Hes 18311441 Electric Strike Fail Safe 712-12D-630

Product Description

The HANCHETT ENTRY SYSTEMS / HES 18311441 is a fail-safe electric strike designed for access control applications in commercial and institutional door hardware installations. In a fail-safe configuration, the strike releases the latch when power is removed, allowing free egress during a power outage or emergency condition. This behavior makes it a code-relevant choice for life-safety exit paths. The 630 finish designation indicates a satin stainless steel surface, suitable for high-traffic or corrosion-prone environments. Electrical and low-voltage access control technicians are the primary installers of this unit.

This electric strike is suited for commercial entryways where access control panels, card readers, or keypad systems govern entry. The fail-safe operation is typically specified in applications requiring compliance with fire and life-safety codes that mandate unlocked egress during power loss. The 712 series form factor is intended for use with standard door prep cutouts common in commercial hollow metal or aluminum frames. Installation is performed during new construction or retrofit access control upgrades.

Key Features

• Fail-safe operation: strike releases latch when power is removed, supporting code-compliant emergency egress
• 630 satin stainless steel finish for durability and corrosion resistance in high-traffic environments
• 12V DC input for compatibility with standard low-voltage access control power supplies
• 712 series form factor designed for commercial door frame applications
• Sold individually as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation electric strike for commercial access control systems requiring a fail-safe, low-voltage strike in a standard 712 series door prep cutout.

Installation Notes

Electric strikes of this type are installed by licensed electricians or certified access control technicians. Disconnect and lock out all power to the access control panel and door hardware circuit before beginning installation. Wiring must comply with NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements for low-voltage control wiring, and fail-safe strike placement must align with applicable local fire and life-safety codes governing emergency egress paths. Do not apply power to the strike until all wiring connections are verified and the door hardware is confirmed properly aligned.
