Von Duprin 6300 Surface Mounted Electric Strike for Rim Exit Devices

No-Cut Surface Mounted Electric Strike for Storefronts and Retrofit Commercial Applications

The Von Duprin 6300 Series Surface Mounted Electric Strike installs on hollow metal, aluminum, or wood frames without cutting or altering the existing frame. It is designed for use with rim exit devices, including the Von Duprin 98/99 Series, Falcon, and most other manufacturers' rim exit devices, and supports single doors or pairs with a mullion. The 9" face plate, 3/4" latch throw, and plug-in voltage connectors allow fast field installation and easy removal for servicing.

Von Duprin 6300 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 6300 electric strike work with a rim exit device from another brand, or only Von Duprin?
The 6300 surface mounted strike is built for rim exit devices generally, not just Von Duprin. It works with the Von Duprin 98/99 Series and with Falcon and most other manufacturers' rim exit devices. The one thing that has to be true is that the device is a rim device with a surface latch that projects into the strike pocket; mortise and vertical rod devices are not what this strike is for.
2) Do I have to cut the frame to install a Von Duprin 6300 electric strike?
No cutting. The 6300 mounts to the surface of the frame and requires no alteration to it, which is why it gets specified on storefronts and retrofits where the frame cannot be modified. It goes on hollow metal, aluminum, or wood frames. Plan for the strike body itself: it measures 9 inches long by 1-3/4 inches wide with a 3/4 inch projection off the face of the frame, so you need that much clear run alongside the opening.
3) Can a surface mounted electric strike be used on a fire rated door?
On a fire rated opening the strike must be fail secure, and the 6300 is a fail secure only strike, which is exactly what makes it eligible. It is UL 10C 3-hour fire rated in that fail secure configuration, plus UL 1034 listed for burglary resistant strikes, UL 294 listed for access control, and CSFM listed. If your access control scheme calls for the door to unlock on power loss, this is the wrong strike and you need a fail safe product on a non-rated opening.
4) My access control panel puts out 12 VAC, not DC. What do I order with the 6300 strike?
Add a rectifier kit. The 6300 solenoid runs on DC only, field selectable for 12 VDC at 0.5 amp or 24 VDC at 0.24 amp continuous duty. For an AC supply, order the strike with the SO12 kit (12 VAC to 12 VDC) or the SO24 kit (24 VAC to 24 VDC), matched to whatever your power supply actually puts out. On a straight DC supply no kit is needed and you just set the voltage in the field.
5) Will the 6300 electric strike catch the latch on my rim device, or do I need a specific latch throw?
The 6300 is set up for a 3/4 inch latchbolt throw, which is what a standard rim exit device latch projects, and the pocket in the 9 inch face plate takes it. The mounting holes allow horizontal adjustment, so the pocket can be shifted to line up with where the device's latch actually lands rather than requiring the frame to be perfect. A Pullman-type latch is a different geometry and wants a strike made for it.
6) Can I use one electric strike on a pair of doors, or do I need something else?
The 6300 works on single doors or pairs, but on a pair it has to have something to strike into. A rim device latches into the strike mounted on the frame or on a removable mullion, so a pair without a mullion has no place to put it and needs vertical rod devices instead. With a mullion between the leaves, the strike mounts there and the pair is controlled normally.
7) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 6300 and the HES 9400 or 9500 surface mounted strike?
All three are surface mounted strikes for rim exit devices, and all three are Grade 1. The dividing line is the fire rating. The 6300 is fire rated, as is the HES 9500. The HES 9400 is not fire rated, so it is off the table on a rated opening no matter how the rest of the job looks. On a non-rated storefront the 9400 is a real option; on a labelled door, stay with the 6300 or the 9500.
8) Which electric strike for a rim exit device can be set to fail-safe instead of fail-secure?
The Von Duprin 6300 is a fail-secure strike, which is what allows it to be used in UL 10C fire-rated openings. If the opening calls for fail-safe release on power loss - a stair re-entry or an egress path tied to the fire alarm - the Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline strikes for rim exit devices are field-selectable between fail-safe and fail-secure. Both Adams Rite Ultraline models are not fire rated, so they belong on non-rated openings.
9) What is the closest equivalent to the Von Duprin 6300 electric strike for a rim exit device on a fire-rated opening?
The Von Duprin 6300 is a Grade 1, fire-rated surface mounted electric strike for rim exit devices. The nearest peer with the same combination is the HES 9500, a Grade 1 surface mounted electric strike for rim exit devices that is also fire rated. The HES 7501 is another Grade 1 fire-rated strike, built for latchbolts as well as rim exit devices, so it covers a wider range of latch types.
10) What electric strike works with a Pullman latch rim exit device instead of the Von Duprin 6300?
The Von Duprin 6300 has a 3/4 inch latch throw and is built for standard rim exit device latchbolts, including Von Duprin 98/99 Series and most other manufacturers' rim devices. Rim exit devices with a Pullman type latch need a strike cut for that latch: the HES Folger Adam 310-4 is an electric strike for Pullman rim exit devices, and it is Grade 1 and fire rated.
11) Does the Von Duprin 6300 need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
Handing is not a factor. The 6300 uses a non-handed internal solenoid design, so one part number covers either swing. That also means you can stock a single strike across a building of mixed-hand openings instead of splitting the order.
12) What options do I have to pick when ordering a Von Duprin 6300 strike?
Two choices on the order form. First, entry buzzer: none, or the EB option, which sounds when the strike is energized so someone at the door knows to pull. Second, rectifier kit: none, SO12, or SO24. Those combine freely, so a 6300 with an entry buzzer and a 24 VAC rectifier is an orderable build. Everything else, including the satin stainless finish and the fail secure function, is fixed.
13) What comes in the box with a Von Duprin 6300 strike, and what do I still have to buy?
The strike ships with two plug-in voltage connectors, a mounting template, a spacer plate, mounting screws, and a hex wrench, so the mechanical install is covered out of the box. What you supply is the power: a 12 or 24 VDC supply, or an AC supply plus the matching SO12 or SO24 rectifier kit ordered with the strike. Wiring from the panel to the frame is also yours. The plug-in connectors mean the strike can be pulled for service without cutting conductors.
14) Can the 6300 strike replace a cut-in electric strike in an existing aluminum storefront frame?
Yes, and that is the usual reason it gets picked. Because the 6300 mounts on the surface of the frame with no cutting, it goes onto an aluminum, hollow metal, or wood frame that is already prepped, damaged, or too narrow to accept a mortised strike. You are covering the old prep rather than enlarging it. Confirm the existing device is a rim device before ordering, since the strike is made for rim latches only.
15) Which electric strike suits a pair of doors with interlocking or starwheel latchbolts rather than the Von Duprin 6300?
The Von Duprin 6300 serves single or double doors, with pairs handled by a mullion carrying the rim device. Where the pair uses starwheel or interlocking latchbolts instead of a mullion, the Adams Rite 7800 is an electric strike built for starwheel/interlocking latchbolts on rim exit devices. The Adams Rite 7800 is not fire rated, so a rated pair keeps the fire-rated 6300 with its mullion arrangement.
16) For an aluminum storefront frame, does the Von Duprin 6300 or an Adams Rite Ultraline strike fit better?
The Von Duprin 6300 mounts on the surface of hollow metal, aluminum, or wood frames with no cutting to the existing frame, and carries a 9 inch face plate with a 3/4 inch latch throw. The Adams Rite 74R1 and 74R2 Ultraline strikes are also made for rim exit devices; neither is fire rated. On an aluminum storefront the choice comes down to whether the opening is rated and whether fail-safe release is required, since the Ultraline models are field-selectable fail-safe or fail-secure while the 6300 is fail-secure.
