Von Duprin 6211-FSE-24-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 6211 electric strike work with my mortise lockset?
The 6211 is built for mortise locksets without a deadbolt, and Von Duprin names compatible mortise locks from Von Duprin, Adams Rite, Baldwin, Best, Corbin, Falcon, Precision, Russwin, Sargent, Schlage and Yale. Cylindrical locks are also covered, matched by latchbolt projection rather than by model. The keeper takes a 3/4 inch latch throw. If the mortise lock you are replacing throws a deadbolt into the same prep, the 6211 is the wrong strike for that opening.
2) What frame prep does the Von Duprin 6211 need, and does it fit an aluminum storefront jamb?
Face plate is 4-7/8 inches high by 1-1/4 inches wide with a backbox depth of 1-1/4 inches, which is the standard commercial strike cutout. Von Duprin states it installs in hollow metal and aluminum door frames without modification. It is non-handed, so one part number covers a left-hand or right-hand opening and you do not have to inventory both. Confirm you have 1-1/4 inches of clear depth behind the face plate in the jamb before you cut.
3) Is the Von Duprin 6211 fail-safe or fail-secure, and can I flip it in the field?
You pick it on the order, not in the field. The 6211 is built either fail-safe or fail-secure, and that choice is fixed in the unit you receive. Fail-secure keeps the door locked when power drops and needs power to release; fail-safe releases when power drops. If the job spec is not settled yet, or you want one part on the shelf that covers both, the Hager 2930 is a fire-rated strike for cylindrical and mortise locks with field-reversible fail-safe/fail-secure operation.
4) Can the Von Duprin 6211 replace an existing Von Duprin 3140 or Folger Adam 712 strike?
Yes, and that is one of the main reasons it gets specified. Von Duprin lists the 6211 as the direct retrofit replacement for the 3140 and for the Folger Adam FA 712, so the existing frame prep carries over. Order it in the voltage, finish and fail-safe or fail-secure mode the opening needs, since those are set at the factory rather than in the field. If the strike body you are replacing serves a 1/2 inch or 5/8 inch latchbolt, the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 fire-rated body covering 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 inch throws.
5) Will the Von Duprin 6211 hold up on a fire-rated door in a hospital or school?
It is UL/cUL listed for use in fire-rated door assemblies and certified to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, the top commercial hardware grade, with a 1,500 lb holding force and heavy duty rating. That combination is what gets it into healthcare, education and government openings. Watch the alternatives on this point: the Adams Rite 7100, 7160 and 7170 strikes are all listed as not fire rated, so they cannot go on the same opening no matter how well the faceplate matches.
6) Which electric strike goes into a wood frame when the Von Duprin 6211 is specified for hollow metal and aluminum?
The 6211 is specified for hollow metal and aluminum door frames and is fire rated. For a wood jamb, the Adams Rite 7170 is built for hollow metal and wood jambs and uses a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate, the same prep size as the 6211 face plate, so a frame already cut to that opening carries over. The 7170 is not fire rated, so on a wood assembly that has to hold a fire label it is worth confirming the door and frame listing before ordering.
7) The Von Duprin 6211 is a single-door strike. What electric strike handles a pair of doors instead?
The 6211 is specified for single door applications and a 3/4 inch latch throw. For an opening with two leaves, the Rockwood double door electric strike (HES-ESK-DBL) is built for double doors with a 3/4 keeper, is Grade 1, and is fire rated, so it carries the same latch throw and grade into a pair. The Securitron MUNL Mortise UnLatch is another Grade 1 fire-rated strike for mortise locks if the pair is being handled leaf by leaf.
8) Which electric strikes fit the same 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch faceplate cutout as the Von Duprin 6211?
The 6211 face plate measures 4-7/8 inches high by 1-1/4 inches wide, so an existing prep at that size opens up several alternates. The Adams Rite 7170 uses a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch faceplate for hollow metal and wood jambs, and the Adams Rite 7100 and 7160 use that same faceplate for aluminum jambs. The Dortronics 3300 comes with a strike plate for ANSI prep at 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches, and Trine's fire-rated 12 VDC strike (TRIEN43012DC32DRH) also uses a 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate. Alternates that need a longer cutout include the Trine TRI2001-16-24 and the Trine 001 Series at 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches, and the Trine TRI004 at 6-1/4 by 1-3/8 inches.
9) The opening has a rim exit device rather than a mortise or cylindrical lock. What replaces the Von Duprin 6211 there?
The 6211 is built for mortise locks without a deadbolt and for cylindrical locks, so an exit device opening calls for a different body. The Hager 2945 is a fire-rated rim exit strike with field selectable fail safe or fail secure operation and a latchbolt monitor. The SDC 30-4 is a rim mount strike for a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt in stainless steel, which matches the 3/4 inch throw the 6211 handles. For surface vertical rod devices, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac made for that application.
10) Von Duprin 6211 fail-safe and fail-secure are chosen when the strike is ordered. Which comparable strikes can be switched in the field?
On the 6211 the fail-safe or fail-secure configuration is set by the ordered variant. If the mode needs to be reversible after it is on the wall, the Hager 2930 is the closest match on coverage: fire rated, Grade 1, for cylindrical and mortise locks, 12/24 VDC dual voltage, with field reversible fail safe or fail secure operation. The Hager 2925, with a 5/8 inch latch, and the Hager 2928 also field reverse. Trine's fire-rated 12 VDC unit (TRIEN43012DC32DRH) is field selectable FS or FSE with a 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate and up to a 7/8 inch throw.
11) The Von Duprin 6211 replaces a Folger Adam FA 712. What else takes a 3/4 inch latchbolt throw in a fire-rated opening?
The 6211 is the retrofit for the Von Duprin 3140 and the Folger Adam FA 712 and works with a 3/4 inch latch throw. Staying in that Folger Adam lineage, the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) electric strike body accepts 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, or 3/4 inch throw latchbolts and is Grade 1 and fire rated, so one body covers a mixed set of latch throws across a building. The Rockwood strike (HES-ESK-DBL) also uses a 3/4 keeper and is Grade 1 and fire rated, on double doors.
12) What power supply do I need for a Von Duprin 6211 electric strike?
It runs on either 12 VDC or 24 VDC, drawing 0.60 A continuous at 12 volts and 0.33 A continuous at 24 volts. Size the supply off the figure for the voltage you actually order, and multiply it out if several strikes share one supply. Voltage is chosen at the time of order rather than set on the unit, so the strike you install has to match the access control power already in the building.
13) How do I get door position and latch monitoring out of a Von Duprin 6211?
Add the dual switch option at order. The DS option monitors latch bolt and lock status together, with switches rated 24 VDC at 0.050 to 2.0 amps, which suits relays and annunciators. DS-LC is the low current version of the same monitoring, rated 24 VDC at 0.050 amp or less, and that is the one to specify when the contacts land directly on an access control panel or computer input. Ordering without either option gets you a strike with no monitoring, and it cannot be added later.
14) What do I have to specify when ordering a Von Duprin 6211 electric strike?
Four things, all fixed at order: voltage (12 VDC or 24 VDC), fail-safe or fail-secure operation, monitoring (DS, DS-LC or none), and finish. Handing is not one of them, since the 6211 is non-handed. Get the voltage and the fail mode right the first time, because neither is changeable at the door once the unit ships.
15) I do not know what strike prep is in the frame yet. Should I use the Von Duprin 6211 or a universal strike with multiple faceplates?
The 6211 ships with one face plate, 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inches, which is the common ANSI strike prep. The Dortronics 3300 Series carries a strike plate for that same 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch ANSI prep. If the existing cutouts are a mixed bag across the building, a kit approach fits better: the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire-rated universal low profile strike shipped with four faceplates, and the CX-ED1799L-8 is a Grade 1 fire-rated dual monitor strike with eight. Survey a few frames first; if they all come back as standard prep, the 6211 covers them.
16) The lockset has a 5/8 inch latchbolt, not the 3/4 inch throw the Von Duprin 6211 is built around. What strike should be used?
The 6211 is specified at a 3/4 inch latch throw. For a 5/8 inch latchbolt, the Adams Rite 7240 is fire rated for cylindrical locksets with 5/8 inch latchbolt projection, and the SDC 45F is fire rated for a 5/8 inch latchbolt with a radius corner faceplate. The SDC 15 Series covers a 5/8 inch latchbolt on 12/24 VDC, the same voltage range the 6211 accepts, and the Hager 2925 pairs a 5/8 inch latch with field reversible operation. For a 1/2 inch latchbolt, the SDC 25 Series is the match.
17) The Von Duprin 6211 is a 12/24 VDC strike. Which comparable strike runs on an AC supply?
The 6211 is specified at 12/24 VDC. Where the existing transformer or panel puts out AC, Trine's TRI004 is a fire-rated fail secure strike running 8-16 VAC with up to a 5/8 inch throw and a 6-1/4 by 1-3/8 inch faceplate. The Trine TRI2001-16-24 is fire rated and fail secure on 16-24 VAC or DC, also up to a 5/8 inch throw, with a 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate. Both use a longer faceplate than the 6211's 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch plate, so the frame cut differs.
18) Can a Von Duprin 6211 be used on an exterior gate, or is a different electric strike required?
The 6211 is a commercial strike for hollow metal and aluminum door frames, which is an interior-frame and entry-door application rather than a gate. For a gate, the Camden CX-ED1959 Series is an outdoor rated electric gate strike, though it is not fire rated. Where an exterior door still needs a fire rating, Trine's TRIEN43012DC32DRH is fire rated and listed for indoor or outdoor use on 12 VDC, field selectable FS or FSE, with a 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate that matches the 6211 prep.
19) For a building with mixed frame preps, is there an electric strike that ships with multiple faceplates instead of one fixed body like the Von Duprin 6211?
The 6211 handles variation a different way: it is non-handed and goes into hollow metal and aluminum frames without modification, so one part number covers both frame materials. Where the preps themselves differ door to door, the Camden CX-ED1689L-4 is a fire-rated universal low profile strike supplied with 4 faceplates, and the CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire-rated Grade 1 dual monitor strike supplied with 8. The Camden CX-ED1410 and CX-ED1420 are universal Grade 1 ANSI fire-rated strikes, and the Locknetics NC450 is a no-cut strike.
20) Von Duprin 6211 latch monitoring is an added DS or DS-LC option. Which strikes include monitoring in the base part?
On the 6211, DS monitors latch bolt and lock status with switches rated 24 VDC at .050 to 2.0 amps, and DS-LC is the low current version at .050 amp or less for computer monitoring. If monitoring should be part of the base unit, the Dortronics 3300 Series includes a latch bolt sensing switch on 12/24 VDC with a strike plate for ANSI prep. The Camden CX-ED1799L-8 is a fire-rated Grade 1 dual monitor strike, and the Hager 2945 rim exit strike includes a latchbolt monitor.
21) What finishes does the Von Duprin 6211 come in, and can I match the strikes to the lock hardware already in the building?
Six finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 629 bright stainless steel, and 630 satin stainless steel. Those are standard BHMA finish codes, so match the number on the hardware you already have rather than the description. Most commercial openings are running 630 satin stainless, and 613 is the usual choice where the rest of the trim is dark bronze.
22) Are the HES 1500 and HES 1600 Series items a substitute for a Von Duprin 6211?
No. The HES 1500 and HES 1600 Series items are electric strike accessories for those strike series, not a complete strike, so neither one drops into an opening on its own the way the 6211 does as a finished Grade 1 fire-rated unit. If a complete assembly is what the job needs, the HES Folger Adam 310-4-2 is a complete Grade 1 electric strike pac, and the HES Folger Adam 310-1(X) is a Grade 1 fire-rated strike body covering 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, and 3/4 inch throw latchbolts.
23) The opening is an interior door that does not need a fire rating. Is there a lighter alternative to the Grade 1, 1,500 lb Von Duprin 6211?
The 6211 is a Grade 1 heavy duty strike rated at 1,500 lb holding force and fire rated, which is aimed at high-traffic and fire-rated assemblies. On an interior door outside that scope, the Trine 001 Series is a light commercial fail-secure strike with a 5-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch faceplate and is not fire rated. The RCI 15BS is a fail-secure strike for a special offset latch entry, also not fire rated. The SDC 15 Series runs 12/24 VDC on a 5/8 inch latchbolt, and the SDC 25 Series covers a 1/2 inch latchbolt.
