HES 8000 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to cut the frame to install the HES 8000 electric strike?
No cutting. The HES 8000 is built to drop into an existing cylindrical lockset prep: pull the old strike plate, set the vertical alignment to the latchbolt centerline, and mount it. The strike body is only 1-1/16 inches wide with a 1-7/16 inch depth, which is what lets it sit in the existing cavity. The description also states it falls within guidelines for retrofit into fire-rated frames. That no-cut retrofit is the main reason a property manager picks it for occupied buildings, since the opening stays intact.
2) Will an HES 8000 strike work with my mortise lock or exit device?
No. The 8000 is a cylindrical lockset strike only, sized for latchbolts from 1/2 inch up to 5/8 inch throw (5/8 inch requires a 1/8 inch door gap). For a mortise lock, look at the Von Duprin 6210 or the Securitron MUNL mortise unlatch strike; the Von Duprin 6400 handles mortise or cylindrical. For a rim exit device, the SDC 30-4 is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt, and the Hager 2945 is a rim exit strike with latchbolt monitor. Putting a cylindrical strike on a mortise opening leaves the deadlatch unsupported.
3) Can I use the HES 8000 on a fire-rated door opening?
Not as a fire-rated strike. The 8000 carries no fire rating, so it cannot serve where the opening requires a labeled fire strike, even though the description says it falls within guidelines for retrofit into fire-rated frames. If your spec calls for a fire rating on a cylindrical opening, the Adams Rite 7240 is fire rated for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection, the Hager 2930 is a fire rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks, and the Von Duprin 4211 is a Grade 1 fire rated cylindrical strike. This is the check to make before an institutional or healthcare job, because a non-labeled strike on a rated opening fails inspection.
4) Is the HES 8000 fail safe or fail secure, and can I change it on site?
Field selectable, both ways, on the same unit. Set it fail secure and the door stays locked when power drops, which is the usual choice for a perimeter or tenant entry. Set it fail safe and it releases on power loss, which is what an egress-driven spec calls for. Because the selection is made at install rather than at order, a locksmith carrying one part number can serve both conditions in the same building.
5) What voltage does the HES 8000 strike need, and will it run on PoE?
Dual voltage, 12 or 24 VDC, drawing 0.24 amps at 12V and 0.12 amps at 24V. It is PoE compatible, so it can run off a network-powered access control board without a separate power supply run. One caution on AC: the unit is continuous duty on DC but intermittent duty only on AC, so do not hold it energized on an AC supply. Wiring uses a plug-in connector rather than loose leads.
6) Will the HES 8000 still latch if my door has sagged or the frame is out of alignment?
Vertical adjustability is built in, so the keeper can be shifted to meet the latchbolt centerline instead of shimming the frame or planing the door. That is the difference between a strike that works on a 30-year-old hollow metal opening and one that only works on a new install. If the latchbolt is a full 5/8 inch throw, you need a 1/8 inch door gap for the strike to accept it; 1/2 inch latchbolts have more room.
7) What is the difference between the HES 8000 and the 8000-LBM?
The LBM adds a latchbolt monitor. The plain 8000 is a complete electric strike Pac that releases the door; the 8000-LBM does the same and reports whether the latchbolt is actually seated in the keeper, which is what an access control system needs to prove the door relatched rather than sitting propped. Specify LBM if your head end wants door status. Note that the complete Pacs come only in 630 satin stainless steel. If you need dual monitoring, the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a dual monitor Grade 1 strike, and the Dortronics 3300 has a latch bolt sensing switch with a 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inch ANSI prep plate.
8) Which faceplate should I order with the HES 8000 for my jamb?
Six plates cover the common jambs. Use 801 (4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inches) for cylindrical locksets in ANSI metal jambs, 801A for the same size with radius corners, a flat face and universal aluminum mounting tabs, and 801E when the jamb is a knock-down frame, since it has an extended lip. For longer coverage over an old cut, 802 is 7-15/16 x 1-7/16 inches, 803 is 6-7/8 x 1-1/4 inches with radius corners, and 805 is 9 x 1-3/8 inches with four-point mounting for wood. All six carry ANSI/BHMA #E05031, #E09321, #E09322 and #E09323, and all handle latchbolts up to 5/8 inch throw.
9) Can the HES 8000 handle a door with a lot of latch preload or wind pressure?
No. The 8000 is not preload capable and carries no windstorm rating, so an opening where the door presses hard against the latch (a stack-pressure stairwell, a strong closer against a warped frame, or a door under wind load) is the wrong application. Fix the alignment or specify a strike rated for preload. Its 1,500 lb static and 70 ft-lb dynamic strength are about resisting attack, not about releasing under a loaded latch.
10) Which electric strikes match the HES 8000 on Grade 1 and field-selectable fail safe or fail secure?
The HES 8000 Series is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 with field-selectable fail safe / fail secure operation. The closest peers on both counts are the Von Duprin 4211, a Grade 1 cylindrical-lock strike with 12/24 VDC field-selectable operation, and the Hager 2930, a Grade 1 strike with field reversible fail safe/secure operation and 12/24 VDC dual voltage. The Hager 2925 and 2928 also offer field reversible fail safe/secure operation, with the 2925 built for a 5/8 inch latch.
11) The opening has a mortise lock, not a cylindrical lockset. What replaces the HES 8000?
The HES 8000 Series is built for cylindrical locksets and a latchbolt, so a mortise opening needs a different strike. The Von Duprin 6210 is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise-lock strike at 24 VDC fail-secure with a UL 10C fire rating, and the Von Duprin 6400 is a Grade 1 modular strike that covers mortise or cylindrical locks, fail-secure, in satin stainless steel with a 3-hour UL 10C fire rating fail-secure. The Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch is another Grade 1 fire-rated mortise option.
12) What is the alternative to the HES 8000 for a rim exit device rather than a cylindrical latch?
The HES 8000 Series is a cylindrical lockset strike and does not serve a rim exit device. For a rim exit application 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 construction. The latchbolt monitor on the Hager 2945 is the same kind of position feedback the HES 8000 provides through its LBM model.
13) Can an AC-only or fail-secure-only strike substitute for the HES 8000?
Not without changing how the opening behaves. The HES 8000 is 12/24 VDC, PoE compatible, and field selectable between fail safe and fail secure. The Trine 004 runs 8-16 VAC and is fail secure with a 6-1/4 by 1-3/8 inch faceplate, and the Trine 2001 runs 16-24 VAC/DC fail secure with a 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate. The RCI 15BS is a fail-secure strike for a special offset latch entry. Each is locked to fail secure and to a different faceplate size, so the power supply and the frame prep both have to be revisited.
14) How much force will the HES 8000 strike hold, and is it rated for a high-traffic door?
1,500 lbs static holding force, 70 ft-lbs dynamic, and 1,000,000 cycles of endurance, at ANSI/BHMA A156.31 Grade 1. That cycle count is what matters on a school, hospital, or multi-family entry that gets hit hundreds of times a day. HES states the keeper pin locking design lets the strike exceed the ratings of the frame, door, and locking hardware around it, so the strike is not the weak point in the opening.
15) Can I put an HES 8000 electric strike on an exterior door?
Yes, it is rated for outdoor use and UL 1034 listed as burglary resistant and suitable for outdoor use. The body is stainless steel. If the application is a gate rather than a door, the Camden CX-ED1959 series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike instead.
16) Do I need to order the HES 8000 handed left or right?
Non-handed. One part number covers both swings, which is why it is a practical stocking item for a locksmith or a maintenance shop running a fleet of openings. It is also tamper resistant, and installation is the same regardless of which way the door swings.
17) What accessories do I need to run an HES 8000 off an AC transformer or add a buzzer?
Four plug-in accessories drop into the strike. The 2001M is a plug-in bridge rectifier, which is what you add when the available supply is AC and you want DC at the strike. The 2006M is a plug-in buzzer for signalling release. The 2005M3 SMART Pac III conditions power to the unit, and the 2004M is an ElectroLynx adapter for a connectorized wiring harness. They plug in rather than requiring rework at the strike.
18) What else could I use instead of an HES 8000 no-cut cylindrical strike?
For a straight Grade 1 cylindrical swap, the Von Duprin 4211 is heavy duty, Grade 1, 12/24 VDC field selectable and fire rated, and the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike. For a field reversible fail safe/fail secure unit like the 8000, the Hager 2925 handles a 5/8 inch latch. Locknetics NC450 is another no-cut strike. On the value end, the SDC 15 Series takes a 5/8 inch latchbolt on 12/24 VDC and the SDC 25 Series a 1/2 inch latchbolt. For an aluminum storefront jamb specifically, the Adams Rite 7100 and 7160 use a 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch faceplate, and the 7170 is the hollow metal and wood version.
19) Is the HES 8000 electric strike UL 294 listed for access control?
UL 294 listed, plus UL 1034 burglary resistant, and ANSI/BHMA A156.31 Grade 1. UL 294 is the listing an access control integrator needs when the strike is part of a monitored electrified opening, and it is the one a specification writer asks for by name on institutional work.
20) What electric strike works on a pair of doors instead of the HES 8000?
The HES 8000 mounts in the jamb against a cylindrical latchbolt, which assumes a strike-side frame. For a pair of doors, the Rockwood double door electric strike with a 3/4 keeper is Grade 1 and fire rated, built for that condition. Confirm the keeper size against the latch on the active leaf before ordering.
21) What is a lower-cost electric strike than the HES 8000 for a 5/8 inch cylindrical latchbolt?
The HES 8000 accommodates a 1/2 to 5/8 inch cylindrical latchbolt at Grade 1 with 1,500 lbs holding force and a million-cycle endurance rating. Where that strength is more than the opening needs, the SDC 15 Series is a value electric strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with 12/24 VDC operation, and the SDC 25 Series is a value strike for a 1/2 inch latchbolt. The Trine 001 Series is a light commercial fail-secure strike with a 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate, though it is fail secure only rather than field selectable.
22) Which electric strikes offer latchbolt monitoring like the HES 8000 LBM?
The HES 8000 is offered as a Complete Electric Strike Pac with Latchbolt Monitor. Peers with equivalent monitoring include the Dortronics 3300 Series, which carries a latch bolt sensing switch at 12/24 VDC on an ANSI 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch strike plate, the Hager 2945 rim exit strike with latchbolt monitor, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8, a Grade 1 fire-rated dual monitor strike supplied with eight faceplates.
23) Is the Locknetics NC450 no-cut strike the same thing as the HES 8000?
Both are marketed on avoiding frame cutting - the HES 8000 installs by removing the existing strike plate and adjusting the vertical alignment to the latchbolt centerline, with no frame cutting, and the Locknetics NC450 is a no-cut electric strike. They differ in what else they bring: the HES 8000 is Grade 1 with field-selectable fail safe / fail secure, 1,500 lbs static holding force, and is outdoor rated on 12/24 VDC. Match the strike to the jamb prep you actually have rather than assuming a no-cut claim makes them interchangeable.
24) Which electric strike should a facility standardize on when one model has to cover several different frame preps?
The HES 8000 covers hollow metal, aluminum, and wood frames on cylindrical locksets and is non-handed, which lets one model number serve mixed jambs across a building. Where the openings also include fire-rated doors, the Camden CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire-rated universal low profile strike supplied with four faceplates, and the Von Duprin 6400 is a Grade 1 modular strike that covers mortise or cylindrical locks.
25) What Grade 1 heavy duty electric strikes are cross-referenced against the HES 8000?
The HES 8000 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 with 1,500 lbs static strength, 70 ft-lbs dynamic strength, and a 1,000,000 cycle endurance rating. On the heavy duty side of the set, the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electric strike, the Locknetics MDS100 and MS100 in US32D are heavy duty strikes, and the Von Duprin 4211 in 32D is a heavy duty Grade 1 strike for cylindrical locks.
26) Is the SDC 45F a drop-in swap for the HES 8000?
They serve the same 5/8 inch latchbolt, but they are not the same part. The SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated electric strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with a radius corner faceplate, while the HES 8000 is not fire rated and its 801 flat faceplate measures 4-7/8 inches with radius-corner options offered separately. On a labeled opening the 45F is the one that carries the rating; on a non-rated opening, check which faceplate profile the existing jamb cutout was prepped for.
