HES 9500 Electric Strike, Surface Mounted


Works with rim exit devices up to 3/4" throw Pullman latchbolt

The durable, fire rated surface mounted solution.

The HES 9500 Series Electric Strike is a three hour fire rated, surface mounted electric strike designed to accommodate rim exit devices with a 3/4" throw Pullman latchbolt. All components are completely encased within its 3/4" thick stainless steel housing, so no cutting on the frame is required for installation. Simply place the electric strike on the surface of the frame, align it with the exit latchbolt and install. Adjustments have never been easier as the base is now separate from the cover.

The HES 9500 exceeds Grade 1 standards for strength and performance. It is field selectable for fail safe / fail secure operation, and for 12 or 24 VDC. This unique electric strike complies with NFPA 80-07 guidelines for retrofit into fire rated frames.

HES 9500 630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the HES 9500 electric strike work with my rim exit device?
The HES 9500 accepts rim exit devices with a Pullman latchbolt up to 3/4 inch throw, which covers most standard rim devices. It is non-handed, so one part number serves both left and right hand openings and you do not specify hand when ordering. Where it will not work: an exit device using a starwheel or interlocking latchbolt instead of a Pullman latch. For that latch style, the Adams Rite 7800 is the strike built for starwheel and interlocking latchbolts.
2) Can I add an electric strike to an existing exit device door without cutting the frame?
That is exactly what the HES 9500 is for. It mounts on the face of the frame with all components encased in a 3/4 inch thick stainless steel housing, so no frame cutting or mortising is required. Set it on the frame, line it up with the exit device latchbolt, and fasten. It installs on metal or wood frames, the base is separate from the cover so alignment can be adjusted after mounting, and it has horizontal adjustability to dial in the latch. HES states it complies with NFPA 80-07 guidelines for retrofit into fire rated frames, which is the point that usually stops a retrofit on a labeled opening.
3) Is the HES 9500 fire rated, and can I use it on a labeled fire door?
Three hour fire rated. The HES 9500 surface mounted electric strike is UL 10C fire rated at 3 hours in the fail secure configuration, conformant to CAN4-S104 (ULC-S104), NFPA-252 and ASTM-E152, WHI fire door listed, and California Fire Marshall listed. The fire rating is tied to fail secure operation, so a strike set to fail safe (unlocked on power loss) is not the configuration that carries the 3 hour listing. It also complies with NFPA 80-07 for retrofit into fire rated frames, so it can go on an existing labeled opening.
4) Do I have to order the HES 9500 as fail safe or fail secure, and what voltage do I specify?
Neither is ordered separately. Both fail safe and fail secure operation are field selectable on the HES 9500, and so is the voltage, 12 or 24 VDC. One strike covers all four combinations, which is why it works as a truck stock item for a locksmith carrying openings with different power supplies. The choice is made at install: fail secure keeps the opening locked when power drops, fail safe releases it. On a fire rated opening, set it fail secure, since the UL 10C 3 hour rating is stated for fail secure.
5) What is the difference between the 9500, 9500-LBM and 9500-LBSM, and which one do I need?
Three build options on the HES 9500. Plain 9500 is the strike alone, no monitoring output. 9500-LBM adds a latchbolt monitor, a switch that reports whether the exit device latchbolt is actually projected into the strike. 9500-LBSM is the latchbolt strike monitor version, which reports the latchbolt plus the keeper position, so the panel sees both that the door latched and that the strike is back in its locked state. If the access control system or alarm panel needs a secure and latched signal from the opening, order LBM or LBSM at the outset, because the monitoring is built into the unit and is not a field add-on. All eight finishes are offered in all three builds.
6) My exterior door is under pressure from weatherstripping and the latch binds. Will the HES 9500 still release?
The HES 9500 is specified as not preload capable, so it is the wrong strike for an opening where the latchbolt is being pushed against the keeper by stack pressure, aggressive gasketing, a door out of alignment, or a closer holding tension on the latch. Under that load an electric strike that is not preload rated may not release when energized. For those openings, specify a strike rated for preload, or correct the door alignment and gasket pressure first. On a normally hung opening with no standing pressure on the latch, the 9500 releases as intended.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the HES 9500 electric strike from another manufacturer?
The nearest match is the Von Duprin 6300, which is also a surface mounted electric strike for rim exit devices, ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, fire rated, heavy duty, and cycle tested to 2,000,000 cycles. The HES 9500 is Grade 1, fire rated, field selectable for fail safe or fail secure operation, rated for 1,000,000 endurance cycles, and holds 1,500 lbs static with 70 ft-lbs dynamic strength. Both are surface mounted strikes built for rim devices, so the decision usually comes down to matching the latch your exit device throws, the finish you are carrying on the rest of the openings, and whether you need the latchbolt monitoring the 9500 offers as the LBM and LBSM models.
8) Can I use an Adams Rite 7800 in place of an HES 9500 on my rim exit device?
Only if the latch matches, because the two are built for different latch types. The HES 9500 accommodates rim exit devices with up to a 3/4 inch throw Pullman latchbolt. The Adams Rite 7800 is an electric strike for rim exit devices with starwheel or interlocking latchbolts. Look at the device on the door before you order: a standard rim device with a Pullman latch is what the 9500 is cut for, while a starwheel or interlocking latch points to the 7800 instead. Getting this wrong is not a finish or voltage problem you can adjust in the field, it is the wrong keeper geometry for the latch.
9) I need an electric strike for a rim exit device on a fire rated frame. Will an Adams Rite 74R1 or 74R2 work?
Not on a fire rated opening. The Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline electric strikes for rim exit devices both carry a fire rating of No. For a fire rated frame, the HES 9500 is fire rated, UL 10C fire rated for 3 hours in fail secure, and complies with NFPA 80-07 guidelines for retrofit into fire rated frames, which matters because it is surface mounted and requires no cutting of the frame. The Von Duprin 6111 and the Von Duprin 6300 are also fire rated strikes for rim exit devices if you are cross-checking against a spec that names those series.
10) How much current does the HES 9500 draw, and what size power supply do I need?
Draw is .45 amps at 12 VDC or .25 amps at 24 VDC, both continuous duty, so the strike can be held energized indefinitely. That matters most in fail safe, where the solenoid is powered whenever the door is locked. Size the supply for the full continuous figure per strike, not a momentary rating, and add up every strike on the same supply. If the source is AC, the 2001M plug-in bridge rectifier converts it, and the 2005M3 SMART Pac III is the HES power accessory for the series. The 2004M ElectroLynx adapter handles quick-connect wiring, and the 2006M plug-in buzzer adds an audible release cue.
11) Can the HES 9500 be used on an exterior door, and is it rated for a hurricane or windstorm opening?
Exterior use is fine. The HES 9500 is UL 1034 burglary-resistant listed and suitable for outdoor use, with stainless steel construction throughout the housing. What it is not is windstorm rated, so it should not be specified where the opening has to be part of a windstorm or hurricane rated assembly. For a coastal or storm-rated opening, the strike has to carry that rating in its own right, and this one does not.
12) Is the HES 9500 strong enough for a high traffic entrance that gets abused?
The numbers behind it: 1,500 lbs static strength, 70 ft-lbs dynamic strength, and 1,000,000 cycles of endurance testing, which HES states exceeds Grade 1 for strength and performance. It is ANSI/BHMA A156.31 Grade 1 and tamper resistant with the solenoid mounted internally, so there is nothing exposed on the frame face to pry at. That is the profile for a school, hospital, or apartment main entrance. If the opening is heavier still, the Von Duprin 6300 is another Grade 1 surface mounted strike for rim devices and is stated as 2,000,000 cycle tested.
13) Is the Adams Rite Ultraline 74R1 or 74R2 an alternative to the HES 9500 on a fire rated opening?
Not on a labeled fire opening. The Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline strikes are rim exit device strikes with field selectable fail safe and fail secure operation like the 9500, but both are recorded as not fire rated. If the opening carries a fire label, that rules them out and the HES 9500, at UL 10C 3 hour in fail secure, is the one that holds the rating. On a non-rated opening, such as an interior stair or a cross-corridor door with no label, the Ultraline strikes are a legitimate alternative.
14) How does the HES 9500 differ from the Von Duprin 6111?
They overlap closely on the electrical and code side and separate on how they go into the frame. The Von Duprin 6111 is a 6100 series heavy duty Grade 1 electric strike for rim exit devices, UL 10C fire rated, running 12 or 24 VDC with fail safe or fail secure operation. The HES 9500 is also Grade 1, fire rated, and field selectable for both fail safe or fail secure and 12 or 24 VDC, and it is surface mounted with a 9 inch faceplate: the strike sets on the face of the frame and aligns to the exit latchbolt, so no cutting of the frame is required, which is the reason it is used on retrofits into existing fire rated frames. The 9500 is also non-handed and outdoor rated.
15) What is a simpler alternative to the HES 9500 for an interior opening that is not fire rated?
The Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline electric strikes are built for rim exit devices with field selectable fail safe and fail secure operation, and both are non fire rated, so they suit an interior opening where no fire label is involved. The HES 9500 is the choice when the opening carries requirements beyond that: it is fire rated, outdoor rated, ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, and installs in metal or wood frames without cutting because everything is encased in a 3/4 inch thick stainless steel housing that sits on the face of the frame. On a plain interior corridor door with no label and no exposure, the Ultraline strikes cover the same rim device function.
16) Which surface mounted electric strike should I put on an exterior door with a rim exit device?
The HES 9500 is outdoor rated, with a stainless steel housing and UL 1034 burglary-resistant listing suitable for outdoor use, and it holds 1,500 lbs static with 70 ft-lbs dynamic strength across 1,000,000 cycles, which is the combination you want on a perimeter door taking weather and traffic. It is field selectable for 12 or 24 VDC so it will run off whichever supply is already at the opening. The Von Duprin 6300 is the other surface mounted option for rim exit devices in the same class, Grade 1, fire rated, heavy duty, and tested to 2,000,000 cycles. Both mount to the face of the frame rather than into it.
17) I am standardizing rim exit device electric strikes across a facility with a mix of labeled and unlabeled openings. Which model covers the most doors?
The HES 9500 is the widest single spec of the group: fire rated and NFPA 80-07 compliant for retrofit into fire rated frames, outdoor rated for exterior openings, Grade 1, non-handed, and approved for both metal and wood frames, with field selection for 12 or 24 VDC and for fail safe or fail secure at install. That means one part number and one stocked spare can serve labeled, unlabeled, interior and exterior openings, in seven finishes plus black suede powder. If the specification on a project names Von Duprin, the 6111 and the 6300 are the fire rated Grade 1 heavy duty equivalents for rim exit devices, with the 6300 being the surface mounted one.
18) What finishes does the HES 9500 come in to match the other hardware in my building?
Eight finishes, and each one is offered in all three builds (plain 9500, 9500-LBM, 9500-LBSM): 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 629 bright stainless steel, 630 satin stainless steel, and BSP black suede powder. For a building already standardized on 630 satin stainless, which is the usual commercial default alongside aluminum and stainless exit devices, that is the match. The cover is separate from the base, so what shows on the frame is the finished decorative cover.
