Phoenix, Ariz., (October 1, 2026) – HES, an ASSA ABLOY Group company and leader in electric strike innovation, launched the new HES Strike Selector Guide, an online tool that makes finding the right electric strike faster and easier. Guiding users through a series of simple questions, the selector delivers customized HES product recommendations based on opening conditions, lockset type, and application requirements.
Choosing the right electric strike often requires evaluating hardware compatibility, fire-rated requirements, preload conditions, and environmental factors. The HES Strike Selector Guide speeds the process by narrowing options to the most compatible solutions in just a few clicks.
"The HES Strike Selector Guide was created to make choosing electric strikes quicker and more accurate," said Ross Nevdahl, Director of Product Management. "Whether you're an integrator, locksmith, distributor, architect, or security consultant, it eliminates any guesswork and connects you with the right solution."
The selector supports a wide range of applications, including cylindrical locks, mortise locks, rim exit devices, and tubular vertical rod openings, while allowing users to incorporate special requirements such as fire-rated, windstorm-resistant, outdoor-rated, and preload-capable openings.
The HES Strike Selector Guide is available now at hesinnovations.com, helping customers choose products with confidence and move from selection to installation more efficiently.
