Trimco TRI-1559WB.626 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Trimco 1559 roller latch hold a closet or corridor door closed without a knob or lever to turn?
That is exactly what a roller latch is for. The Trimco 1559 rides a spring-loaded nylon roller into a strike on the frame, so the door is held shut by roller tension and pulls open with a straight push or pull, no turning, twisting, or grasping. That is why it carries ADA compliance and why it turns up on hotel room closets, assisted living rooms, and multifamily corridor doors where nobody wants a knob to operate. What it does not do is lock. There is no bolt and no keying, so if the opening needs to secure anything, the roller latch is the wrong device and you want a latchset or lockset instead.
2) Which strike do I order with the Trimco 1559 roller latch, A, B or C?
Pick the strike by what the frame already has. A is the cast strike, the standard surface-applied face plate. B is the T-strike, the narrow tee shape used where the frame lip does not give you room for a full face plate. C is the ASA strike, which is the ANSI-format strike, so it drops into a frame that is already prepped for a standard 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike cutout, the usual choice when you are retrofitting an existing hollow metal frame. Every 1559 order pairs one finish with one of those three, so decide the strike before you order rather than after the door is hung. Trimco publishes a separate template for each, 1559A, 1559B and 1559C, and the prep is not the same between them.
3) Can you adjust how hard a Trimco 1559 roller latch pushes back, or is the tension fixed?
The nylon roller on the 1559 is adjustable, and you set it at the door rather than at the counter. Back it off where residents or patients need a light pull, run it tighter on a door that keeps drifting open, and no tools are needed to change it. That matters on a fleet of openings that are not all hung the same way, because one part number covers the light closet door and the corridor door that gets slammed all day. It is also the fix when a door starts popping open six months in, adjust the roller instead of pulling the latch.
4) Can I use a Trimco 1559 roller latch on a labeled fire door?
No. A roller latch holds a door with spring pressure on a roller, which is not positive latching, and a labeled fire door assembly has to positively latch to keep the leaf in the frame under fire conditions. Use a fire-rated latchset, mortise lock, or fire exit device on those openings. The 1559 belongs on the non-rated doors, closets, corridor and passage leaves, office doors that just need to stay shut.
5) Can I get the Trimco 1559 in a finish that matches the rest of the hardware in my building?
Seven finishes are made across the 1559 line: Bright Brass 605, Satin Brass 606, Oil Rubbed Bronze 613, Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze 613E, Matte Black 622, Bright Chrome 625, and Satin Chrome 626. All seven are offered with each of the three strikes, so choosing the T-strike or the ASA strike does not cut your finish options down. For a property standardizing on 626 satin chrome or 613 oil rubbed bronze across levers, hinges and stops, the roller latch drops straight into that schedule.
6) Roller latch or ball catch, which one should I put on a commercial door?
A ball catch mortises into the top edge of the door and engages a strike in the head of the frame, which is fine on a light residential or closet door but gives you nothing to adjust and puts the hold at the top corner. The Trimco 1559 roller latch mortises into the lock edge and engages a strike on the jamb, the same place a latchbolt would sit, so it holds where the door is actually pulled and it is set up for constant daily use. On a commercial opening seeing high cycles, hotel closets, assisted living rooms, corridor doors, the roller latch is the one built for the traffic, and the adjustable roller lets you retune it later rather than swap it.
7) What is the difference between a Trimco 1559A, 1559B and 1559C?
Same 1559 heavy duty roller latch in all three; the letter is the strike. 1559A is the cast strike, 1559B is the T-strike, 1559C is the ASA strike. The latch body and the adjustable nylon roller do not change between them, only what mounts on the frame side and the frame prep it needs. Order by the letter that matches your jamb condition, and note that the finish is specified separately, so a 1559C in 626 satin chrome and a 1559A in 626 are the same finish with different frame hardware.
8) I am replacing roller latches in a hotel or senior living facility. Is one part number enough for the whole building?
For most of it, yes. The 1559 is built for high-cycle commercial use and the roller is field adjustable, so the same latch and finish serves the light closet door and the corridor door that gets hit hundreds of times a day, dialed to different tension. The one thing that will split your order is the frame side: doors sitting in an ANSI-prepped hollow metal frame take the C ASA strike, doors with a narrow frame lip take the B T-strike, and everything else takes the A cast strike. Walk the openings and count strikes, not latches. Note that any labeled fire door in the building needs a positive-latching device instead.
9) What is the Trimco 1559 roller latch actually made of, and will it hold up in a coastal or high humidity building?
Brass and bronze, not plated pot metal. That is the reason it is specified in hospitality and assisted living where doors get wiped down constantly and in coastal or humid buildings where a steel latch face starts to bloom. The wear part is a nylon roller, which does not gall against the strike the way a metal-on-metal catch does. Finishes like 613 oil rubbed bronze and 613E dark oxidized satin bronze are living finishes on that bronze substrate and will develop a patina with handling.
