Camden Introduces ½” Surface-Mount Rim Strike with Preload
Camden Door Controls has introduced the industry's first 1/2" RIM Strike with 15 lbs. preload. Camden 1299 Series strikes are Grade 1 rated, with UL 1034/294 and ANSI/BHMA listings. Available in brushed stainless steel or black finish, these 1299 strikes offer 'Universal' performance with selectable 12/24V, AC/DC voltage, and fail-secure/fail-safe operation. Latch monitor included. 1299 Series strikes are packaged with 1/8" and 1/4" spacer plates to accommodate up to 3/4" latch projection. A metal marking jig is also included in the package, making installation fast and easy.
1299 Series Preload RIM strikes avoid the most common cause of strike failure by withstanding up to 15 lbs. of pressure against the strike's keepers (jaws). Preload pressure can be caused by differences in air pressure on each side of the door (particularly a stacking effect common in stairwells), a misaligned door, or simply someone pushing on the door before the strike is unlocked.
