Adams Rite 7270-340-630-00 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Adams Rite 7270 electric strike work with a mortise lock that has a 3/4 inch latchbolt?
That is exactly what the 7270 is built around. It accepts mortise or cylindrical locksets with latch projection up to 3/4 inch, and the keeper is adjustable stainless steel so you can take up slack between the latch and the strike. On a 3/4 inch throw latch you need a minimum 1/8 inch door gap for the keeper to clear. If your lock throws more than 3/4 inch, this is the wrong strike.
2) Which lip extension do I order on the 7270 electric strike?
Two lip lengths are offered: 1-1/16 inch or less, and 1-3/8 inch. The lip has to reach past the door stop far enough that the latch rides onto the keeper cleanly, so measure from the strike face to the face of the door. Deeper stop or a door set back further in the frame is where the 1-3/8 inch lip earns its keep. Standard hollow metal jamb prep usually takes the shorter one.
3) Will the 7270 strike fit a standard ANSI 4-7/8 inch jamb prep?
The faceplate is 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches with square corners in satin stainless, which is the common ANSI strike prep footprint in a hollow metal frame. Square corners matter here: if your existing cutout has radius corners, this plate will not seat flush without frame work. The Dortronics 3300 Series is another strike we carry cut for the same 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inch ANSI prep if you need an alternative on that same cutout.
4) Can I put the Adams Rite 7270 electric strike on an aluminum storefront or a wood door?
No. The 7270 is specified for installation in hollow metal door jambs. Aluminum storefront and wood frames need a strike bodied and prepped for that frame material. Trying to force this one into a narrow aluminum jamb is how you end up with a cutout you cannot undo.
5) Is the Adams Rite 7270 fail-safe or fail-secure, and can I change it after it is installed?
Fail-safe and fail-secure are field selectable on the 7270, so one strike covers either scheme without reordering. The catch is the fire rating: on a fire-rated opening it has to be set fail-secure, and the UL 10C 3-hour rating only applies in that mode. Fail-safe releases the door when power drops, which is what you want on an egress-controlled door that is not fire rated. Set it, test it, and document the setting before you close out the job.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Adams Rite 7270 electric strike for a mortise lock on a fire-rated opening?
The Adams Rite 7270 takes mortise or cylindrical locksets with up to 3/4 inch latchbolt projection and is UL 10C fire rated for 3-hour single door use in fail-secure mode. The Von Duprin 6400 32D is the nearest match on the same points: it is a Grade 1 modular electric strike for mortise or cylindrical locks, fail-secure, rated 3-hour UL 10C fail-secure, in satin stainless steel. The Von Duprin 6210 is the mortise-only counterpart, heavy duty Grade 1, UL 10C fire rated, running 24 VDC fail-secure, where the 7270 is field selectable across 12 and 24 volt AC and DC.
7) My opening has surface vertical rod exit devices, not a mortise lock. What strike do I order instead of the Adams Rite 7270?
The Adams Rite 7270 is made for mortise or cylindrical locksets with up to 3/4 inch latchbolt projection, so it is not the part for a vertical rod device. The HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac built for surface vertical rods. 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 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel. On a pair of doors, the Rockwood double door electric strike with a 3/4 keeper is a Grade 1 fire rated option in the 310-1 series.
8) Can I use the Trine 001 or the RCI 15BS in place of the Adams Rite 7270?
No, not on a fire door. The Adams Rite 7270 is UL 10C fire rated for 3-hour single door applications in fail-secure mode with CAN/ULC-S104 fire door conformance. The Trine 001 Series is a light commercial fail-secure strike with a 5-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch faceplate and is not fire rated, and the RCI 15BS economy strike for special offset latch entry with fail-secure operation is not fire rated either. Both suit non-rated openings only.
9) Does the Adams Rite 7270 strike run on 12 or 24 volts, AC or DC?
Both, and both current types. The 7270 is ordered as 12 VDC, 24 VDC, 12 VAC, or 24 VAC, with current draw between 0.17A and 1.42A depending on the voltage you select. Size the power supply from the voltage you order, since an AC-fed strike buzzes by design and a DC-fed one holds silent. That silent-versus-buzz difference is usually the deciding factor on an office or healthcare corridor.
10) Do I need the monitored version of the 7270 electric strike?
Order the monitored option if your access control panel needs to know the door actually secured, rather than just that it was released. Every 7270 comes in a plain fail-secure build or a fail-secure/monitored build across all four voltages. Monitoring is what feeds a door-position or latch-status input on the panel, and on healthcare, detention-adjacent, and secured storage openings it is usually required by the specification. On a plain remote-release door it is cost you do not need.
11) What is the difference between the Adams Rite 7270 and the Von Duprin 6210 or 6400 electric strike?
All three are fire-rated strikes for mortise locks. The 7270 takes mortise or cylindrical latches up to 3/4 inch projection and is field-selectable fail-safe or fail-secure across 12 and 24 volt, AC or DC. The Von Duprin 6210 is a 24 VDC fail-secure, UL 10C fire rated Grade 1 strike for mortise locks only. The Von Duprin 6400 is a Grade 1 modular fail-secure strike for mortise or cylindrical locks, 3-hour UL 10C, in satin stainless. If the spec on your drawing calls out a Grade 1 designation, the Von Duprin units carry that stated grade.
12) I need a fire-rated electric strike but my lock only throws 5/8 inch. What should I use instead of the 7270?
The 7270 will still accept a 5/8 inch latch since it covers projections up to 3/4 inch, but if you would rather match the strike to the latch, the Hager 2930 is a fire-rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24 VDC dual voltage and field reversible fail safe/secure. The SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated strike built for 5/8 inch latchbolts with a radius corner faceplate, which is the one to look at if your frame prep has radius corners rather than square.
13) I am standardizing electric strikes across a portfolio of hollow metal doors. Does the 7270 cover both my mortise and cylindrical lock openings?
It does, which is the main reason a property manager or facilities buyer picks it for a fleet. One part number covers mortise and cylindrical locksets as long as latch projection stays at or under 3/4 inch, on hollow metal jambs, with the same 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch square corner satin stainless plate on every door. You still choose voltage, lip extension, and whether that opening needs monitoring, so survey the frames before you place a bulk order rather than assuming one lip length fits the whole building.
14) What is the difference between the Adams Rite 7270 and the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X)?
Both are fire rated strikes that suit a 3/4 inch throw latchbolt. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 strike body covering 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts, so one body spans three latch throws. The Adams Rite 7270 is supplied complete with a 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch square corner faceplate in satin stainless, an adjustable stainless steel keeper, field selectable fail safe/fail secure operation, and 12 or 24 volt operation, ordered by lip extension of 1-1/16 inch or less or 1-3/8 inch.
15) Which electric strikes offer a Grade 1 rating comparable to the Adams Rite 7270 for a healthcare or school standardization spec?
If a facility standard calls out ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 by name, the peers that carry that grade with fire rating include the Von Duprin 6400 32D (Grade 1, heavy duty, 3-hour UL 10C fail-secure), the Von Duprin 6210 for mortise locks (Grade 1, heavy duty, UL 10C), the Von Duprin 4211 32D for cylindrical locks (Grade 1, heavy duty, fire rated), the Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch (Grade 1, fire rated), and the Alarm Controls AES-100 (Grade 1, heavy duty). The Adams Rite 7270 answers the fire side of that spec with UL 10C 3-hour single door fail-secure rating and CAN/ULC-S104 conformance, plus a stainless steel keeper.
16) I do not want to cut the jamb. Is there an alternative to the Adams Rite 7270?
The Adams Rite 7270 mounts in a hollow metal door jamb aligned to the mortise latchbolt centerline, which means jamb prep. The Locknetics NC450 is a no cut electric strike, and the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire rated universal low profile strike supplied with 4 faceplates so one part covers several existing preps. The Camden CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes on the same idea.
17) Can I put an SDC 15 Series in where an Adams Rite 7270 was?
Only if the latch matches. The SDC 15 Series is a value electric strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with 12/24 VDC operation, while the Adams Rite 7270 accepts up to a 3/4 inch latchbolt projection from a mortise or cylindrical lockset and needs a minimum 1/8 inch door gap for 3/4 inch throw latches. The 7270 also runs 12 or 24 volt AC as well as DC and is UL 10C fire rated for 3-hour single door use in fail-secure mode. On a rated opening with a 3/4 inch throw latch, the SDC 15 is not the swap.
18) What are the heavy duty electric strike options if the Adams Rite 7270 does not suit my abuse-prone opening?
For high-traffic or abuse-prone doors, the heavy duty peers are the Alarm Controls AES-100 in the AES Series (Grade 1, heavy duty), the Locknetics MDS100 US32D and Locknetics MS100 US32D, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D, which is Grade 1 heavy duty and rated 3-hour UL 10C in fail-secure. The Adams Rite 7270 itself uses a stainless steel adjustable keeper and is fire rated, so on a rated opening the 6400 is the heavy duty peer that holds both attributes.
