Trine 4800F-32D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Trine 4800F electric strike work with my rim panic exit device?
The 4800F is built specifically for surface mounted rim exit devices with a 3/4 inch or greater latch throw. The cavity is completely open, so it takes a full 3/4 inch depth, and with the two 1/16 inch spacer plates that ship with it you can accommodate up to a 1 inch throw. If your device has a Pullman latch shorter than 3/4 inch, this is the wrong strike.
2) Is the Trine 4800F fire rated, and does that hold if I wire it fail safe?
Fire rated as standard, Class A 3 hour on a single door and frame, tested to UL10C, UBC 7-2 and CAN4 S104 (NFPA 252). The catch: the fire listing is void in fail safe mode. That is true of every electric strike, not just this one. If the opening is a fire door, wire it fail secure. The 4800F is supplied fail secure and the action is field selectable.
3) What voltage do I need to run the Trine 4800F strike?
Anything from 11 to 28 volts, AC or DC, with no jumpers to cut or set. The built-in electronics take the input as it comes and include surge and kickback protection. At 12VDC it pulls 0.566 amps and holds at 0.217; at 24VDC it is 0.253 pull and 0.099 hold. 12, 16 and 24 VAC are all fine too. Continuous or intermittent duty, and it runs silent, so no buzz on an office or hospitality door.
4) The opening is a pair of doors with surface vertical rod devices. Can I use the 4800F?
No. The 4800F is specified for single door frames with surface mounted rim exit devices. For surface vertical rods, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac built for that application. For a double door, the Rockwood ESK-DBL is a Grade 1 fire rated double door electric strike with a 3/4 keeper, which matches the 3/4 inch throw the 4800F works with.
5) The door has a cylindrical lockset, not a panic bar. What electric strike should I use instead of the 4800F?
The 4800F is built for surface mounted rim exit devices with a 3/4 inch or greater throw, so a cylindrical lockset needs a different body. The Von Duprin 4211 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated electric strike for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable voltage. The Adams Rite 7240 is a fire-rated strike for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection. The Hager 2930 is a fire rated Grade 1 strike that covers both cylindrical and mortise locks with 12/24 VDC dual voltage.
6) I have a mortise lock opening on a fire door. Is the 4800F the right strike?
No. The 4800F is made for exit devices. For a mortise lock on a fire rated opening, the Von Duprin 6210 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock strike, 24 VDC fail-secure, UL 10C fire rated. The Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch is a Grade 1 fire rated mortise strike. The Von Duprin 6400 is a Grade 1 modular strike for mortise or cylindrical locks, fail-secure, with a 3-hour UL 10C rating in fail-secure mode, which is the same 3 hour UL10C basis the 4800F carries.
7) Is the SDC 30-4 the same thing as the Trine 4800F?
They serve the same opening but they are different parts. The SDC 30-4 Series is a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt rim mount electric strike in stainless steel construction, which matches the 4800F's rim application and 3/4 inch throw. The difference that decides it is the rating: the 4800F is fire rated, tested to UL10C for a 3 hour Class A single door and frame configuration, and that rating is void in fail safe mode. If the opening is rated, confirm the rating before treating the two as interchangeable.
8) I need an electric strike on an exterior gate. Does the 4800F work outdoors?
The 4800F is not outdoor rated. For a gate, the Camden CX-ED1959 Series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike. It is not fire rated, which is not usually a factor on a gate but is worth confirming against the spec.
9) My power supply is 16 VAC. Which strikes accept that without a separate transformer?
The 4800F has built-in electronics that automatically accept 11 through 28 volts AC and DC, including 16 VAC, with surge and kickback protection, so the same unit covers 12/24 VAC/DC inputs. Most of the alternatives are DC only on their published input: the Von Duprin 4211 is 12/24 VDC field-selectable, the Von Duprin 6210 is 24 VDC, the Hager 2930 is 12/24VDC dual voltage, the SDC 15 Series is 12/24 VDC, and the Dortronics 3300 is 12/24VDC. If the supply on the job is AC, that difference decides it.
10) The exit device has a 5/8 inch latchbolt, not 3/4 inch. Is the 4800F still correct?
The 4800F is specified for rim exit devices with a 3/4 inch or greater throw, and its open cavity plus the two included 1/16 inch spacer plates take it to a full 3/4 inch depth and up to a 1 inch throw. For a 5/8 inch latchbolt on a fire rated opening, the SDC 45F Series is a fire-rated strike for 5/8 inch latchbolt compatibility with a radius corner faceplate, the Adams Rite 7240 is fire-rated for 5/8 inch latchbolt projection, and the Hager 2925 has a 5/8 inch latch with field reversible fail safe/secure operation. Confirm the throw on the device before ordering either way.
11) Do I need to order the LB latchbolt monitoring option on the Trine 4800F?
Only if your access control system needs to know the door is actually latched. Active latchbolt monitoring is an ordering choice on the 4800F, yes or no, and it is not field addable, so decide before you buy. If you are tying the opening into an alarm or door position reporting, order LB. For a straight buzz-in on a stairwell or service door, skip it. Either way you pick from seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, black powder coat and dark bronze powder coat.
12) How much force will the Trine 4800F hold, and how long will it last on a high traffic door?
Grade 1, rated over 3,000 lbs holding force and more than 1,500,000 life cycles. That is the top commercial tier, so it stands up to a main entrance, an apartment lobby or a school corridor door. The locking mechanism is one piece with a single solenoid, which means fewer moving parts to fail over that cycle count.
13) What is the closest alternative to the Trine 4800F rim exit strike from another brand?
The Hager 2945 is the nearest match: a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and latchbolt monitoring, which is the same feature set as a 4800F ordered with the LB option. The SDC 30-4 is another rim mount unit built for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt, in stainless steel. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 fire rated strike body that covers 1/2, 5/8 or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts if you want one body to span several openings.
14) Do I need to cut the jamb or set a voltage jumper when installing a Trine 4800F?
No voltage selection to make. The 4800F takes 11 to 28 volts AC or DC as delivered, so one part number covers a 12VDC access panel or a 24VAC transformer without changing anything in the field. Mounting uses Trine's patented 4-pin anchoring system, and the strike is intended for new or replacement installs in wood or metal frames. Fail safe versus fail secure is field selectable at install.
15) What is a simpler electric strike if the opening is not fire rated?
On a non-rated opening the fire rating stops being the deciding spec. The RCI 15BS is an economy electric strike for special offset latch entry with fail-secure operation, and it is not fire rated. The SDC 15 Series is a value strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with 12/24 VDC operation, and the SDC 25 Series is a value strike for a 1/2 inch latchbolt. The 4800F stays the choice where the rated assembly has to hold, since it is fire rated in fail-secure mode.
16) What else gives me latchbolt monitoring besides the 4800F with the LB option?
The 4800F offers active latchbolt monitoring as an ordering option in every finish it comes in. Among alternatives, the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with a latchbolt monitor, the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated dual monitor Grade 1 strike, and the Dortronics 3300 Series carries a latch bolt sensing switch at 12/24VDC with a strike plate for ANSI prep. The Dortronics unit is an ANSI prep plate rather than a rim exit application, so match it to the lock on the door.
17) What are the Grade 1 electric strike options if I have to meet a Grade 1 spec on the drawing?
The 4800F is a Grade 1 electric strike rated at 1,500,000 plus life cycles and 3,000 plus pounds holding force. Other Grade 1 bodies include the Alarm Controls AES-100, a Grade 1 heavy duty strike; the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body, Grade 1 and fire rated, for 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts; and the Von Duprin 4211, Grade 1 heavy duty and fire rated. The 310-1(X) is a strike body covering the same 3/4 inch throw range the 4800F handles.
18) Can I standardize one Trine 4800F part across a building with different door finishes?
Yes, within one strike model. The 4800F comes in seven finishes, so you can match satin stainless 630 on back of house, bright brass 605 or satin brass 606 in a lobby, satin bronze 612, bright stainless 629, or black and dark bronze powder coat on exterior facing openings, all off the same Grade 1 fire rated body with the same 9 inch faceplate and the same wiring. The only other decision per opening is whether that door needs latchbolt monitoring.
