ROFU 1403-08 US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the ROFU 1403 electric strike work with my 5/8 inch latchbolt?
Yes. The 1403 keeper accepts up to 5/8 inch latch projection, and with a 1/8 inch door-to-frame clearance it will take 3/4 inch. If your lock throws more than that, or you are latching a Pullman or rim exit latch, you need a different strike body.
2) Does the ROFU 1403 strike need to be ordered left or right hand?
No handing to specify. The 1403 is reversible and non-handed, so the same unit goes into a left or right hand opening. You pick finish and voltage only.
3) What happens to the ROFU 1403 when the power goes out?
It stays locked. The 1403 is fail secure, so loss of power leaves the keeper held and the door secured from the outside; egress is by turning the lever or knob on the inside, which retracts the latch mechanically. If code or your security plan requires the opening to release on power loss, you want a fail safe strike instead, such as the Hager 2925, which is field reversible between fail safe and fail secure.
4) Can the ROFU 1403 be installed in an aluminum storefront jamb?
Yes. The anodized aluminum faceplate suits hollow metal, aluminum, and wood frames, so it covers storefront jambs as well as HM and wood-framed openings. Confirm the jamb depth will take the strike body behind the 1-1/4 by 6-7/8 inch faceplate.
5) Which voltage of the ROFU 1403 should I order for my access control panel?
Three voltage builds are offered: 8-16 VAC / 3-6 VDC, 12 VAC/VDC, and 24 VAC/VDC. Match it to the output of your power supply or panel. The 8-16 VAC version is the one to use behind a doorbell-type AC transformer; 12 or 24 VAC/VDC suits most access control and card reader power supplies. Voltage is fixed at the time of order, not field selectable.
6) Is the ROFU 1403 suitable for a fire rated door?
Use a strike that carries a fire label for that opening. The 1403 is a commercial fail secure strike for hollow metal, aluminum, and wood frames. For a labeled door, look at fire rated units such as the Von Duprin 6400, rated 3-hour UL 10C in fail-secure, the Hager 2930, or the SDC 45F.
7) Will the ROFU 1403 work behind a rim exit device?
No. It is a strike for a standard cylindrical or mortise latchbolt up to 5/8 inch projection (3/4 inch with 1/8 inch clearance). A rim panic latch needs a rim-mount strike such as the SDC 30-4 for 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolts, and surface vertical rod openings take something like the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 pac.
8) I need a fire-rated electric strike - can I use the ROFU 1403?
The ROFU 1403 is described as a fail-secure strike for hollow metal, aluminum or wood frames; if the opening requires a fire-rated strike, choose a peer that carries the rating. The Von Duprin 4211 is a Grade 1 fire-rated strike for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable voltage, the Hager 2930 is a fire-rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24 VDC dual voltage, and the SDC 45F is a fire-rated strike for 5/8 inch latchbolts with a radius corner faceplate. The Von Duprin 6400 carries a 3-hour UL 10C rating in fail-secure.
9) What is the closest equivalent to the ROFU 1403 electric strike from another brand?
The ROFU 1403 is a fail-secure strike with a 1-1/4 inch x 6-7/8 inch faceplate that accepts up to a 5/8 inch latch projection. The closest cross-brand match on latch throw and fail-secure operation is the Trine 001 Series light commercial fail-secure strike with a 5-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch faceplate, and the Trine 2001 fail-secure strike with a 5-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch faceplate rated up to 5/8 inch throw at 16-24 VAC/DC. Both are an inch shorter in faceplate length, so the jamb cutout differs even though the function matches.
10) The jamb is prepped for a 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike plate - will the ROFU 1403 fit?
No. The ROFU 1403 faceplate is 1-1/4 inch x 6-7/8 inch, so an existing 4-7/8 inch ANSI cutout would have to be lengthened. For that prep as-is, the Adams Rite 7170 for hollow metal and wood jambs uses a 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch faceplate, the Adams Rite 7100 and 7160 use the same 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch size for aluminum jambs, and the Dortronics 3300 ships a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch.
11) I need latch monitoring or a door status output - does the ROFU 1403 provide that?
The ROFU 1403 is a reversible non-handed fail-secure strike without a monitoring output described. If the access control system needs latch status, the Dortronics 3300 includes a latch bolt sensing switch and runs 12/24 VDC, the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a Grade 1 dual monitor strike supplied with eight faceplates, and the Hager 2945 includes a latchbolt monitor.
12) Is there a Grade 1 heavy duty alternative to the ROFU 1403 for a high traffic door?
For heavy traffic openings, peers carrying a Grade 1 heavy duty designation include the Alarm Controls AES-100, the Locknetics MDS100 and MS100, the Von Duprin 4211 for cylindrical locks at 12/24 VDC field-selectable, and the Von Duprin 6210 for mortise locks at 24 VDC fail-secure. The ROFU 1403 remains a commercial fail-secure strike suited to hollow metal, aluminum or wood frames with up to 5/8 inch latch projection.
13) What electric strike works with a rim exit device or vertical rod instead of the ROFU 1403?
The ROFU 1403 is a frame-mounted strike sized for latch projections up to 5/8 inch, not for exit device hardware. For a rim exit device, 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 is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel. For surface vertical rods, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete strike pac.
14) Is there a no-cut or universal faceplate strike I should consider rather than cutting the jamb for the ROFU 1403?
The ROFU 1403 needs a jamb opening for its 1-1/4 inch x 6-7/8 inch anodized aluminum faceplate. If you want to avoid new frame cutting or cover more than one prep, the Locknetics NC450 is a no cut electric strike, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire rated low profile universal strike supplied with four faceplates, and the Camden CX-ED1410/ED1420 series are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes.
15) I have a pair of doors - can the ROFU 1403 handle a double door opening?
The ROFU 1403 is a frame-mounted fail-secure strike with a 1-1/4 inch x 6-7/8 inch faceplate intended for a single jamb prep. For a pair of doors, the Rockwood double door electric strike in the 310-1 series is built for that application with a 3/4 keeper and is Grade 1 fire rated.
16) What finishes does the ROFU 1403 electric strike come in?
Two: 628 clear anodized and 613 oil rubbed bronze. Clear anodized matches standard aluminum storefront, and 613 matches dark bronze anodized frames and bronze lever trim. Both finishes are available in all three voltages.
