Camden Door Controls CX-EPD2000L – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Camden CX-EPD2000L electric strike come with a faceplate?
No. The Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is the standard strike body only, and you choose from four faceplates separately. Plan the faceplate order alongside the body so the prep on your frame is matched before install.
2) Will a Camden Series 20 strike work with my cylindrical lockset latch?
Yes, if the latch projection falls between 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch. The Series 20 is built for cylindrical locksets in that throw range, and the keeper is adjustable so you can dial in the gap to the latch. Mortise locks with a longer deadlatch throw are outside that range.
3) What does the pre-load rating on this Camden strike actually do for me?
On doors that get pushed or pulled against the frame (stack pressure, weatherstrip compression, a closer holding the leaf tight), a standard strike keeper can bind and refuse to release. The Series 20 is rated for 20 lbs of pre-load in fail secure mode, meaning it will still release with that much side pressure on the latch. Fail safe mode does not carry the pre-load rating.
4) Is this strike fail safe or fail secure, and can I change it in the field?
Both, selectable on the unit. You set the Camden Series 20 for fail safe (unlocks on power loss) or fail secure (stays locked on power loss) as the opening requires, so one part number covers an egress-side application and a secured storeroom-style application.
5) What voltage and current do I need to size the power supply for this strike?
It runs 12 or 24V, AC or DC, so it drops onto most existing access control power. Current draw is 130 mA at 12 VDC, 200 mA at 12 VAC, and 70 mA at 24V AC/DC. Duty is continuous, so you can hold it energized indefinitely in fail safe setups without a duty-cycle limit.
6) Will the Camden Series 20 strike body fit my existing frame cutout?
The body measures 4-1/8 inches by 1-3/4 inches by 1-1/2 inches (105 x 44 x 38 mm), so you need 1-1/2 inches of depth behind the faceplate in the jamb. Check your existing cavity against those numbers before you commit, since the faceplate is ordered separately and determines the visible prep.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Camden CX-EPD2000L for a cylindrical lockset opening on a fire-rated door?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is built for cylindrical locksets with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch latch projection and is not fire rated. For a fire-rated cylindrical opening, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is an electric strike for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable operation, Grade 1, and a fire rating; the Hager 2930 is a fire rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage; and the Adams Rite 7240 is a fire-rated strike for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection.
8) Will the Camden Series 20 standard body work in an aluminum storefront jamb, or is there a better choice?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L standard body measures 4-1/8 inch H x 1-3/4 inch W x 1-1/2 inch D and is supplied without a faceplate, with a selection of four faceplates for the standard body. For aluminum jambs specifically, the Adams Rite 7100 Series comes with a flat 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate for aluminum jambs and the Adams Rite 7160 is also for aluminum jambs with a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate; the Adams Rite 7170 covers hollow metal and wood jambs.
9) Can the Camden Series 20 be used with an exit device rim or vertical rod latch?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is specified for cylindrical locksets with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch latch projection, so exit device latches are a different product. For a rim exit device, the SDC 30-4 Series is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel and the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike. For surface vertical rods, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 strike pac.
10) I want to avoid cutting the jamb - is the Camden Series 20 the right strike, or is there a no-cut option?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is a standard body strike, 4-1/8 inch H x 1-3/4 inch W x 1-1/2 inch D, supplied without a faceplate and prepped for one of four faceplates, so it expects a jamb cutout. Where jamb cutting is to be avoided, the Locknetics NC450 is a No Cut electric strike.
11) Does this strike report whether the door is actually latched?
Yes. Latch monitoring is standard on every Series 20 model, so you can wire a monitor output back to the access control panel or alarm to confirm the latch is seated rather than just confirming the strike was released.
12) Is this strike tough enough for a high-traffic commercial entrance?
It is a commercial-duty unit rated at 1,500 lbs static strength and 500,000 cycles, with continuous duty. For a main entry or a multi-family common door that cycles all day, those are the two numbers that matter. Operation is an initial buzz then silent, so it will not hum continuously in a quiet lobby.
13) I need to avoid cutting a new frame prep. Is the Camden Series 20 the right choice?
No, this one needs a frame cavity for a 1-1/2 inch deep body plus whichever faceplate you select. If you are trying to avoid a cut, the Locknetics NC450 is a no-cut electric strike. The Dortronics 3300 Series is another route when your frame already carries a standard ANSI prep, since its strike plate is sized for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches.
14) What are the Grade 1 heavy duty alternatives to the Camden Series 20 electric strike?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is a commercial strike rated to 1,500 lbs static strength and 500,000 cycles on continuous duty. Comparable Grade 1 heavy duty units include the Alarm Controls AES-100, the Von Duprin 4211 32D for cylindrical locks, the Von Duprin 6210 for mortise locks, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D modular strike. The Locknetics MDS100 and MS100 are also catalogued at heavy duty.
15) What is a simpler alternative to the Camden Series 20 pre load strike if I do not need pre load, latch monitoring or an adjustable keeper?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L carries a 20 lb pre load rating in fail secure, standard latch monitoring and an adjustable keeper. If none of that is required, the SDC 15 Series is a value strike for 5/8 inch latchbolts with 12/24 VDC operation, the SDC 25 Series covers 1/2 inch latchbolts, the Trine 001 Series is a fail-secure light commercial strike with a 5-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch faceplate, and the RCI 15BS is an economy fail-secure strike for special offset latch entry.
16) Which electric strikes besides the Camden Series 20 include latch monitoring?
Latch monitoring is standard on the Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L. Among comparable strikes, the Dortronics 3300 Series includes a latch bolt sensing switch and a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch on 12/24VDC, and the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and a latchbolt monitor.
17) Which strikes take AC-only or higher voltage than the Camden Series 20?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L runs 12/24V AC/DC with a current draw of 130 mA at 12 VDC, 200 mA at 12 VAC and 70 mA at 24V AC/DC. If the power supply is AC only, the Trine 004 strike is listed at 8-16VAC fail secure with up to 5/8 inch throw and the Trine 2001 is 16-24VAC/DC fail secure with a 5-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch faceplate.
18) Are the HES 1500 and 1600 items substitutes for the Camden Series 20 strike?
No. The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L is a complete standard strike body with adjustable keeper and latch monitoring, ordered without a faceplate. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 items are electric strike accessories for those Grade 1 series, not strike bodies, so they will not replace a Camden Series 20 on an opening.
19) I need one strike model that can be configured for either lock type across a building - what are the options alongside the Camden Series 20?
The Camden Series 20 CX-EPD2000L standardizes on cylindrical locksets and gives adjustability through an adjustable keeper, selectable fail safe/fail secure, dual 12/24V AC/DC and a choice of four faceplates on the standard body. For a single model spanning both lock types, the Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 modular strike for mortise or cylindrical locks and the Hager 2930 is a Grade 1 fire rated strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage.
