BEST BES-1EG6G4-C4RP3626-SC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a shifting cam mortise cylinder and why would a hotel need one?
A shifting cam cylinder is used on hotel-function mortise locks where the cam has to move between positions so the emergency or shutout key can override a guest key. The BEST 1EG Series is built for exactly that duty in guest rooms, dorms, patient rooms and multi-unit residential doors. If your mortise lock is a standard office or storeroom function with no hotel override, you want a standard mortise cylinder instead, not the shifting cam version.
2) What cylinder length do I order for the BEST 1EG, 6-pin or 7-pin?
Both are offered. The 6-pin 1EG measures 1-5/16 inches in length and the 7-pin measures 1-5/32 inches. Pin count has to match the rest of your BEST system, so order whichever matches the keying your building is already on.
3) What do I have to specify when ordering a BEST 1EG cylinder?
Three things are required beyond finish and pin count: keyway, keymark, and marking number. Keyway choices are A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, O, R, TB, TC, TD and TE. The keymark and marking number tie the cylinder into your existing BEST key system, so pull them off a door you already have keyed.
4) Will the 1-5/32 inch diameter BEST cylinder fit my existing mortise lock prep?
The 1EG is a 1-5/32 inch diameter mortise cylinder, which is the standard mortise cylinder body size for commercial mortise lock cases. The variable is length and ring stack, not diameter: use the 6-pin at 1-5/16 inches or the 7-pin at 1-5/32 inches, and add rings so the face sits flush with the escutcheon.
5) The opening is an aluminum storefront with an Adams Rite deadlock - can I use the BEST 1EG or do I need something else?
The 1EG can be ordered with an Adams Rite MS cam, which is what an MS deadlock requires, so it is a workable choice for storefront. If you would rather use an Adams Rite cylinder, the 4036 mortise cylinder is a five-pin Grade 1 unit with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness. Where the narrow stile door needs a pull instead of a plain cylinder, the Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin cylinder pull with through-screws are both made for the MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch.
6) What is the closest mortise cylinder equivalent to the BEST 1EG hotel shifting cam cylinder if I need a fixed, non-shifting cam instead?
For a conventional mortise cylinder with a fixed cam, the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 series mortise cylinder in 1-1/2 inch length with an A02 straight cam is the direct alternative. The BEST 1EG is built specifically with a shifting cam for hotel guest room lock functions and ships with an SC258 cam or cam as specified, so it behaves differently in the lock case than a straight-cam cylinder. If the mortise lock on the opening does not use hotel function, the straight cam version is the one to spec.
7) I need an interchangeable core mortise cylinder rather than a standard core - what should I use?
The BEST 1EG is a standard core cylinder, so cores are not swapped without disassembly. If your key system is built on interchangeable cores, the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder, 6-pin, is the large format interchangeable core mortise alternative, supplied with an A01 cloverleaf cam and sized for Schlage L9000 mortise locks. For a full size interchangeable core in a rim application, the Schlage 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam covers that side.
8) The exit device on the door takes a rim cylinder, not a mortise cylinder - what is the right part?
Order a rim cylinder rather than a mortise body. The Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and two keys; the 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam. The Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. Tailpiece orientation and length must match the device, which is the one detail to confirm before ordering.
9) My doors have key-in-knob or key-in-lever locks, not mortise locks - is the BEST 1EG the wrong cylinder?
Yes, a mortise cylinder threads into a mortise lock case and will not fit a knob or lever. For those, use a key-in-knob or lever cylinder: the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a universal key-in-knob and lever cylinder, the 1579 is the knob and lever cylinder for Sargent locks, and the 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different, supplied with two cut keys. For a keyed deadbolt, the Kaba Ilco 1549 is the key-in-deadbolt cylinder.
10) Is the BEST 1EG a rim cylinder or a mortise cylinder?
It is a mortise cylinder, threaded to screw into a mortise lock case. For a rim device such as a surface exit device, you would want a rim cylinder instead, for example the Schlage 20-021 6-pin rim cylinder with vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with horizontal tailpiece cam, or the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece.
11) Are spacer rings included with the BEST 1EG cylinder?
The RP2 ring package is supplied standard with both the 6-pin and 7-pin cylinders unless something else is specified. Ring choices on the order include 3E Mortise, 6-pin Mortise, 7-pin Mortise, Rim Cylinder and Tapered Cylinder, so you can dial the cylinder face flush with the trim on a thicker or thinner door prep.
12) If I do not need a hotel shifting cam, what other mortise cylinders are available?
For plain mortise duty, the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 mortise cylinder comes 1-1/2 inch long with an A02 straight cam, and the CR1070 is a 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam. The Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder cut to Schlage C keyway. None of those gives you the hotel shifting cam function the BEST 1EG is built for.
13) I am rekeying residential handlesets and deadbolts, not hotel mortise locks - what cylinder fits those?
Residential handlesets and deadbolts generally take a rim type lazy motion cylinder rather than a threaded mortise cylinder. The Medeco 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, and the 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts. For Emtek, the 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders. Emtek also sells the CY4 cylinder as a single piece.
14) Is there a simpler mortise cylinder option if I only need one or two doors keyed to a Schlage C keyway?
The Detex MC65 is a commercial grade 6-pin mortise cylinder at 1-1/8 inch with a Schlage C keyway, which is a straightforward single-opening choice. The BEST 1EG runs a 1-5/32 inch diameter body and is ordered against a BEST keyway selection from A through TE plus a keymark and marking number, which suits a facility already on a BEST key system rather than a one-off replacement.
15) What is the difference between the BEST 1EG mortise cylinder and the Corbin Russwin 1070 mortise housing?
The Corbin Russwin 1070 is a Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing supplied with an A01 cloverleaf cam. The BEST 1EG is a 1-5/32 inch diameter hotel shifting cam mortise cylinder in solid brass or bronze, offered in 6-pin and 7-pin types and ordered with an RP2 ring package as standard. The practical split is cam type and pin count: the 1EG covers a 7-pin option and the hotel shifting cam, while the 1070 is a 6-pin cloverleaf cam housing.
16) I need a wood door deadlock cylinder pull - does the 1EG cover that?
No. The BEST 1EG is a mortise cylinder that installs into a mortise lock case. For a wood door deadlock or deadlatch application that needs a cylinder pull, the Adams Rite 4026 is a five pin tumbler cylinder pull made for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock and deadlatch.
17) What finishes does the BEST 1EG hotel cylinder come in?
Ten: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 690 statuary dark bronze. For matching a floor of existing guest room mortise trim, 626 satin chrome and 613 oil-rubbed bronze are the usual commercial pairings.
18) What is the BEST 1EG cylinder made of?
Solid brass or bronze, which is what holds up to corrosion and constant guest-key cycling in hospitality corridors and exterior-adjacent openings.
19) Is there installation documentation for the BEST 1EG cylinder?
Yes. The E Series Service Manual covers the cylinder family and is the reference for core removal, cam changes and ring stacking. The 1EG is part of the E Series Cylinders collection.
20) If I want an aged bronze interchangeable core to match existing trim, what are my options?
The Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core cylinder in C keyway and 643E aged bronze finish. The BEST 1EG is offered in ten finishes including 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed and 690 statuary dark bronze, so if you are staying on a BEST standard core system there is a bronze tone available without changing platforms.
