Trine 1001-2C-16-24AC/DC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Trine 1001-2 electric strike work with my existing lockset's latchbolt?
The 1001-2 works with locksets having up to a 5/8 inch throw, based on a 1/8 inch door gap. It accepts either mortise or cylindrical locks. If your latch throws more than 5/8 inch, or your door gap is wider than 1/8 inch so the latch sits deeper in the keeper, you need a strike with a deeper cavity. The latch cavity is 9/16 inch deep by 9/16 inch wide by 1-11/16 inch tall, and the mortise backset is 1-1/2 inches, so the jamb has to be cut deep enough to take that body behind the faceplate.
2) What happens to the Trine 1001-2 strike when the power goes out?
Fail-secure. The 1001-2 keeps the door locked when power drops, so people can still exit from the inside using the lockset's own latch, but nobody gets in from the outside without a key. That is the normal choice for an exterior or tenant entry door. If your building's fire plan or egress design calls for the opening to unlock on power loss, you want a fail-safe strike instead. Some peers we carry are field selectable either way, like the Hager 2925 and 2928, which switch between fail safe and fail secure in the field.
3) Which voltage should I order for a Trine 1001-2, and how much current does it draw?
Two coils are offered: 6-14VAC/DC and 16-24VAC/DC. Match it to the power supply already feeding the opening. On the low coil the resistance is 8 ohms, drawing 0.750 to 1.200 amps at 6-12VDC and 0.495 to 1.500 amps at 6-12VAC. On the high coil it is 50 ohms, 0.380 to 0.610 amps at 14-24VDC and 0.270 to 0.480 amps at 14-24VAC. Size the supply off those numbers, especially if it is running several strikes. Both are intermittent duty, so do not hold them energized continuously. Run it on DC if you want a silent release; AC gives the traditional buzz, which some tenants want as an audible cue at a lobby door.
4) I am replacing an old buzzer strike in a wood jamb. Will the Trine 1001-2 drop into the existing cut?
The 1001-2 is made for both new and replacement work in wood and metal jambs, but whether it drops in depends on your existing prep. Measure three things against it: the faceplate is 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches in the narrow style, the mortise backset is 1-1/2 inches, and the cavity is 9/16 deep by 9/16 wide by 1-11/16 tall. If the old strike used a wider ANSI faceplate cutout, the narrow plate will not cover the hole and you will be filling jamb. If the old cut is smaller, a wood jamb chisels out easily and a metal jamb does not.
5) My latch has a 3/4 inch throw. What electric strike do I need instead of the Trine 1001-2?
The 1001-2 tops out at a 5/8 inch throw latch on a 1/8 inch door gap, so a 3/4 inch throw is past it. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body handles 1/2, 5/8 or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts and is Grade 1 and fire rated. The SDC 30-4 takes a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt but is rim mount, so check which style your device uses before ordering.
6) What is a fire-rated alternative to the Trine 1001-2 electric strike?
The Trine 1001-2 is not fire rated, so on a labeled opening you need a strike carrying a fire rating. The Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 modular electric strike for mortise or cylindrical locks with a 3-hour UL 10C rating in fail-secure, in satin stainless steel. The Hager 2930 is a fire-rated Grade 1 electric strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage. The SDC 45F is a fire-rated electric strike for 5/8 inch latchbolts with a radius corner faceplate, which matches the same 5/8 inch throw the 1001-2 accepts.
7) Will the Trine 1001-2 work in an aluminum storefront jamb, or do I need a different strike?
The Trine 1001-2 is built for new or replacement work in wood and metal jambs, with a 5-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch narrow faceplate and a 1-1/2 inch mortise backset. For an aluminum storefront jamb, the Adams Rite 7100 Series uses a flat 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate sized for aluminum jambs, and the Adams Rite 7160 is also an aluminum jamb strike with a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate. If the jamb is hollow metal or wood, the Adams Rite 7170 covers that prep with the same 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate.
8) I need the strike to unlock on power loss instead of staying locked - what do I use instead of the Trine 1001-2?
The Trine 1001-2 is fail-secure only, so it stays locked when power drops. For an opening that has to release on power loss, or where you want to decide in the field, the Hager 2925 has field reversible fail safe/fail secure operation and takes a 5/8 inch latch, the same latch throw the 1001-2 is built around. The Hager 2928 also offers field reversible fail safe/secure operation, and the Hager 2945 is a rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure plus a latchbolt monitor.
9) The Trine 1001-2 is light commercial - what is the heavy duty equivalent for a high traffic door?
The Trine 1001-2 is a light commercial strike for mortise or cylindrical locks. Where the opening calls for heavy duty, the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electric strike, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike for cylindrical locks with 12/24VDC field-selectable voltage, and the Locknetics MDS100 US32D and MS100 US32D are both heavy duty strikes. Confirm the jamb prep before you switch, since faceplate and cavity dimensions differ between these families.
10) What can I use instead of the Trine 1001-2 if I do not want to cut the jamb?
The Trine 1001-2 mortises into the jamb at a 1-1/2 inch backset with a 9/16 inch deep by 9/16 inch wide by 1-11/16 inch tall cavity, so the frame has to be prepped. If cutting is the problem, the Locknetics NC450 US32D is a no cut electric strike. Where an existing ANSI prep is already in the frame, the Dortronics 3300 Series comes with a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch and includes a latch bolt sensing switch on 12/24VDC.
11) Which electric strikes accept the same 5/8 inch latchbolt throw as the Trine 1001-2?
The Trine 1001-2 is rated for locksets with up to a 5/8 inch throw based on a 1/8 inch door gap. Peers built around the same 5/8 inch latch include the SDC 15 Series with 12/24 VDC operation, the SDC 45F with a radius corner faceplate, the Hager 2925 with field reversible fail safe/secure operation, and the Adams Rite 7240, a fire-rated strike for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body covers 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts.
12) Can the Trine 1001-2 go on an exterior gate, and what should I use if not?
The Trine 1001-2 is not outdoor rated, so it belongs on interior openings. For a gate or an exposed exterior application, the Camden CX-ED1959 Series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike. Like the 1001-2, the CX-ED1959 is not fire rated, so it is a weather answer and not a labeled-door answer.
13) Is the Trine 1001-2 a Grade 1 strike, and which comparable strikes carry that grade?
The Trine 1001-2 is a light commercial fail-secure strike rated at 500,000 life cycles with 1000 lbs holding force, and it releases under slight door pre-load. Where a specification calls out ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, the Alarm Controls AES-100, HES Folger Adam 310-1(X), Von Duprin 4211 32D, Von Duprin 6210, Von Duprin 6400 32D, Securitron MUNL, and the Rockwood double door strike are all listed as Grade 1.
14) Do I have to order the Trine 1001-2 handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 1000 Series is non-handed, so one part covers both swings. What you do have to pick on the order is finish and voltage: Brass Powder Coated or Satin Chrome (BHMA 652), and either the 6-14VAC/DC or the 16-24VAC/DC coil.
15) Will a Trine 1001-2 hold up on a high traffic apartment or office entry?
It is a light commercial strike, rated at 500,000 life cycles with 1,000 lbs holding force, and it releases under slight door pre-load, which matters on a door that gets pushed on or that a closer holds tight against the stop. That covers a tenant entry, an office suite door, or a storeroom. For a main entrance getting constant abuse, step up to a heavy duty Grade 1 body such as the Alarm Controls AES-100, the Locknetics MS100 or MDS100, or the Von Duprin 6400.
16) What is the difference between the Trine 1001-2 narrow faceplate strike and an ANSI prep strike?
Faceplate size is the whole difference in where they go. The 1001-2 uses a 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch narrow style plate, which suits a jamb already cut for a narrow strike or a fresh cut in a wood or metal frame. A standard ANSI prep is 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches, and the Dortronics 3300 Series ships with a strike plate for that ANSI prep. Look at the frame before ordering; putting the wrong plate length on an existing cut means either an uncovered gap or new metalwork.
17) Can I wire the Trine 1001-2 to an access control panel or intercom without a special connector?
Wiring lands on screw terminals on the strike body, so it takes field wire straight from an intercom, keypad, or access panel with no proprietary connector or pigtail splice. Pick the coil to match the panel output: 6-14VAC/DC or 16-24VAC/DC. Remember it is intermittent duty, so it is meant for momentary release on a door strike relay, not a continuously energized output.
18) Does the Trine 1001-2 tell the access control system whether the door latched?
No monitoring on this one. The 1001-2 is a straight release strike with screw terminals for the release circuit only, so there is no latchbolt or strike monitor output back to the panel. If your system needs door or latch status, look at the Dortronics 3300 Series with a latch bolt sensing switch, the Hager 2945 rim exit strike with latchbolt monitor, or the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 dual monitor Grade 1 strike.
19) Can I use an electric strike like the Trine 1001-2 on a pair of doors with vertical rod exit devices?
No. The 1001-2 mortises into the jamb and catches a lockset latchbolt of up to 5/8 inch throw, so it needs a latch coming out of the door edge into the frame. Surface vertical rod devices latch at the head and threshold, not the jamb, so a jamb-mounted strike has nothing to hold. For that opening ZenSupply carries the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 complete strike pac for surface vertical rods, and the Rockwood double door strike with a 3/4 keeper.
20) Which strike do I use on a pair of doors instead of the Trine 1001-2?
The Trine 1001-2 is a single narrow faceplate strike for a lockset in a wood or metal jamb, which is a single-door answer. For a pair, the Rockwood electric strike for double doors uses a 3/4 keeper and is a fire rated Grade 1 unit in the 310-1 Series.
21) Is the RCI 15BS a drop-in substitute for the Trine 1001-2?
They are both fail-secure and neither is fire rated, but they are cut for different latches. The Trine 1001-2 takes standard mortise or cylindrical locksets with up to a 5/8 inch throw in a 1-1/2 inch mortise backset. The RCI 15BS is an economy fail-secure strike for special offset latch entry, so it suits an offset latch rather than a standard lockset latch. Check what latch is in the door before treating one as a swap for the other.
22) What is the difference between the Trine 1001-2 and a mortise-specific strike like the Securitron MUNL or Von Duprin 6210?
The Trine 1001-2 accepts either a mortise or a cylindrical lockset with up to a 5/8 inch throw and is not fire rated. The Securitron MUNL is a mortise UnLatch strike, fire rated and Grade 1. The Von Duprin 6210 is a heavy duty Grade 1 strike for mortise locks, 24 VDC fail-secure, UL 10C fire rated. If the door is mortise only and carries a label, those two address it directly.
23) The lock in my door has a 1/2 inch latch - is the Trine 1001-2 still the right strike?
The Trine 1001-2 is rated for locksets with up to a 5/8 inch throw based on a 1/8 inch door gap, so a shorter latch falls inside that range but engages less of the 1-11/16 inch tall cavity. If you would rather match the latch exactly, the SDC 25 Series is a value strike built for 1/2 inch latchbolt compatibility, and the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body covers 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch throws in one part.
24) I run 12VDC and 24VDC in the same building - which strikes match the Trine 1001-2 on voltage flexibility?
The Trine 1001-2 ships in two voltage builds, 6-14VAC/DC and 16-24VAC/DC, so the voltage is chosen at order time rather than in the field, and DC operation is silent while AC buzzes. If you want one part number that covers both rails, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is 12/24 VDC field-selectable, the Hager 2930 is 12/24VDC dual voltage, the SDC 15 Series runs 12/24 VDC, and the Dortronics 3300 Series is 12/24VDC.
25) Are the HES 1500 and 1600 parts an alternative to the Trine 1001-2?
They are not a substitute. The Trine 1001-2 is a complete electric strike for wood and metal jambs with a 5-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch narrow steel faceplate. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 items are electric strike accessories for those Grade 1 fire rated series, meaning components for an existing strike rather than a strike you install on its own. If you want a complete unit in a fire rated Grade 1 family, look at the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body or the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 complete strike pac.
26) Will the Trine 1001-2 match the chrome hardware already on my other doors?
Satin chrome is one of the two finishes, ordered as the 1001-2C and equivalent to BHMA 652, which is the common satin finish on commercial lock trim and hinges. The other option is a brass powder coat. Only the faceplate shows once the strike is mortised in, so it is the plate finish you are matching to the rest of the jamb hardware.
