BEST BES-8EE7E5626-SC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I put a BEST core into a European profile mortise lock?
That's exactly what the 8E Series profile utility cylinder is for. It replaces the original profile cylinder in a European-style mortise lockset and accepts either a BEST 3C European interchangeable core or a standard BEST core with the "E" option, so a lock from an international manufacturer can be folded into an existing BEST masterkey system.
2) Should I order the BEST 8E cylinder keyed or less core?
Less core is the choice when your locksmith is pinning cores in house or pulling cores from existing stock to fold the opening into a masterkey system already running. Keyed means the cylinder ships with a core, and you then specify keyway, keymark, and marking number so it drops into the right key system. Both options are offered in every finish.
3) Will the 8E cylinder work with any brand of European mortise lock?
It is made to suit profile mortise locksets from a range of international manufacturers, but the fit is determined by the profile dimensions of your specific lockcase. That is why the order asks for the lock maker's name and model plus the A, B, and C dimensions. Supply those and the cylinder is built to that opening.
4) Which BEST keyways can the 8E utility cylinder be keyed to?
Twenty keyways are available when ordered keyed: A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, O, R, TB, TC, TD, and TE. Pick the one your building already runs so the new opening keys into the existing system rather than starting a second key family.
5) Single or double profile cylinder, which one do I need?
Double cylinder means a keyed core on both faces of the door, used where the lock must be keyed from inside as well as out. Single cylinder keys from one side only, with a thumbturn or blank on the other. The 8E Series is offered both ways; match whichever the existing lockcase was built for, since the cylinder must reach the cam from the correct side.
6) Is the 8E cylinder a whole lock or just the cylinder?
Cylinder only. It is a replacement part that drops into a mortise lockcase you already have, not a lockset. You keep the existing European lock body, trim, and latch; the 8E swaps in the keying so the door runs on BEST cores.
7) What finishes does the BEST 8E profile utility cylinder come in?
Four: 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, and 626 satin chrome. 626 is the usual match for commercial lever trim and 613 for darker residential hardware. Each finish is available keyed or less core.
8) Is there installation documentation for BEST E Series cylinders?
BEST publishes an E Series Service Manual covering core installation and integration procedure for these cylinders. Worth pulling before the crew is at the door, particularly on a first run of profile cylinders where the ring stack and center dimension have to be right the first time.
