BEST 9KW Series Grade 1 Electromechanical Cylindrical Lock with Request to Exit Sensor

Professional Electromechanical Access Control Solution

The BEST 9KW Series electromechanical cylindrical lock delivers Grade 1 commercial security with remote electronic control capabilities. This fail-secure unit operates on 24VDC at 0.18 amps and features an integrated request-to-exit sensor positioned inside the lock trim. Designed for doors 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" thick with 2-3/4" backset, the lock includes an embedded Intelligent System Controller (ISC) secured behind the escutcheon and meets ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1 standards.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Grade 1 Commercial Construction: Lock chassis meets ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1 requirements for heavy-duty commercial applications and demanding environments.
  • Dual Voltage Operation: 24VDC at 0.18 amps or 12VDC at 0.50 amps when used with supplied Temperature Control Module (TCM) for flexible power system integration.
  • Fail-Secure Operation: Electrically unlocked configuration provides secure locking when power is lost, ideal for high-security applications requiring controlled access.
  • Integrated Request-to-Exit Sensor: Built-in sensor positioned inside lock trim eliminates need for separate exit devices and streamlines installation.
  • Intelligent System Controller: Embedded ISC behind escutcheon provides secure, tamper-resistant control while remaining out of sight for clean aesthetics.
  • Non-Handed Installation: Universal lever design allows for easy installation on both left-hand and right-hand doors without field modifications.
  • Fire-Rated Compliance: UL listed for GYQS electrically-controlled single point locks for use on 3-hour A label single doors up to 4' x 10' for both U.S. and Canadian applications.
  • Temperature Control Module: Standard TCM and connector supplied with every order ensures reliable operation across temperature variations.

BEST 9KW37DEU14DS3626RQE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the BEST 9KW electromechanical lock fit a 2-inch thick door?
Yes. The 9KW Series standard lock configuration covers doors from 1-3/4 inches up to 2-1/4 inches thick, so a 2 inch door is within range. Door prep needs a 2-3/4 inch backset. If your openings are 1-3/8 inch interior doors, this is not the right chassis for them.
2) What happens to the BEST 9KW lock when the power drops?
It locks. The 9KW is a fail-secure unit, electrically unlocked, so losing power leaves the outside lever secured. The inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. If your opening is on a fire alarm release or a stair door that has to unlock on power loss, you want the fail-safe (EL, electrically locked) version instead, not this one.
3) Do I need a separate request-to-exit device with this BEST lock?
No. The request-to-exit sensor is built into the lock trim on the RQE package, so the REX signal comes off the lock itself rather than a motion sensor above the door or a REX contact in the exit device. That saves a run of wire and a ceiling-mounted sensor on each opening.
4) What power supply do I need for a BEST 9KW W Series lock?
Plan on 24 volts AC/DC at 0.18 amps, or 12 volts AC/DC at 0.50 amps. Either way the Temperature Control Module is mandatory: all W-series locks require a TCM, and a TCM plus connector ships standard with every order. Size your power supply off the amp draw per opening, not per door count alone.
5) Can I use this electrified lock on a fire-rated door?
Yes. The 9KW is UL listed under GYQS for electrically-controlled singlepoint locks, good on 3-hour A label single doors up to 4 ft by 10 ft, U.S. and Canadian. It also carries California State Fire Marshal approval under section 13144.1 and New York City BSA acceptance under calendar number 730-89-SA. That combination is what most healthcare and school specs are looking for.
6) Do I have to order the BEST 9KW handed for left or right doors?
No handing to specify. The 9KW lever is non-handed, so the same lock goes on a left-hand or right-hand door with no field modification. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one part number covers every swing.
7) Is a BEST 9KW cylindrical lock strong enough for a high-traffic commercial entry?
It is built for that. The chassis meets ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1, the top commercial grade for bored locks, and it is rated heavy duty with corrosion-treated steel construction. Grade 1 is what most institutional, government and healthcare specs call for on main traffic doors.
8) What lever and rose options do I pick when ordering the BEST 9KW?
Three lever styles: curved with return, curved without return, and contour with angle return. All are supplied on the D rose, a 3-1/2 inch convex rose, in 626 satin chrome with the 2-3/4 inch backset and the RQE request-to-exit package. Pick the lever to match the trim already on your other openings; the rose footprint is the same across all three.
9) Is the BEST 9KW keyed, and does it take a cylinder?
Yes, it is a keyed single-cylinder lockset, so the outside lever can be operated mechanically with a key as well as electrically by the access control system. That matters for override during a power or head-end failure on a fail-secure opening.
10) Where does the controller for this BEST electrified lock mount, in the door or in a panel?
In the door. An Intelligent System Controller is embedded behind the escutcheon on the 9KW, so there is no separate control board to find wall space for and nothing exposed on the door face to tamper with. Your rough-in is the lock prep plus a wire path through the hinge edge for power.
