Camden CX-ED1379 Grade 1 Universal Electric Strike with Two ANSI Round Faceplates is a commercial-grade, electrically operated door-frame strike designed for narrow-stile aluminum storefront doors and other correctly prepared commercial openings. The CX-ED1379 lets a compatible access-control system release a mechanical latch on command, making it a versatile solution for storefront entrances, office access points, service doors, and managed commercial entry systems.

The strike operates on field-selectable 12/24V AC or DC and can be configured for fail-safe or fail-secure operation, depending on the project's locking and life-safety requirements. Its keeper is designed for 1/2"–5/8" latchbolt projection. Each CX-ED1379 package includes two interchangeable ANSI round faceplates, providing a choice of 628 Brushed Aluminum or 710 Dark Bronze to match existing storefront hardware. Both faceplates are included with one strike; they are not separate product variants.

Technical Specifications

Commercial Applications

The Camden CX-ED1379 is suitable for storefront glass entrance systems with narrow aluminum frames, tenant office entrances, retail service doors, property management facilities, and other properly configured commercial openings. Camden's lockset compatibility information identifies several supported Adams Rite lock arrangements, but the exact latch, backset, strike alignment, and frame preparation must be checked before installation.

Ordering & Installation Notes

Confirm the CX-ED1379 model, 1/2"–5/8" latch projection, narrow-stile frame preparation, faceplate dimensions, controller voltage, and intended fail-safe/fail-secure function before ordering. This is a door-frame electric strike, not a rim-exit-device surface strike or a complete lockset. The compatible mechanical latch or lockset, access controller, power supply, reader, wiring and other access-control components are not included unless expressly provided in a separate package.

Life-safety note: Electric-strike selection must be reviewed in the context of the complete door assembly, applicable fire and egress requirements, and the manufacturer's installation instructions. Do not assume the CX-ED1379 is suitable for a fire-rated opening without verifying an approved configuration. Installation should be performed by qualified personnel.

Commercial Door Worx supplies Camden electric strikes, access-control components, storefront door hardware, locking products, and replacement hardware for commercial contractors and facility maintenance teams.

Storefront Strike Selection and Compatibility

Camden CX-ED1379 is a Grade 1 electric strike for properly prepared narrow-stile storefront door systems. This configuration includes 628 satin aluminum and 710 dark bronze ANSI round faceplates, allowing the installer to match common storefront architectural finishes without ordering a completely different strike.

Before Ordering

1. Confirm the existing lock is a compatible narrow-stile storefront deadlatch or latch arrangement, not a rim exit device requiring a surface-mounted rim strike.
2. Measure the existing latchbolt projection and confirm the specified 1/2-inch to 5/8-inch range.
3. Identify the correct round faceplate, mounting hole locations, frame material and lockset centerline.
4. Specify 12V or 24V AC/DC operation and the fail-safe or fail-secure setting required by the complete access-control design.
5. Confirm any required fire and life-safety listings; do not assume the base CX-ED1379 is approved for an existing fire-rated door assembly.

Common Applications

Retail storefront entrances, aluminum-and-glass commercial doors, property-management service openings and offices equipped with compatible narrow-stile locking hardware. The strike can be integrated with a suitable reader, keypad or intercom-controlled relay.

Included: The specified electric strike and its two furnished architectural faceplates. Not automatically included: power supply, card reader, keypad, lock body or separate access-control panel. Shipping weight should be confirmed against packed cartons when booking freight.
