BEST BES-8EE7E4626-SC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a BEST 8E profile cylinder let me put a European mortise lockset on my BEST master key system?
That is exactly what the 8E Series profile utility cylinder is for. It is a Eurocylinder body that accepts BEST 3C European interchangeable cores, so a mortise lockset built for a euro profile can run on the same BEST keying system as the rest of the building. Some applications will take a BEST standard core instead, with the "E" option specified.
2) What do I need to tell you when ordering a BEST 8E euro profile cylinder?
Give the lock manufacturer name and the model number of the mortise lockset it is going into. Euro profile cylinders vary by the lock they serve, and BEST uses that information to confirm fit and core requirement. If you are ordering it keyed, also specify the keyway (A through R plus DD, TB, TC, TD and TE are the choices), and your keymark and marking number if you have an existing system to match.
3) Should I order the 8E cylinder keyed or less core?
Order Less Core if your locksmith is pinning and installing BEST 3C cores from your own stock, which is the usual choice when you already run a BEST master key system and control the cores. Order Keyed when you want the cylinder supplied with a core already keyed, and give the keyway, keymark and marking number so it drops into the existing system. Both options come in all four finishes.
4) Can I use my existing BEST small format cores in a euro profile mortise lock?
Not directly. The 8E cylinder takes BEST 3C European interchangeable cores, not the standard small format core, although some applications will accept a BEST standard core when the "E" option is specified on the order. Confirm which your lockset takes by giving the lock manufacturer and model when you order.
5) I manage a building with mixed European and US locks. Can I get them all on one key?
That is the case the 8E Series was built for. Where an opening carries an imported mortise lockset that takes a euro profile cylinder, the 8E goes into that lock and accepts a BEST 3C core keyed to the same system as your US openings, so one key set covers both. Order it in the keyway your system already uses and supply your keymark so the cores are cut to your existing hierarchy.
6) Is the 8E single cylinder or double cylinder, and which do I need?
The 8E Series profile utility cylinder is offered in both single and double cylinder configurations. A single cylinder is keyed on one side only, so use it where the inside face is a thumbturn or a free-egress lever. A double cylinder is keyed both sides, which some jurisdictions restrict on egress doors, so check your local code before specifying it.
7) Is this a whole lock or just the cylinder?
Cylinder only. The 8E is a replacement cylinder that installs into a mortise lockset you already have or are supplying separately; it does not include the lock body, trim or latch. Follow the lockset manufacturer's own installation instructions for fitting it, and BEST publishes an E Series Service Manual covering the cylinder itself.
8) 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. If you are matching existing lever trim on a commercial opening, 626 is the common commercial match and 613 the usual dark bronze match; each finish is offered both keyed and less core.
