Grade 1 fire rated strikes and the CX-ED1689L-4 low profile ship with multiple faceplates to cover several preps. Standardize on the brand and mode, and let the body follow the jamb.
14) If we lose power, should the Adams Rite 7140 be set fail-safe or fail-secure on an exterior storefront entry?
On an exterior entry, fail-secure is the normal setting: the strike stays locked when power drops, so the building isn't open after an outage, and free egress still comes from the deadlatch or exit device on the inside. Fail-safe releases on power loss and is used where the access control system is the only thing holding the door and egress or code requires release. The 7140 is field selectable between the two, so an installer can set it at the opening, but the ordered variant should still reflect the intended mode.
15) What is the difference between the Adams Rite 7140 and a universal electric strike with multiple faceplates?
The 7140 comes with one flat 1-1/4 in x 4-7/8 in faceplate with square corners, sized for aluminum jamb sections and for existing prep from discontinued narrow aluminum products, so it is chosen when the prep is already known. A universal strike ships several plates to cover unknown or mixed preps: the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire rated universal low profile strike with 4 faceplates, and the CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated dual monitor Grade 1 strike with 8 faceplates. Those are the pick when standardizing one part number across doors with different existing cutouts; the 7140 is the pick when the jamb is narrow aluminum.
16) I need latch monitoring on the strike - does the Adams Rite 7140 do that, and what else does?
The 7140 is offered in monitored versions of both operations: fail-safe/monitored and fail-secure/monitored. If a different body suits the opening better, the Dortronics 3300 Series has a latch bolt sensing switch with 12/24VDC and an ANSI 4-7/8 in x 1-1/4 in strike plate, the Hager 2945 carries a latchbolt monitor on a fire rated rim exit strike, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a dual monitor Grade 1 fire rated strike.
17) Are HES 1500 and 1600 parts a substitute for the Adams Rite 7140?
No. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 items are electric strike accessories for those Grade 1 fire rated series, not complete strike bodies, so they will not control a door on their own. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 fire rated electric strike body for 1/2 in, 5/8 in or 3/4 in throw latchbolts, which covers the 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection range the 7140 is built for and is the fairer body-to-body comparison.
18) I have a pair of doors - does the Adams Rite 7140 handle the double door opening?
The 7140 is a single strike for an aluminum jamb with a 1-1/4 in x 4-7/8 in flat faceplate. For a double door application, the Rockwood electric strike for double doors uses a 3/4 keeper and is Grade 1 and fire rated in the 310-1 Series. The keeper depth there is beyond the 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection the 7140 accepts, so it is a different part rather than a finish or voltage swap.
19) My power supply is 16 VAC - which strikes accept that besides the Adams Rite 7140?
The 7140 is ordered in 12, 16, and 24 volt in both AC and DC, so 16 VAC is a stock configuration rather than a special. Among peers, the Trine 004 runs 8-16VAC fail secure with a 6-1/4 in x 1-3/8 in faceplate and up to 5/8 in throw, and the Trine 2001 runs 16-24VAC/DC fail secure with a 5-7/8 in x 1-1/4 in faceplate and up to 5/8 in throw. Both Trine faceplates are longer than the 7140's 4-7/8 in plate, so a swap means new prep in the jamb.
20) Will an economy offset-latch strike work in place of the Adams Rite 7140?
Not on the same opening. The RCI 15BS is an economy strike for a special offset latch entry with fail-secure operation and is not fire rated - it is matched to an offset latch, not to the Adams Rite deadlatch or cylindrical latch with 1/2 in to 5/8 in projection the 7140 serves, and it does not offer the fail-safe side. If the requirement is simply a lower-feature strike on a standard latch, the SDC 15 Series 5/8 in latchbolt unit with 12/24 VDC is the closer match.
