BEST ED212 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the BEST ED212 tool actually do?
The ED212 is a hand tool for attaching cams to BEST mortise cylinders. It holds and positions the cam so it seats correctly on the cylinder during assembly, which is the step you hit whenever you swap a cylinder in a mortise lock body. It is a service tool, not a lock part, so nothing about it goes into the door.
2) Does the ED212 cam tool work with adaptation cams or only standard BEST cams?
Both. The ED212 handles standard cams and adaptation cams equally, so a locksmith carrying one tool covers straight BEST cylinder work and the adaptation-cam jobs where a BEST replacement cylinder is going into a lock body that originally took another manufacturer's cylinder.
3) Can I use the ED212 to rekey masterkeyed mortise locks without replacing the whole lockset?
That is the point of it. Fitting a BEST replacement cylinder lets you relock a masterkeyed mortise lockset, and the ED212 is what gets the correct cam onto that replacement cylinder. For a property manager or facility locksmith rotating a master system, the lock bodies stay in the doors and only the cylinders change.
4) Is the ED212 specific to BEST cylinders or will it work on other brands' mortise cylinders?
BEST mortise cylinders are what the ED212 is built around, within the BEST ED Series service equipment line. Treat it as a BEST-system tool. Where it touches other manufacturers' hardware is through adaptation cams, which let a BEST replacement cylinder go into a lock body that was not originally BEST.
5) Does the BEST ED212 come with cams or cylinders?
No. The ED212 is the assembly tool by itself. The mortise cylinders, the cams (standard or adaptation), and any keying work are ordered separately. Spec the cam to the lock body you are servicing, then use the tool to fit it.
6) Do I need the ED212 tool if I am only installing one BEST mortise cylinder?
For a single cylinder swap you can often get the cam on by hand, but the ED212 exists because hand-fitting is where cams get cross-seated. If you service BEST mortise cylinders regularly, or you are converting a masterkeyed system across a building, it pays for itself in repeat use. One-off residential-style jobs are the case where you may skip it.
7) Where can I find BEST's own documentation for the ED212 and the rest of the service equipment?
BEST publishes the D Series catalog covering its service equipment, and it lists the ED Series tooling alongside the cylinders and cams those tools work on. That is the sheet to check when you are matching a cam type to a specific lock body before ordering.
