Von Duprin 6121 Electric Strike for Rim Exit Devices | UL Listed, Fail-Secure, 12/24 VDC

Heavy-Duty 6100 Series Electric Strike for Commercial Rim Exit Device Applications

The Von Duprin 6121 Electric Strike is a professional-grade, heavy-duty security solution from the trusted 6100 Series, engineered specifically for use with Rim Exit Devices on interior or exterior doors with hollow metal, aluminum, or wood frames. Featuring robust stainless steel construction, this electric strike operates at 24 VDC standard with optional 12 VDC and AC conversion, and is factory configurable for fail-secure or fail-safe operation to meet the demands of virtually any commercial access control application. The 6121 is fully UL 294, UL 1034, and UL 10C listed, carrying a 3-hour fire rating on single doors and 90-minute fire rating on pair doors when used with the manufacturer's mullion (models 6111, 6112, and 6113). Its movable lip keeper allows the door to open even when the latch bolt is extended, enabling remote release for enhanced convenience, efficiency, and traffic control.

Von Duprin VON-6121-FSE-24-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 6121 electric strike work with my rim exit device?
The 6121 is built for rim exit devices with a 3/4 inch latch throw, and it works with Von Duprin, Falcon, and many other manufacturers' rim devices as well as rim night latch model 6114. If your device throws a Pullman-style latch rather than a standard 3/4 inch rim latchbolt, this is the wrong strike.
2) Should I order fail-safe or fail-secure on a 6121 strike?
Fail-secure keeps the door locked when power drops, so the opening stays secure and it's the version that can go on a fire rated door. Fail-safe releases the keeper when power is removed, which is what life safety and egress-on-power-failure schemes call for. It's a factory configuration, so pick it on the order, not in the field. Either way the exit device itself always gives free egress from the inside.
3) Does the Von Duprin 6121 run on 12 volts or 24 volts?
Both are available. 24 VDC is the standard build at 0.33 amp continuous duty; 12 VDC draws 0.6 amp continuous duty. A rectifier kit converts to AC if your power supply is VAC, and 12 VAC to 12 VDC and 24 VAC to 24 VDC rectifiers are offered as accessories. Size your power supply off the amp draw for the voltage you order.
4) Will this strike fit an aluminum storefront frame, or is it only for hollow metal?
Hollow metal, aluminum, and wood frames are all covered, on interior or exterior doors. The faceplate is 9-1/8 inches, so check you have that much clear vertical run in the jamb, and note the strike includes horizontal adjustability to help it land in a tight door prep.
5) Can the 6121 replace a Folger Adam 310-4-100 strike?
Yes, the 6121 is suitable for retrofit with many Folger Adams models including the FA 310-4-100, as well as new construction. If you would rather stay with the original design, ZenSupply also carries the HES Folger Adam 310-4 electric strike for Pullman rim exit devices.
6) If the opening is not fire rated, what else works besides the Von Duprin 6121?
On a non-rated rim exit opening the field opens up. The Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline strikes are both built for rim exit devices with field-selectable fail-safe or fail-secure operation and are not fire rated. The HES 9400 is a Grade 1 surface mounted strike for rim exit devices, also non-rated. The 6121 is the choice when you need the fire rating, since it carries one and is Grade 1 heavy duty.
7) What is the closest fire rated alternative to the Von Duprin 6121 electric strike for a rim exit device?
The HES 7501 is a fire rated Grade 1 electric strike built for latchbolts and rim exit devices, which puts it in the same application as the 6121 for a fire rated rim exit opening. The HES Folger Adam 310-4 is also fire rated and Grade 1, but it is specified for Pullman rim exit devices. The 6121 itself is Grade 1, carries a fire rating, and is factory configured fail-secure with a 3/4 inch latch throw and a 9-1/8 inch faceplate, so check the peer you choose against the exit device latch you actually have.
8) We have Folger Adam 310-4 strikes in the building. Do we replace with the same or with the Von Duprin 6121?
Either path works. The HES Folger Adam 310-4 is the like-for-like replacement and is fire rated Grade 1 for Pullman rim exit devices. The Von Duprin 6121 is listed as retrofitting the Folger Adams FA 310-4-100, so it drops into that existing prep while giving you 12/24 VDC operation, a fail-secure or fail-safe build, and optional DS or DS-LC monitoring switches.
9) Is this strike handed? I have a mix of left and right hand doors in the building.
Non-handed, so one part number covers both hands. That makes it straightforward to standardize across a floor or a whole portfolio without stocking two versions.
10) How tough is the 6121 for a high traffic entrance?
It's a Grade 1 heavy duty strike with a stainless steel body and integrated faceplate, 1500 lbs holding force, 70 ft-lbs dynamic strength, and endurance testing to 1,000,000 cycles. That is the spec set for school, hospital, and main-entry traffic rather than a light interior office door.
11) What is the DS option on the 6121 and do I need it?
DS is a dual monitor switch that reports latch bolt position and lock status back to the access control panel, so you know whether the door is actually secured. Standard DS switches are rated 24 VDC at .050 to 2.0 amps. DS-LC is the low current version for computer monitoring inputs, rated 24 VDC at .050 amp or less. If you are not monitoring the opening, order it without switches.
12) Can I use the 6121 on a pair of doors?
Yes. It's listed for double door applications, and on a pair it mounts in the mullion with the rim device latching into it. The 90 minute fire rating on pairs applies when used with the Von Duprin mullion, models 6111, 6112, or 6113, so the mullion has to be ordered separately as part of the opening.
13) Is a surface mounted electric strike an option instead of the Von Duprin 6121?
Yes, if the frame will not take a mortised prep. The HES 9500 is a surface mounted Grade 1 strike for rim exit devices and is fire rated; the HES 9400 is the surface mounted non-rated counterpart. The 6121 is a frame-mounted strike with a 9-1/8 inch faceplate suited to hollow metal, aluminum, and wood frames, so the surface mounted peers are the route when you cannot cut the frame.
14) Will the Adams Rite 7800 substitute for the Von Duprin 6121?
Not on every opening. The Adams Rite 7800 is built for rim exit devices with starwheel or interlocking latchbolts, which is a different latch engagement than the 3/4 inch latch throw the 6121 is designed around, and the 7800 is not fire rated. If your exit device uses a standard rim latch and the opening needs a fire rating, the 6121 is the match.
15) What finishes does the 6121 electric strike come in?
Six: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 629 bright stainless steel, and 630 satin stainless steel. For matching an existing bank of commercial openings, 630 satin stainless is the usual pick alongside most exit device trim.
16) Does the door still open if the latch bolt is extended on a 6121?
Yes. The movable lip keeper lets the door swing open with the latch bolt still projected, which is what allows a remote release from a front desk or card reader without anyone touching the device.
17) Is the 6121 quick to swap out if the strike ever fails in service?
Wiring uses 2-piece plug connectors, so the strike unplugs for removal and service instead of being cut and re-spliced in the frame. An Allegion Connect wire extension is available if the run from the frame to your power or controller is short. An entry buzzer is also offered as an accessory.
18) What is the difference between the Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 if I am cross shopping against the Von Duprin 6121?
Both are Ultraline electric strikes for rim exit devices with field-selectable fail-safe or fail-secure operation, and neither carries a fire rating; they are separate series, 74R1 and 74R2. The 6121 differs in that fail-safe or fail-secure is a factory configuration chosen at order, it carries a fire rating, and it is offered in six finishes from 605 bright brass through 630 satin stainless steel.
