Trine 2678-16-24AC/DC-US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Trine 2678 electric strike fit an aluminum storefront jamb?
Yes. The Trine 2678 is built for aluminum or hollow metal jamb installations, new or replacement. The faceplate is 6-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches, mortise backset 1-9/16 inches, with a cavity 9/16 inch deep, 5/8 inch wide and 1-11/16 inches high. Check those cavity numbers against the jamb tube you are cutting into before you commit.
2) Does the Trine 2678 strike stay locked if the power goes out?
It does. The 2678 is fail-secure, so the keeper stays locked with no power and the door still opens from the inside by the lever or panic hardware. If you need the opposite behavior, Trine offers an RS fail-safe option on DC only, ordered by adding RS to the model number.
3) What latchbolt throw will the Trine 2678 accept?
Up to 5/8 inch throw, figured on a 1/8 inch door gap. It also has 1/8 inch horizontal latch adjustment, which is what lets it take wider latch bolts and cope with doors or locksets that sit out of alignment.
4) Can I use the Trine 2678 with a lockset that has a deadlocking latch?
Yes, that is what the auxiliary lever ramp is for. The 3-3/8 inch ramp depresses the deadlocking plunger as the door closes, so the latch deadlocks properly against the keeper. It is also the piece that makes the 2678 useful when converting an MS lock over to a dead latch.
5) Which voltage should I order for the Trine 2678, and will it buzz?
Four voltage builds are offered: 6-14VAC/DC, 12VDC, 16-24VAC/DC and 24VDC. Run it on DC and it is silent and rated continuous duty. Run it on AC and you get the buzz, and it is intermittent duty only, so AC suits a buzz-in entry rather than a strike held released for long periods. Current draw is 0.20 to 0.33A at 12VDC and 0.11 to 0.47A at 24VDC.
6) What electric strike should I use instead of the Trine 2678 on a fire-rated opening?
The Trine 2678 is not fire rated, so on a labeled opening choose a strike that is. The Von Duprin 6400 carries a 3-hour UL 10C fire rating in its fail-secure configuration, is Grade 1, and serves mortise or cylindrical locks like the 2678 does. The Hager 2930 is a fire-rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage, and the Camden CX-ED1410/CX-ED1420 universal strikes are Grade 1 ANSI fire rated. The Von Duprin 6210 is fire rated and fail-secure but is built for mortise locks specifically.
7) My jamb is prepped for a 4-7/8 inch ANSI faceplate - what works there instead of the Trine 2678?
The Trine 2678 uses a 6-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch faceplate, so it will not drop into a 4-7/8 inch cutout. For that prep, the Dortronics 3300 series uses a 4-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch strike plate for ANSI prep, and the Adams Rite 7100, 7160 and 7170 all use a 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch faceplate - the 7100 and 7160 for aluminum jambs, the 7170 for hollow metal and wood jambs.
8) I need fail-safe operation instead of fail-secure - what are my options besides the Trine 2678?
The Trine 2678 is a fail-secure strike, with an RS fail-safe option available on DC models only. If you want a strike whose mode can be flipped in the field, the Hager 2925 and Hager 2928 both offer field reversible fail safe/secure operation, and the Hager 2925 takes a 5/8 inch latch, matching the 5/8 inch throw the 2678 handles. The Hager 2945 is field selectable as well but is a rim exit strike rather than a jamb-mounted unit.
9) Can the Trine 2678 be used on an exterior gate?
No - the Trine 2678 is not outdoor rated and is intended for aluminum or hollow metal jamb installations. For a gate or exposed exterior application, the Camden CX-ED1959 series is specifically an outdoor rated electric gate strike.
10) Is there a heavier-duty alternative to the Trine 2678 for a high-traffic entrance?
The Trine 2678 is a light commercial strike rated at 500,000 life cycles with 900 lbs holding force. If you want a heavy duty or Grade 1 unit, the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike, the Von Duprin 4211 is Grade 1 heavy duty for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable voltage, and the Locknetics MDS100 and MS100 are both heavy duty strikes. The Securitron MUNL is a Grade 1 mortise strike.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Trine 2678 but will not work in the same opening?
Several strikes in the same family solve different doors. The Trine 2678 is a jamb-mounted strike for mortise or cylindrical locks in aluminum or hollow metal frames. The SDC 30-4 is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt, and the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete pac for surface vertical rods - neither replaces a jamb strike behind a lockset latch. The RCI 15BS is built for a special offset latch entry. And the HES 1500 and 1600 items are strike accessories rather than complete strike bodies.
12) Do I need to specify handing on the Trine 2678 electric strike?
No. The 2678 is non-handed, so one part covers left and right hand openings. Wiring is by screw terminals for a quick connection, which saves splicing in the jamb.
13) How long will a Trine 2678 strike last on a busy entry door, and how much force will it hold?
The 2000 Series is rated 500,000 life cycles with 900 lbs holding force, and the latch is solid cast and chrome plated. It also releases under slight door pre-load, which matters on an entry where wind or a closer keeps pressure on the latch. It is classed as light commercial, so for a high-abuse main entrance a heavy duty Grade 1 strike like the Von Duprin 4211 or the Alarm Controls AES-100 is the tougher choice.
14) What finishes does the Trine 2678 come in, and will it match my other storefront doors?
Two finishes: satin aluminum (BHMA 628, catalogued as US28) and satin bronze (BHMA 639, US10B). Satin aluminum is the usual match for clear anodized aluminum storefront; satin bronze pairs with dark bronze anodized frames. Both finishes are available in every voltage offered.
15) Will the Trine 2678 work with a mortise lock, or only a cylindrical lockset?
Either one. The 2678 is listed for mortise or cylindrical lock types, so long as the latch throw is 5/8 inch or less and the keeper cavity suits the bolt. For a mortise lock with an anti-friction latch on a fire door, the Securitron MUNL or Von Duprin 6210 are mortise-specific alternatives.
16) Can I mount the Trine 2678 on an exterior gate or a door exposed to weather?
No. The 2678 is not outdoor rated and should stay on protected interior or vestibule openings. For a gate or weather-exposed install, the Camden CX-ED1959 Series is built as an outdoor rated gate strike.
17) I need latch monitoring on the door - does the Trine 2678 do that, and if not what does?
The Trine 2678 is a strike with screw terminals for the release circuit and no monitoring output described. If the access control system needs latch status, the Dortronics 3300 series includes a latch bolt sensing switch with 12/24VDC operation, the Hager 2945 is a fire-rated rim exit strike with a latchbolt monitor, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a Grade 1 dual monitor strike supplied with eight faceplates.
18) Is there a simpler strike than the Trine 2678 for a 5/8 inch latchbolt on a light commercial door?
The Trine 2678 handles up to a 5/8 inch throw based on a 1/8 inch door gap and adds a 3-3/8 inch auxiliary ramp for deadlocking levers. If you do not need the ramp or the 1/8 inch horizontal latch adjustment, the SDC 15 series is a value strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with 12/24 VDC operation, and the SDC 25 series covers a 1/2 inch latchbolt. The SDC 45F is the fire-rated 5/8 inch latchbolt option with a radius corner faceplate.
19) The Trine 2678 requires cutting the jamb - is there an option that avoids that?
The Trine 2678 mortises into the frame with a 1-9/16 inch backset and a 9/16 inch deep by 5/8 inch wide by 1-11/16 inch high cavity. If you would rather not cut, the Locknetics NC450 is a no cut electric strike. Where the existing prep is an unknown, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire-rated low profile universal strike supplied with four faceplates to cover several cutouts.
20) What should I use on a pair of doors instead of the Trine 2678?
The Trine 2678 is a single jamb-mounted strike for aluminum or hollow metal frames. For a double door application, the Rockwood electric strike in the 310-1 series is built for double doors with a 3/4 keeper and is Grade 1 and fire rated. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body accepts 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts and is Grade 1 and fire rated.
