Von Duprin electric strikes are known for their reliability,
durability and security. The 6100 Series is designed to withstand
abuse. Its heavy-duty stainless steel construction is fully UL1034
and UL10C Listed and ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, 1500 lb hold force
rated.
6100 Series electric strikes are designed for use with a variety of
rim exit devices. They interface with the latch mechanism of the
exit device. The movable lip (keeper) allows a door to open even
when the latch bolt is extended. This feature, called remote
release, provides added benefits such as increased convenience
and efficiency. The 6100 Series also provides added security and
traffic control.
6100 Series electric strikes can be used for retrofit applications
or new construction. To assure the proper selection of an electric
strike on new applications, lockset compatibility charts are
shown on the next page. When using a lockset not listed or when
retrofitting a strike to an existing application, please contact Von
Duprin technical support for application assistance.
The power failure mode of the 6100 can be specified at the time
of order. Fail-secure is available for fire rated openings. In a
fail-secure application, the door is normally locked. To unlock the door, power must be applied. Fail-safe strikes which are
commonly used for life safety applications are non-fire-rated. To
unlock a fail-safe strike, power is removed. The 6100 comes
standard 24 VDC; 12 VDC and AC operation are optional.
