HES 7000-107 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the HES 7000-107 keeper shim used for on an electric strike install?
The 7000-107 is an installation accessory for the HES 7000 Series electric strike. Shims go behind the keeper to take up the gap between the strike and the door latch, so the latchbolt seats cleanly and the keeper releases without binding. It is a mechanical fitting part, not an electrical one, so nothing about your wiring or voltage changes when you add one.
2) Will HES 7000-107 shims fit an electric strike other than the HES 7000 Series?
No. These shims are cut for the HES 7000 Series keeper and should be treated as a 7000 Series part only. If you are working on a different strike body, get the shim kit published for that specific series rather than adapting these, since a mismatched shim changes keeper alignment and can leave the latch held or the strike failing to relatch.
3) My electric strike opening has an alignment problem at the latch - are HES 7000-107 shims the right fix, or do I need a mortise pin transfer like the RCI 9500/9501?
They solve different problems. The HES 7000-107 keeper shims are an installation accessory for 7000 Series electric strikes, used to adjust the keeper position so the latchbolt seats correctly in the strike, and they ship three to a package. The RCI 9500/9501 Series mortise pin transfer is a tamper-resistant power transfer rated 1.5A at 24VAC that carries current from the frame into the door leaf. If the latch and keeper are not meeting, the shims are the mechanical adjustment; the 9500/9501 is what you add when the door itself needs electrified hardware fed with power.
4) How many shims come in the HES 7000-107 pack?
Three per package. Shims are typically stacked to dial in the exact gap you have, so ordering a single pack usually covers one opening with spares; if you are shimming several doors on a job, order a pack per opening rather than splitting one across doors.
5) Are HES 7000-107 keeper shims suitable for commercial openings?
Yes, they are a commercial-duty part and carry a Grade 1 designation, which is the heaviest ANSI/BHMA duty tier used in commercial door hardware. That makes them appropriate for high-traffic entries in schools, healthcare, multi-family, and office buildings where the strike is cycled constantly.
6) My electric strike is buzzing or not releasing cleanly. Is a shim the fix, or do I need a different part?
If the problem is latch preload or a keeper that is sitting too deep or too proud relative to the latchbolt, shims are the correct adjustment on a 7000 Series strike. If the issue is electrical instead (dropout voltage, transformer capacity), that is a power problem, and a supply such as the Adams Rite 4605 transformer, 115 VAC in to 12/24 VAC out at 40 volt-amps, is the part that addresses it. Shims will not compensate for undersized power.
7) Can a Securitron SAM surface mount kit accessory or SWB wood bracket be used in place of HES 7000-107 keeper shims?
No. The HES 7000-107 is a three-pack of 7000 Series keeper shims, an installation accessory for electric strikes sold in a package quantity of 3. The Securitron SAM Surface Mount Kit Accessories and the Securitron SWB SAM Wood Bracket are mounting accessories for the SAM magnetic lock line, so they address a surface-mounted maglock rather than the keeper alignment of a strike body in the frame. If the keeper on a 7000 Series strike needs to be packed out to meet the latchbolt, the 7000-107 shims are the part that does that job; the Securitron SAM pieces do not interchange with them.
8) We standardize on Grade 1 access control hardware - how does the HES 7000-107 shim pack compare to the Securitron glass door accessories on grade?
The HES 7000-107 keeper shim three-pack is rated Grade 1 and is specified for commercial use as an electric strike installation accessory. The Securitron Glass Door Accessories are listed at Grade 2 and belong to the Glass Door Series, which addresses all-glass and glass-front openings rather than framed openings taking a 7000 Series strike. For a facility standard written to Grade 1, the 7000-107 meets that mark; the glass door accessories serve a different opening type at a different grade.
9) Do I need power or wiring for the HES 7000-107 shims?
No wiring involved. Although they belong to the electronic access control family and are fitted to a powered strike, the shims themselves are plain mechanical spacers. They install during the strike fit-up with no connections, no polarity, and no effect on fail-safe or fail-secure operation.
10) Is a Command Access REX kit an alternative to HES 7000-107 keeper shims for getting an electrified opening working?
No, they address separate parts of the opening. The HES 7000-107 is a three-piece set of 7000 Series keeper shims used during electric strike installation to adjust how the keeper meets the latch. Command Access REX kits are field-installable request-to-exit switch kits tied to specific hardware: the CRSREXKIT-ED fits Cal Royal 22/98 and Sargent 80 Series exit devices with an SPDT switch, the CYREXKIT-ED fits Corbin 5000 and Yale 7000 exit devices with a 5A rating, and the REX-KIT-ML fits ML1-Series mortise locks. Those kits generate an exit signal from the door hardware; the shims are a mechanical fit adjustment at the frame and do not replace them.
