Trine EN400-24DC-32D-RH – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use an electric strike on an exterior gate or a door exposed to weather?
The Trine EN400 is built for exactly that. It carries a UL 1034 Indoor/Outdoor Burglary Resistant listing, which is what separates it from strikes that are only rated for a conditioned interior opening. Trine calls out gates specifically, along with high humidity locations like marinas and pool enclosures. If your opening is outdoors, this is the one to spec. For a gate you will normally also want the weldable gate box, which is offered as an option with the strike (unfinished, or aluminum finished).
2) Will the Trine EN400 work with my cylindrical lockset or mortise lock?
Both. The EN400 is made for cylindrical locksets, mortise locks without a deadbolt, and mortise exit devices with up to a 7/8 inch latch throw. That 7/8 inch figure is the limit that decides it: measure the latchbolt projection on the lock you are keeping, and if it is 7/8 inch or under, the strike will take it. A mortise lock with an active deadbolt is out, since the strike only handles the latch.
3) Is the Trine EN400 fire rated for a 3 hour door?
Yes. The EN400 is UL 10C Listed, Class A, 3 hour, single swing door, and it also holds a UL 294 (6th Edition) listing for access control use plus NYC MEA 79-01-E approval. On a fire rated opening you must use the fail secure configuration, since a fail safe strike releases the latch when power drops and a fire door has to stay latched.
4) Do I have to order the EN400 handed, or can it be reversed on site?
Handing is field reversible on the EN400, so a left hand or right hand opening is handled by the same strike body. You still pick Left Hand or Right Hand when ordering, but if the opening turns out to be the other way in the field you are not sending the part back.
5) Is the Trine EN400 fail safe or fail secure, and can I change it later?
Both are offered, and on DC units the mode is field reversible, so a 12 VDC or 24 VDC strike can be flipped between fail safe and fail secure at the opening. AC units are not reversible, so on 12 VAC or 24 VAC you have to order the mode you want. Fail secure keeps the door locked when power drops (the mode for a fire rated opening); fail safe releases on power loss, which is what an egress or access-controlled interior door often calls for.
6) My latch throw is over 7/8 inch. Is there a strike that handles it?
Not the Trine EN400, which tops out at a 7/8 inch throw. For a longer latchbolt, the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) strike body is built for 1/2, 5/8 or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts, and the SDC 30-4 Series takes a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt on a rim mount. Measure the projection off the lock face with the door open before you order either way, because that number, not the lock brand, is what decides the strike.
7) What electric strike works for an aluminum storefront jamb instead of the Trine EN400?
The Trine EN400 is built for new or replacement installations in wood or metal jambs with cylindrical locksets, mortise locks without deadbolts, and mortise exit devices up to 7/8 inch throw. Aluminum storefront with a narrow stile deadlatch is a different prep: the Adams Rite 7100 Series is an electric strike for aluminum jambs with a flat faceplate in the same 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch size, and the Adams Rite 7160 is an aluminum jamb strike with a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate as well. Both Adams Rite units are not fire rated, so they suit unrated storefront entrances.
8) Which fire rated electric strikes give me latch monitoring that the Trine EN400 does not?
The Trine EN400 is a fire rated Grade 1 strike with field reversible fail safe/fail secure operation on DC units and one solenoid driving a one piece locking mechanism. If the access control head end needs a door position or latch signal back, the Dortronics 3300 Series is an electric strike with a latch bolt sensing switch on 12/24VDC with an ANSI prep strike plate at 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch, the Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire rated dual monitor Grade 1 strike supplied with eight faceplates, and the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with a latchbolt monitor. All three drop into the same ANSI prep family the EN400 uses.
9) What is the closest equivalent to the Trine EN400 electric strike from another brand?
The Trine EN400 is a fire rated electric strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with a 4-7/8 inch faceplate, field reversible fail safe/fail secure operation, and an outdoor rating. The closest single match in another line is the Hager 2930, a fire rated Grade 1 electric strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with field reversible fail safe/fail secure operation and 12/24VDC dual voltage. The Von Duprin 6400 32D is also a Grade 1 modular electric strike for mortise or cylindrical locks with a 3-hour UL 10C fire rating, though it is a fail-secure unit rather than field reversible. Where the EN400 differs from both is the outdoor rating, which is what makes it the choice for gates, marinas, and pool enclosures.
10) Which electric strike should I use on a gate or exterior fence opening if I do not need a fire rating?
The Trine EN400 carries an outdoor rating and is fire rated, so it covers both exterior and rated openings. If the opening is an exterior gate with no fire requirement, the Camden CX-ED1959 is an outdoor rated gate strike and is not fire rated. Choose on the opening: a rated door assembly needs the fire rated unit, while an open gate or fence panel has no rated assembly to protect.
11) What do I use if the door has a rim exit device or surface vertical rods instead of a cylindrical or mortise lock?
The Trine EN400 is specified for cylindrical locksets, mortise locks without deadbolts, and mortise exit devices with up to 7/8 inch throw, so a rim exit device or surface vertical rod device is outside what it accepts. For a rim exit device, the Hager 2945 is a fire rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe/fail secure and a latchbolt monitor. For surface vertical rods, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac built for that application, and the SDC 30-4 Series is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel.
12) I need an electric strike that runs on AC. Which options handle that besides the Trine EN400?
The Trine EN400 is offered in 12 VAC, 24 VAC, 12 VDC and 24 VDC, with the AC units running intermittent duty and buzzing, and the DC units running intermittent or continuous and silent. Several peers are DC only: the Von Duprin 6210 is 24 VDC, the Von Duprin 4211 32D is 12/24 VDC field-selectable, the Hager 2930 is 12/24VDC dual voltage, the SDC 15 Series is 12/24 VDC, and the Dortronics 3300 Series is 12/24VDC. If the existing transformer feeds AC and rewiring is not in scope, the EN400 covers it directly.
13) What voltage and current does the Trine EN400 draw, and will it run on PoE?
Four options: 12 VAC at 0.700 A (4.5 ohms), 24 VAC at 0.370 A (18.0 ohms), 12 VDC at 0.280 A (43.0 ohms), and 24 VDC at 0.150 A (164.0 ohms). Trine flags the EN series as PoE friendly, and the DC draw is why. Size your supply from the row you order. AC units are rated intermittent duty only; the DC units are rated intermittent or continuous, so if the strike will sit energized (a fail safe application does exactly that), order DC.
14) Which Trine EN400 version buzzes and which one is silent?
The AC versions buzz, both 12 VAC and 24 VAC, because the solenoid follows the AC cycle. The 12 VDC and 24 VDC versions are silent. On an office suite, a hotel corridor, or a healthcare opening, order DC. The buzz is sometimes wanted on a shop or service door as an audible signal to the person at the door that it has released, and that is the case for AC.
15) How strong is the Trine EN400, and will it hold up on a high traffic door?
Grade 1 electric strike, UL tested at 2,000+ lbs static strength and rated for 1,000,000+ cycles. The locking mechanism is one piece driven by a single solenoid, so there is less inside it to fail than in a multi-part keeper. For a main entry, a gate, or an amenity door that runs all day, those are the two numbers to standardize on across a property.
16) What do I need to order to mount an electric strike in a steel gate frame?
A weldable gate box, which is offered with the Trine EN400 as a required selection: not included, included unfinished, or included in an aluminum finish. A gate frame has no jamb to prep, so the box is welded into the frame and the strike mounts into it. Pick the aluminum finished box if it will be visible on an aluminum or painted gate; the unfinished box is the one to take when it is getting coated to match the gate.
17) I need an outdoor gate strike but the opening is not fire rated. What else could I use?
The Camden CX-ED1959 Series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike and is not fire rated, so it suits a gate or fence where no fire label is involved. Take the Trine EN400 instead when the opening is fire rated, since the EN400 is UL 10C Listed Class A for a 3 hour single swing door on top of its outdoor listing, and it is the option that covers both conditions with one part number.
18) Is there a simpler electric strike than the Trine EN400 for an interior door that does not need an outdoor or fire rating?
The Trine EN400 pairs an outdoor rating with a fire rating, and that combination is what an exterior or rated opening needs. For a plain interior opening, the SDC 15 Series is a value electric strike for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with 12/24 VDC operation, and the SDC 25 Series is a value strike for 1/2 inch latchbolt compatibility. The RCI 15BS is an economy strike for a special offset latch entry with fail-secure operation and no fire rating, so it fits only where the latch matches and the door is unrated.
19) Are the HES 1500 and 1600 items an alternative to the Trine EN400 strike?
No. The Trine EN400 is a complete heavy duty electric strike body with the solenoid and locking mechanism. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 items are electric strike accessories for those Grade 1 fire rated series, meaning faceplates and parts rather than a working strike. The HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is likewise sold as a strike body for 1/2, 5/8 or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts. Order against what the opening is missing: a full strike, a body, or parts.
20) Which heavy duty Grade 1 electric strikes compete with the Trine EN400 on a high traffic entrance?
The Trine EN400 is a Grade 1 strike rated 2,000+ lbs UL tested with a durability of 1,000,000+ life cycles and a one piece locking mechanism driven by a single solenoid. Other heavy duty Grade 1 units for that kind of traffic include the Alarm Controls AES-100, the Von Duprin 4211 32D for cylindrical locks with 12/24 VDC field-selectable operation and a fire rating, and the Securitron MUNL mortise unlatch strike, which is Grade 1 and fire rated. The Locknetics MDS100 and MS100 in US32D are also heavy duty strikes. Of that group, the EN400 is the one carrying the outdoor rating for exposed entrances.
21) Which strike do I use on a pair of doors where the Trine EN400 goes into the jamb?
The Trine EN400 mounts in a wood or metal jamb, which assumes a single door with a frame to receive it. On a pair with no center mullion, the Rockwood ESK-DBL is a Grade 1 fire rated double door electric strike with a 3/4 keeper built on the 310-1 series. That is a different mounting problem than the EN400 solves, so confirm the opening before ordering either.
22) Which electric strikes offer field reversible fail safe and fail secure like the Trine EN400?
The Trine EN400 is field reversible between fail safe and fail secure on DC units, and it is sold in both configurations along with both handings, which are also field reversible. In other lines, the Hager 2925 with a 5/8 inch latch, the Hager 2928, and the Hager 2930 all list field reversible fail safe/fail secure operation, and the Hager 2945 rim exit strike is field selectable. The Camden CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire rated units. Reversible mode matters when the authority having jurisdiction changes the egress call after the hardware is on site.
23) What finishes does the Trine EN400 come in, and what are the BHMA numbers?
Seven finishes: bright brass (BHMA 605), satin brass (606), satin bronze (612), dark bronze (613), polished chrome (629), satin stainless steel (630), and black powder coat. For an exterior gate or a coastal opening, satin stainless (630) or the black powder coat are the two that stand up best to weather. To match existing hardware across a building, 630 is the usual commercial standard and pairs with the 32D lever and closer trim already on most openings.
