Trine 323478FX-LC-32D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Trine 323478FX-LC electric strike fire rated?
Yes. The 323478FX-LC kit is a 3 hour fire rated, Grade 1 electric strike built around the 30LC fire rated mechanism. That makes it usable on a rated opening where the strike itself has to carry a fire label, and it is fail-secure, which is what a rated door normally requires since the latch must stay engaged on loss of power.
2) What kind of lock does this Trine 3000 Series strike work with?
It is made for cylindrical locksets and deadlatches, the kind of lever or knob lockset with a spring latch and deadlatch plunger that you find on most commercial openings. It is not a mortise lock strike. For mortise, look at something like the Von Duprin 6210 or the Securitron MUNL instead.
3) What comes in the Trine 323478 kit, or do I have to order faceplates separately?
The kit ships with everything needed to cover both common frame situations: one 234-234X adjustable faceplate, one 478-32D faceplate, the 30LC fire rated mechanism, and a 478-CCFP competitor filler plate. The filler plate matters on a replacement job, because it lets you cover an oversized cutout left behind by another manufacturer's strike instead of patching the frame.
4) Will the Trine 323478 electric strike work on 12 volt and 24 volt systems without ordering a specific coil?
One unit covers 12 to 24 volts, AC or DC, with surge and kickback protection built in, so the same strike drops onto a 12VDC access control panel or a 24VAC transformer. Current draw is 0.743 A inrush / 0.298 A holding at 12VDC and 0.397 / 0.170 A at 24VDC, with a 13.0 ohm coil, and it is rated for intermittent or continuous duty. Size your power supply off those figures.
5) Can I use this strike in an existing frame cutout that is slightly off, or do I have to re-cut the frame?
There is 1/8 inch of horizontal adjustment on both the 478 faceplates and the 234 faceplates, using Trine's patented adjustment feature that locks and will not drift once set. On a retrofit where the old prep or the latch line is a little out, that 1/8 inch is often the difference between setting the strike and cutting the frame. If the old cutout is too large rather than misaligned, the included 478-CCFP filler plate covers it.
6) Is the Adams Rite 7170 a substitute for the Trine 323478FX-LC?
Not on a fire rated opening. The Adams Rite 7170 is an electric strike for hollow metal and wood jambs with a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate, and it is not fire rated. The Trine 323478FX-LC is 3 hour fire rated. If the frame is aluminum rather than hollow metal or wood, the Adams Rite 7100 and 7160 cover aluminum jambs with the same 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate, also without a fire rating. For a fire rated Adams Rite cylindrical option, the 7240 is fire rated and takes a 5/8 inch latchbolt projection.
7) What is the closest fire rated alternative to the Trine 323478FX-LC for a cylindrical lock on a hollow metal frame?
The Trine 323478FX-LC is a fire rated, fail-secure electric strike for cylindrical locks running 12/24 VAC/DC. The closest equivalents by function are the Von Duprin 4211 32D, a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated electric strike for cylindrical locks with field-selectable 12/24 VDC, and the Hager 2930, a fire rated Grade 1 strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24VDC dual voltage. The Hager unit is field reversible between fail safe and fail secure, while the Trine kit is fail-secure.
8) I need an electric strike for a mortise lock, not a cylindrical one. What should I use instead of the Trine 323478FX-LC?
The Trine 323478FX-LC is built for cylindrical and deadlatch locks. For a mortise lock, look at the Von Duprin 6210, a Grade 1 heavy duty 24 VDC fail-secure strike with UL 10C fire rating, or the Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch, a Grade 1 fire rated strike. The Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 modular fail-secure strike with a 3-Hour UL 10C rating that handles either mortise or cylindrical locks.
9) I need latchbolt monitoring, which the Trine 323478FX-LC does not offer. What strike gives me that?
For a monitored opening, the Dortronics 3300 Series is an electric strike with a latch bolt sensing switch running 12/24VDC with a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch. The Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated Grade 1 dual monitor strike, and the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and a latchbolt monitor. Note the Hager 2945 is a rim exit device strike rather than a cylindrical lock strike like the Trine.
10) Does the strike stay locked if the power fails, and can I use it on a stair or exit door?
Fail-secure operation: cut power and the keeper stays locked, so the door remains secured and is still exited by turning the lever from the inside. That is the correct configuration for a rated fire door, since a fail-safe strike would unlock the opening during an alarm. If your application calls for the door to release on power loss, this is the wrong unit; a field reversible model such as the Hager 2930 gives you either mode.
11) Can I mount this Trine strike on a gate or an exterior door?
It is not outdoor rated, so keep it to interior commercial openings. Weather, wash-down, and gate applications need a strike built for it, such as the Camden CX-ED1959 outdoor rated gate strike. Construction on the Trine is all solid stainless, which helps in a damp vestibule, but that is not the same as an outdoor listing.
12) What other fire rated Grade 1 strikes could I use instead of the Trine 323478 on a cylindrical lockset?
Closest peers for a rated cylindrical opening are the Von Duprin 4211 (Grade 1, fire rated, heavy duty, 12/24 VDC field-selectable), the Hager 2930 (fire rated Grade 1 for cylindrical and mortise, 12/24VDC dual voltage), and the Adams Rite 7240, which is fire rated for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection. The Camden CX-ED1410/ED1420 universal Grade 1 ANSI fire rated line is another. Where the Trine differs is the kit format: two faceplate styles plus a competitor filler plate in the box, aimed at fitting frames that will not take a larger strike body.
13) Does this Trine strike monitor the latch or door position?
The 323478FX-LC kit is a release-only strike, 12-24 AC/DC with surge and kickback protection, and no monitoring output. If your access control needs a latchbolt or door status signal back at the panel, specify a strike with a built-in switch instead, for example the Dortronics 3300 Series with a latch bolt sensing switch, the Hager 2945 with latchbolt monitor, or the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 dual monitor unit.
14) The Trine 323478FX-LC kit ships with two faceplates. What if I need more faceplate options for an unknown frame prep?
The Trine 323478FX-LC kit includes a 234-234X adjustable faceplate and a 478-32D faceplate plus a competitor filler plate, with 1/8 inch horizontal adjustment on both. If you need a wider spread of prep coverage in one box, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire rated universal low profile strike shipped with four faceplates, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated Grade 1 dual monitor strike shipped with eight faceplates.
15) Is there a simpler, non-kit electric strike than the Trine 323478FX-LC for a straightforward 5/8 inch latchbolt?
Yes. The Trine 323478FX-LC is a multi-faceplate fire rated kit. If the frame prep is known and the opening is not rated, the SDC 15 Series is a value 5/8 inch latchbolt strike with 12/24 VDC operation, and the SDC 25 Series is a value strike for a 1/2 inch latchbolt. The RCI 15BS is an economy fail-secure strike for a special offset latch entry and is not fire rated. If the opening is rated, the SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with a radius corner faceplate.
16) What should I use instead of the Trine 323478FX-LC on a pair of doors or with surface vertical rods?
The Trine 323478FX-LC is a cylindrical and deadlatch strike. For a pair, the Rockwood double door electric strike is a Grade 1 fire rated 310-1 Series unit with a 3/4 keeper. For surface vertical rod hardware, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac, though it is not fire rated. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body is Grade 1 and fire rated and accepts 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts.
17) Which Grade 1 heavy duty electric strikes compare to the Trine 323478FX-LC?
The Trine 323478FX-LC is Grade 1 with all solid stainless construction and 3 hour fire rating. Comparable Grade 1 heavy duty units include the Alarm Controls AES-100, the Locknetics MDS100 US32D and MS100 US32D heavy duty strikes, and the Von Duprin 4211 32D, which is Grade 1 heavy duty and fire rated for cylindrical locks. The Locknetics units are cataloged as heavy duty rather than fire rated, so confirm the rating requirement for your opening.
18) I want to avoid cutting the frame. Is the Trine 323478FX-LC or a no-cut strike the better fit?
The Trine 323478FX-LC kit is built around minimizing frame work, with a 234-234X adjustable faceplate, a 478-32D faceplate, a competitor filler plate for covering an existing cutout, and 1/8 inch horizontal adjustment on both faceplate styles. If you want a purpose-built no-cut unit instead, the Locknetics NC450 US32D is a no cut electric strike. The Trine kit carries a 3 hour fire rating, which is the deciding factor on a rated opening.
19) Are the HES 1500 and 1600 accessories an alternative to the Trine 323478FX-LC?
No. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 items are accessories for those Grade 1 fire rated strike series, not complete strikes. The Trine 323478FX-LC is a complete fire rated kit that includes the 30LC fire rated mechanism, a 234-234X adjustable faceplate, a 478-32D faceplate and a competitor filler plate. If you want a complete fire rated strike from another line, the Von Duprin 4211 32D or the Hager 2930 are complete units.
20) What finishes does the Trine 323478FX-LC come in?
Two: 630 satin stainless steel and DKBZ dark bronze powder coat. The 630 satin stainless matches the 32D/US26D lever trim on most commercial openings; the dark bronze is there when the frames and hardware in the building are dark finish and you do not want a bright plate showing in the jamb.
21) Is the Trine 323478 strike noisy when it releases? I have it going on an office suite door.
Silent operation at every voltage, 12 or 24, AC or DC. There is no buzz on hold, which is what you want on a suite entry, a library, or a patient corridor where an AC buzz would be a complaint. If you specifically want the audible buzz as a cue that the door has released, this unit will not give you one.
22) Does the Trine 323478FX-LC come in a dark finish, or do I need a different brand for bronze?
The Trine 323478FX-LC is offered in 630 satin stainless steel and in DKBZ dark bronze powder coated, so a bronze frame does not require switching brands. Among comparable strikes, the Von Duprin 6400 32D and 4211 32D and the Locknetics CS450-32D, MDS100 US32D and MS100 US32D are cataloged in satin stainless.
