Electric Strike for Mortise and Cylindrical Locksets
The HES 1500C 630 electric strike works with mortise or cylindrical locksets on hollow metal or wood door frames. It is built for heavy-duty commercial and institutional access-control installations where a Grade 1 fire-rated component is required. The unit is non-handed and supports both fail-safe and fail-secure modes selectable in the field. It suits specifiers and installers who need a single strike that adapts to multiple door configurations.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
The strike operates on 12V AC/DC or 24V AC/DC input voltage, drawing low current typical of solenoid actuators. It runs silently with no moving fan or pump, so audible noise is limited to the mechanical latch release during each activation cycle. Power consumption stays minimal in both voltage settings, making it suitable for continuous duty on standard access-control power supplies. Heat output is negligible and requires no special ventilation in the frame cavity.
Build Quality Connectors and Mounting
The stainless steel body with satin stainless finish resists corrosion and meets a 1,500 lb pull-force rating for high-security openings. A 3/4 inch bolt throw engages the latchbolt reliably across 1,000,000 rated cycles. The faceplate measures 1 1/4 inches wide by 4 7/8 inches high with a 1 3/8 inch depth, fitting standard ANSI prep cutouts. Wiring connects directly to the two voltage inputs; no proprietary connectors are used. Buyers needing a narrower faceplate or a different bolt throw length should verify compatibility before ordering.

Questions about this item
How is the 1500C 630 installed in a hollow metal or wood frame and which step is often missed?
Mount the strike to the frame using the 1 1/4 in wide faceplate, then field-select fail safe or fail secure before wiring 12V or 24V AC/DC; the step often missed is setting the failure mode jumper before applying power.
What maintenance will the 1500C 630 need after extended use?
The stainless steel strike is rated for 1 000 000 cycles; periodic lubrication of the latch cavity and inspection of the 3/4 in bolt throw keep it operating smoothly.
What limit appears first when the 1500C 630 is held energised continuously?
Continuous coil energising generates heat that can trigger thermal protection before the 1 500 lb pull force rating is reached, so allow cooling intervals during sustained access control events.
