Von Duprin 6112FS12 Electric Strike 12VDC Fail Safe

Product Description

The VON DUPRIN 6112FS12 is a fail-safe electric strike designed for access control applications in commercial and institutional door hardware systems. Operating at 12 volts DC, this unit releases the latch keeper when power is applied, allowing the door to open. In a fail-safe configuration, the strike defaults to the unlocked position when power is lost, making it appropriate for egress-critical openings where life-safety codes require free exit under all conditions. It is sold as an individual unit and is installed by licensed locksmiths, access control technicians, or electricians working within low-voltage door hardware systems.

The 6112FS12 is intended for commercial door frames where an electric strike replaces a standard fixed strike. Typical installations include office entry doors, corridor doors, and access-controlled vestibules where a credential reader or push-button controls the latch release. The fail-safe operation makes this strike well suited for stairwell doors, fire egress corridors, and any opening governed by local building codes requiring unlocked egress upon power failure. The US32D satin stainless finish provides corrosion resistance for interior installations in high-traffic environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith, access control technician, or qualified electrician familiar with low-voltage door hardware. Disconnect and lock out all power to the access control circuit before wiring the strike. Verify that the door frame cutout dimensions match the strike body before installation, and confirm that the connected power supply output matches the 12VDC requirement. Local building codes, including IBC egress requirements, should be reviewed to confirm fail-safe operation is permitted or required for the specific opening.
