BEST 1E7424C4RP3626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the BEST 1E7424 mortise cylinder come with a core, or is it housing only?
The 1E7424 is the mortise cylinder housing built for BEST's small format interchangeable core (SFIC) system. You supply the core, which drops in and can be masterkeyed into an existing BEST system. If you need the core itself un-combinated for your own pinning, GMS sells small format IC cores in 6-pin and 7-pin versions.
2) What cam does the BEST 1E7424 use, and will it work in a non-BEST mortise lock?
Standard build ships with the 1E-C4 cam, which is what a standard mortise lock application expects. The cylinder can be altered to work with other manufacturers' mortise locks by swapping the cam and using a different cylinder ring. That is why the cylinder option runs across C4, C118, C127, C128, C129, C136, C161, C181, C191, C208, C210, C258 and C265, so pick the cam that matches the lock body you are cylindering.
3) I manage a building already on a BEST key system. Can I add this cylinder without rekeying anything else?
Yes. Because it takes a BEST small format interchangeable core, the 1E7424 can be masterkeyed into any existing BEST system, so it joins your current master and grand master hierarchy. Rekeying later means pulling and swapping the core with a control key rather than pulling the cylinder out of the lock.
4) What is the closest alternative to a BEST 1E7424 mortise cylinder housing if I need a Yale cam instead of the standard BEST cam?
The BEST 1E7424 is a mortise cylinder with SFIC housing that ships with the standard 1E-C4 cam, and it can be altered to work with other manufacturers' locks by changing cams and cylinder rings. If you would rather buy the housing already set up for a Yale-style cam, the GMS ICM7-ST is a BEST SFIC straight mortise housing, 7-pin, with a Yale cam. Both accept a small format interchangeable core; the difference is the cam that comes on the housing and the straight housing profile of the GMS part.
5) I already have mortise housings on the doors and only need the interchangeable cores - what do I order instead of a BEST 1E7424?
The BEST 1E7424 is the mortise cylinder housing that receives a small format interchangeable core, so if the housings are already in the doors you only need cores. The GMS IC7-26D is a 7-pin small format IC core only, un-combinated, supplied without keys, pins, springs or caps. The GMS IC6-26D is the same small format core in a 6-pin version. Both are core-only parts, so they do not include the mortise housing that the 1E7424 provides.
6) What finishes can I get the BEST 1E7424 mortise cylinder in to match the rest of my door hardware?
Six finishes: 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome and 626 satin chrome. 626 satin chrome is the usual match for commercial openings running 626 lever trim, and 625 for polished chrome sets.
7) How is the BEST 1E7424 cylinder held in the mortise lock case?
A diagonal set screw seats in the cylinder wall. Tightened down, it clamps the cylinder in the housing, which is also what keeps it from being spun or backed out of the door. Body is machined brass or bronze bar stock.
8) Is a BEST 1E7424 the right part if the existing cylinder just needs a different collar or ring thickness?
No. The BEST 1E7424 is a complete mortise cylinder with SFIC housing that mounts in the lock body and is held by a diagonal set screw. If the cylinder itself is fine and only the trim ring or collar height needs to change, the GMS KIT-PART04 collars kit is the part that addresses that. Order the 1E7424 when you need the housing itself, in one of the cam options such as C4, C118 or C265, and one of the finishes such as 626 satin chrome or 613 oil-rubbed bronze.
9) Will a BEST 1E7424 work on a glass door lock, or do I need something else?
The BEST 1E7424 is a mortise-type cylinder intended for standard mortise lock bodies in commercial applications, not for a glass door lock assembly. For glass door hardware such as the Codelocks CL4000 or CL4500, the matching part is the Codelocks CL4000-RSB glass door strike box, which is made for those locks. Confirm the opening is a mortise-prepped door before specifying the 1E7424.
10) Does a BEST 1E7424 mortise cylinder do anything for an electrified or access-control opening?
No. The BEST 1E7424 is a non-electronic mechanical mortise cylinder with an interchangeable core; its access control role is keying, including masterkeying into an existing BEST system. Credential-based programming is handled by separate devices: the Alarm Lock DTMIII data transfer module supports Trilogy electronic access control with a 200-lock capacity, the Alarm Lock PCI2-U is a USB computer interface cable with DL-Windows software for programming, and the Alarm Lock PRE2 is a proximity card enroller for HID and iClass. Those are programming tools, not cylinders.
11) My Corbin Russwin 2000 series classroom mortise lock needs to be converted - is the BEST 1E7424 the part?
The BEST 1E7424 covers the cylinder side: it is a mortise cylinder with SFIC housing that can be altered to function with other manufacturers' locks through different cams and cylinder rings, so it is the route to putting a BEST interchangeable core into a non-BEST mortise body. Converting the lock's operation rather than its keying is a different part - the ACSI 8500 Gemini operator is built for a Corbin Russwin 2000 series classroom mortise lever lock body. Decide whether you are changing the key system or the lock function before ordering.
12) Is the BEST 1E7424 a mechanical cylinder or does it need power?
Purely mechanical. It is a non-electronic mortise cylinder for commercial door hardware, so there is no wiring, no voltage and no access control panel involved. Key control comes from the interchangeable core, not from electronics.
13) Is the BEST 1E7424 a repair part I can stock for a facility, or a one-off?
It is catalogued as a commercial replacement part, which is how most institutional buyers use it: keep a few housings and cores in finish 626 on the shelf and cylinder new or repaired mortise locks as they come up. Common settings are offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, multi-tenant residential, industrial and retail.
14) What looks like a substitute for a BEST 1E7424 but will not key the door?
Several mortise-adjacent parts share the opening but do no keying at all. The Cal-Royal ASA478 is a template ASA strike, the Trimco 1268 is a 3-1/2 inch diameter anchor plate, and the ABH 1890 and 1895 series are roller latches with adjustable projections of 5/16 inch and 1/2 inch respectively. The BEST 1E7424 is the keyed mortise cylinder with SFIC housing itself, machined from brass or bronze bar stock, and is what carries the interchangeable core.
