HES HES-SMB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the HES SMB surface mounting box used for?
The HES SMB provides surface mounting for electric strikes when recessed installation is not possible. It mounts directly to door frames and walls. Common applications include retrofit installations and hollow metal frames without sufficient depth.
2) Which HES electric strikes are compatible with this mounting box?
This mounting box is designed for specific HES electric strike models. Verify compatibility with your strike model before ordering. Check the strike's mounting dimensions and power requirements against the box specifications.
3) Can this box work with both fail-safe and fail-secure strikes?
The mounting box accommodates both fail-safe and fail-secure electric strikes. The box provides mounting only. The fail-safe or fail-secure operation depends on the specific strike installed inside.
4) What finish options are available for the SMB mounting box?
HES mounting boxes typically come in satin stainless steel or dark bronze finishes. Verify the specific finish available for this model when ordering. Choose finishes that match your door hardware and frame.
5) What power requirements does this mounting box support?
The mounting box itself requires no power. It provides wiring pathways for the electric strike installed inside. Power requirements depend on the specific strike model. Most HES strikes operate on 12VDC or 24VDC.
6) Does this mounting box meet fire code requirements?
Fire code compliance depends on the complete installation including the strike and door assembly. The mounting box is designed for commercial applications. Verify local fire code requirements with your authority having jurisdiction.
7) What parts and hardware come with the SMB mounting box?
The package typically includes the mounting box housing and basic mounting hardware. The electric strike is sold separately. Additional mounting screws or anchors may be needed depending on frame material and construction.
8) How do you install the HES SMB surface mounting box?
Mount the box to the door frame or adjacent wall using appropriate fasteners. Route wiring through the box before installing the strike. Follow HES installation templates for precise positioning. Ensure proper alignment with the door latch or bolt.
9) Are there maintenance requirements for this mounting box?
The mounting box requires minimal maintenance. Check mounting fasteners periodically for tightness. Keep wiring connections clean and secure. Most maintenance involves the electric strike components rather than the box itself.
10) What are alternatives to surface mounting boxes for electric strikes?
Recessed installation directly into the frame is preferred when possible. Frame reinforcement plates work for some applications. Consider frame modifications or different strike models if surface mounting is not acceptable for the installation.
11) Can this box be used in outdoor or weather-exposed locations?
Check the manufacturer specifications for environmental ratings. Most surface mounting boxes are designed for interior use. Exterior applications may require weatherproof enclosures or different mounting solutions.
12) What are the key measurements needed before ordering this mounting box?
Measure the door frame thickness and available mounting space. Check the electric strike dimensions to ensure proper fit. Verify clearance for door operation and strike alignment. Use manufacturer templates for exact positioning requirements.
