HES 4900 Deadlatch Electric Door Strike

Provide electrically controlled release at a door opening while maintaining a mechanical latching arrangement in the door. HES 4900 Series hardware addresses deadlatch applications by placing the controlled release point at the frame-side strike location. This arrangement supports access-control systems that need to release an authorized opening without replacing the complete mechanical lockset. An electric strike works with compatible latch hardware at the opening rather than functioning as a standalone locking device. Door, frame, lockset, latch geometry, handing, frame preparation, and access-control requirements must align with the selected strike configuration. Deadlatch applications require particular attention because the latch and auxiliary deadlatching function must engage correctly at the strike opening. HES 4900-35-101-313 is a 4900 Series deadlatch electric-strike configuration for physical-security door hardware. Its role is to provide a controlled frame-side release point for a compatible deadlatch installation. Specify it where the existing opening requires an HES 4900 Series configuration and where the door hardware schedule calls for electrically controlled deadlatch release.
