Trine 323478LC-32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Trine 323478LC a Grade 1 electric strike?
Grade 1, and it is built to BHMA A156.31, 2001. Trine's grading within the 3000 Series splits by model: the 3458 and 3478 are Grade 1, and the 3234, 3234W and 3258 are Grade 2. For an institutional spec calling out Grade 1 cylindrical strike hardware, this kit answers it. Alarm Controls AES-100, HES 310-1(X), and the Von Duprin 6400 are other Grade 1 strikes if the spec also demands a fire label, which this one does not carry.
2) Will the Trine 323478LC work with a cylindrical lockset?
Yes, the 323478LC is built for cylindrical locks. That is the whole point of the LC kit: the 234 and 234X faceplates handle the tight installs a cylindrical latch puts you in, and the 478 covers the wider prep. If the opening has a mortise lock instead, this is not the kit to buy.
3) Is the Trine 323478LC fail-safe or fail-secure?
Fail-secure. Cut the power and the strike stays locked, so the door remains secured on a power loss and you still get out from the inside on the lock's own latch retraction. If the opening needs to unlock on power failure (a stair door on a fire alarm release, for example), a fail-secure strike is the wrong choice. Hager's 2925 and 2928 are field reversible fail safe/fail secure if you need to be able to pick either behaviour on site.
4) What voltage does the Trine 323478LC electric strike run on, and can I put it on my existing 24VDC access control power supply?
It runs 12 or 24 volts, AC or DC, off a 13.0 ohm coil. At 24VDC it draws 0.397 amps intermittent and 0.170 amps continuous; at 12VDC, 0.743 amps intermittent and 0.298 continuous. AC figures are similar (0.715/0.277 at 12AC, 0.378/0.173 at 24AC). Continuous duty is fine on any of the four, so it can sit energized on a maglock-style setup. Size your supply off the continuous number if the strike will be held open for long periods. Wire lead is red.
5) Can I mount a Trine 323478LC in a wood frame, or is it metal jamb only?
Both. Trine publishes separate frame prep sheets for metal and wood jambs for the 234 faceplate and for the 478 faceplate, so either substrate is a supported install. Cut the prep from the sheet that matches your faceplate choice and your frame material, since the 234 and 478 preps are not the same cut.
6) The spec calls for a fire-rated Grade 1 cylindrical strike on a labeled opening. What replaces the Trine 323478LC there?
The Trine 323478LC is Grade 1 with 500,000 plus life cycles but is not fire rated, so a labeled opening needs a different body. The Von Duprin 4211 32D is Grade 1, heavy duty and fire rated for cylindrical locks with field-selectable 12/24 VDC. The Camden CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 modular fail-secure strike carrying a 3-hour UL 10C rating for mortise or cylindrical locks - useful when one part number has to satisfy both lock types on a labeled schedule.
7) Is the Trine 323478LC suitable for an exterior gate, and what should I specify instead?
The Trine 323478LC is a commercial interior-duty kit and is not outdoor rated. For a gate or other weather-exposed opening, the Camden CX-ED1959 Series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike. Keep the 323478LC for the protected openings where its 234 and 478 ANSI preps apply.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Trine 323478LC electric strike kit if I need a Grade 1 strike for a cylindrical lock that is also fire rated?
The Trine 323478LC is a Grade 1 electric strike kit built around the 30LC mechanism with 234-26D, 234X and 478-32D faceplates, and it is not fire rated. If the opening requires a fire label, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated electric strike for cylindrical locks with field-selectable 12/24 VDC, and the Hager 2930 is a fire rated Grade 1 electric strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24 VDC dual voltage. Both cover the cylindrical latch the 323478LC serves while carrying the fire rating it does not.
9) The Trine 323478LC is fail-secure only. What electric strike should I use if I need fail-safe on the same door?
The Trine 323478LC 3000 Series kit is a fail-secure strike, so it stays locked when power drops. For an opening that has to release on power loss, the Hager 2925 and Hager 2928 are both field reversible fail safe/fail secure electric strikes, and the Hager 2925 uses a 5/8 inch latch. If the door is a rim exit device rather than a cylindrical lock, the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and a latchbolt monitor.
10) I need an electric strike for an aluminum storefront jamb. Will the Trine 323478LC work, or is there a better fit?
The Trine 323478LC is an ANSI kit for cylindrical locks, supplied with the 234-26D, 234X and 478-32D faceplates and the 30LC mechanism, and the frame preps published for it are metal and wood frame preps for the 234 and 478 faceplates. For a narrow aluminum jamb, the Adams Rite 7100 Series is an electric strike for aluminum jambs with a flat 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate, and the Adams Rite 7160 is an electric strike for aluminum jambs with the same 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate. Adams Rite also builds the 7170 for hollow metal and wood jambs with that faceplate size if the frame changes mid-project.
11) I need latch monitoring on the strike. The Trine 323478LC does not have it - what does?
The Trine 323478LC 3000 Series kit is a silent fail-secure strike running 12 or 24 VAC/VDC with a solid stainless steel latch and locking mechanism, and its published electrical table lists only the coil circuit. If the access control head end needs to see the latch, the Dortronics 3300 Series is an electric strike with a latch bolt sensing switch on 12/24VDC and a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch, the Hager 2945 adds a latchbolt monitor on a fire rated rim exit strike, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a dual monitor Grade 1 strike.
12) The lock on my door is a mortise lock, not a cylindrical one. Can I use the Trine 323478LC?
The Trine 323478LC is set up for cylindrical locks - the 30LC mechanism with the 234 and 478 faceplates is the ANSI answer for cylindrical latches and tight installs. For a mortise lockset, the Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch is a Grade 1 fire rated strike, the Von Duprin 6210 is a heavy duty Grade 1 strike for mortise locks with 24 VDC fail-secure operation and UL 10C fire rating, and the Von Duprin 6400 32D is a Grade 1 modular strike that handles mortise or cylindrical locks in fail-secure with a 3-hour UL 10C rating.
13) The door has surface vertical rods or is a pair of doors. Does the Trine 323478LC cover that?
The Trine 323478LC is built for cylindrical latches, with the 30LC mechanism behind the 234 and 478 ANSI faceplates. For surface vertical rod hardware, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete electric strike pac for surface vertical rods, Grade 1. For a pair of doors, the Rockwood electric strike for double doors uses a 3/4 inch keeper and is a Grade 1 fire rated 310-1 Series unit. The SDC 30-4 Series is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel.
14) Is the Trine 323478LC strike quiet enough for an office or a hospital corridor?
Silent operation on all four voltage configurations, 12 and 24, AC and DC. No buzz on AC, which is the usual complaint with an AC strike in a quiet space. That makes it workable for suites, patient corridors, and libraries where a buzzing strike would draw complaints.
15) How many cycles is the Trine 3000 Series strike good for on a high traffic entrance?
Rated at over 500,000 life cycles, with a solid stainless steel latch and locking mechanism. That is the endurance class you want on a main entry, an amenity door, or a tenant lobby that gets hit hundreds of times a day, rather than a low-use back office door.
16) What finishes does the Trine 323478LC kit come in?
Three: 630 satin stainless steel, dark bronze powder coated (DKBZ), and aluminum powder coat. Satin stainless is the one that matches most commercial lever trim and 32D hardware already on a building's openings; the two powder coats are there to blend into storefront and aluminum jambs that are anodized dark bronze or clear. Note the kit's supplied faceplates are a 234-26D and a 478-32D.
17) Why buy a multi-faceplate electric strike kit instead of a single strike?
Because you often do not know the exact frame condition until the door is open. The 323478LC bundles the 30LC mechanism with three faceplates (234-26D, 234X, 478-32D), including what Trine calls the smallest electric strike faceplate in the world, so one part number covers an ANSI prep and a tight cylindrical install alike. That matters for a locksmith on service calls or a property manager standardizing across a mixed building. Camden takes the same approach on its universal kits, with four faceplates on the CX-ED1689L-4 and eight on the CX-ED1799L-8, both fire rated.
18) I have a Trine 3234 or 3478 strike in the frame already. Can I use the 323478LC to replace it?
The 323478LC is the 3000 Series kit that carries both the 234 and 478 faceplate options, which is exactly what covers a frame already cut for either one. Trine publishes a 3234/3478 cutting comparison sheet and separate dimension sheets for the 234 and the 478, so check your existing cut against those before you pull the old unit. Where the prep matches, you reuse the frame and swap the mechanism.
19) Which electric strikes besides the Trine 323478LC ship with multiple faceplates so one part number covers several frame preps?
The Trine 323478LC kit ships with a 234-26D faceplate, a 234X faceplate and a 478-32D faceplate over the 30LC mechanism, which is what makes it a universal ANSI kit. If you want more prep coverage in a single box, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire rated universal low profile strike supplied with four faceplates, and the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated dual monitor Grade 1 strike supplied with eight faceplates. Camden also builds the CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes.
20) I do not need the multi-faceplate kit. What is a simpler fail-secure electric strike than the Trine 323478LC?
The Trine 323478LC bundles three faceplates - 234-26D, 234X and 478-32D - with the 30LC mechanism so one part number covers several ANSI preps. If the prep is already known and you only need one strike for one opening, the SDC 15 Series is a value strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt on 12/24 VDC, the SDC 25 Series is a value strike for a 1/2 inch latchbolt, and the RCI 15BS is an economy fail-secure strike for a special offset latch entry. The Locknetics NC450 is a no-cut strike if you would rather not modify the frame at all.
21) What Grade 1 heavy duty electric strikes compare with the Trine 323478LC for a high-traffic opening?
The Trine 323478LC is a Grade 1 electric strike rated for 500,000 plus life cycles with a solid stainless steel latch and locking mechanism. On the heavy duty side of the comparable set, the Alarm Controls AES-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike, the Locknetics MDS100 US32D and MS100 US32D are heavy duty strikes, and the Von Duprin 4211 32D is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated strike for cylindrical locks with field-selectable 12/24 VDC.
22) My latchbolt throw is 3/4 inch. Is the Trine 323478LC the right strike, or do I need a different body?
The Trine 323478LC is the 3000 Series ANSI kit for cylindrical locks and tight installs, supplied with the 30LC mechanism and the 234-26D, 234X and 478-32D faceplates. When the latch throw drives the selection, the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 fire rated electric strike body offered for 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts. The SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with a radius corner faceplate if the frame prep is radiused.
23) I am ordering replacement faceplates. Are HES 1500 or 1600 accessories interchangeable with the Trine 323478LC faceplates?
No. The Trine 323478LC uses Trine's own 234-26D, 234X and 478-32D faceplates over the 30LC mechanism, and Trine publishes separate 234 and 478 metal and wood frame preps for them. HES 1500 Electric Strike Accessories and HES 1600 Electric Strike Accessories are parts for the HES 1500 Series and 1600 Series Grade 1 fire rated strikes and belong to those bodies. Order Trine faceplates for a Trine 3000 Series mechanism.
24) Will the Trine 323478LC stay aligned after install, or will it drift out of adjustment?
Horizontal adjustment on the 3000 Series is a patented feature (patent 6,634,685) and Trine's claim is that once set it will not move. That is the practical difference on a service call: you dial the keeper in to the latch on install and you are not back in six months chasing a strike that has walked out of alignment on a door that gets slammed.
25) Is the Trine 323478LC suitable for commercial buildings or is it a residential strike?
Commercial. Grade 1 with a 500,000+ cycle rating and stainless steel internals puts it in the class of hardware for multi-family common doors, offices, schools and healthcare corridors rather than a house. It is a 12/24 VAC/DC electric strike, so it needs a low voltage supply and an access control or intercom release to operate; it does not work on its own.
26) Which strikes match the satin stainless look of the Trine 323478LC across a building?
The Trine 323478LC comes in 630 satin stainless steel, aluminum powder coat and DKBZ dark bronze powder coated. If openings elsewhere in the building need a different strike body in the same satin stainless family, the Von Duprin 4211 32D and Von Duprin 6400 32D are 32D units, the 6400 32D being satin stainless steel, and the Locknetics CS450-32D, MDS100 US32D, MS100 US32D and NC450 US32D are all supplied in that finish. That keeps a mixed strike schedule visually consistent.
