Dormakaba E79N-2066LL-BL00-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order the E-Plex 7900 handed, or can I flip it in the field?
Order it handed, left or right, but the handing is field reversible on both the lever and the mortise body if you get it wrong or the opening changes. The two orderable choices are Left-Hand or Left-Hand Reverse and Right-Hand or Right-Hand Reverse, so a reverse-bevel opening uses the same part as its standard-bevel counterpart.
2) Is the E-Plex 7900 a keypad lock or a card reader lock?
Reader only, no pushbuttons. It is an integrated RFID reader lock that takes 125kHz proximity, MiFare, and iCLASS Legacy credentials, plus BLE mobile credentials. If your site still issues PIN codes at the door, this model will not accept them, you need a pushbutton E-Plex instead.
3) Is the E-Plex 7900 rated for a fire door and does it meet ADA?
It is ADA compliant and UL10/UL10C listed, with BHMA/ANSI Grade 1 and Florida Windstorm listings. The outside lever rotates freely up and down in locked mode, which is what keeps it ADA-legal without unlocking the door. Electronics carry FCC Part 15 Class A and CE directive 89/336/EEC compliance. For a healthcare or education spec that calls out Grade 1 plus UL10C on the egress side, this satisfies the line item.
4) What else do I need to order to get an E-Plex 7900 programmed and running?
Two things beyond the lock. A programming command card set matching the card technology of the lock you ordered, which is sold separately and is what programs every lock on that technology. And an SFIC core, since the lock ships with the Best small format prep but no core. Batteries are 4 AA alkaline. If you are going wireless you also need the gateway infrastructure; offline sites need the M-Unit handheld.
5) Is the Sargent TR-8200 an equivalent for the E-Plex 7900 on a door that needs an audit trail?
No. The Sargent TR-8200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mechanical mortise lock, and a mechanical lock records nothing about who opened the door. The E-Plex 7900 is an electronic lockset with programming and audit trail: in offline mode, programming and audit data move to and from each lock with the M-Unit handheld, and in wireless mode it works with Keyscan Aurora for real-time commands such as emergency lockdown. If the requirement on the drawing is audit or lockdown, the mechanical 8200 is not a substitute regardless of matching grade and mortise format.
6) What is a non-electronic mortise lock alternative to the E-Plex 7900 for openings that do not need credentials?
The Sargent TR-8200 mortise lock with LN round rose trim is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise lock, the same BHMA/ANSI Grade 1 level the E-Plex 7900 carries. The difference is how the door is controlled: the E-Plex 7900 is an electronic lock with an integrated RFID reader running on 4 AA alkaline batteries, with credential access and audit trail, while the Sargent 8200 Series is a keyed mechanical mortise lock with no reader and no batteries. For a back-of-house or utility opening where nobody needs to change access rights or pull an audit trail, the mechanical 8200 does the job; for openings where credentials are issued and revoked, the E-Plex 7900 is the one that supports it.
7) How many E-Plex 7900 locks can I put on one wireless gateway?
Up to 100 devices (locks or routers) per gateway, up to 8 routers per gateway, and up to 100 gateways per network. Locks and routers can sit up to 2 hops from the gateway, and each lock pings for the closest gateway or router. For a property manager scoping a multi-building rollout, that math sets how many gateways the site needs before anything gets ordered.
8) How long do the batteries last in an E-Plex 7900 and what happens when they get low?
About a year on 4 AA alkalines, based on a proximity reader at 10 openings a day. Expect less with 13.56MHz smart card readers such as MiFare or iCLASS, since those draw more. Low battery shows both on the lock itself and in the software, so a fleet running Aurora flags it before a tenant is standing at a dead door. Cold and heat move the number too.
9) Will an E-Plex 7900 hold up on an exterior door in a cold climate?
Rated from -31F to 149F (-30C to 65C) and 0 to 85 percent non-condensing humidity at 86F, so a northern exterior opening is within spec. The outside housing, levers and thumbturn are cast zinc alloy with a stainless steel inside housing, and it carries a Florida Windstorm listing. Battery life will run shorter than the rated year at the cold end.
10) Should I use a mortise or a cylindrical E-Plex 7900 on my door?
The mortise version needs a mortise pocket cut in the door edge and runs 2-3/4 inch backset with a 1-1/4 inch faceplate. The cylindrical version bores through the face and gives you a backset choice of 2-3/4 or 2-3/8 inch. If you are retrofitting doors that already have a mortise pocket, or you want the option of a thumbturn deadbolt in the same body, go mortise. If the doors are bored for a cylindrical lockset, staying cylindrical avoids re-prepping every leaf. E-Plex 7900 also comes in an exit trim application if the openings have exit devices on them.
11) What should be used instead of the E-Plex 7900 SFIC Prox mortise lock when the opening needs a deadbolt?
The E-Plex 7900 SFIC Prox mortise lock covered here is the no-deadbolt configuration. Within the E-Plex 7900 mortise range, the deadbolt version carries a 1 inch solid metal deadbolt for the ASM mortise, projected by the inside thumbturn and retracted with the latch by the interior handle, by emergency key override or by an authorized keycard. If the opening is mechanical and needs a mortise deadbolt function, a Sargent 8200 Series mortise lock is the heavy duty Grade 1 mechanical route. The latch-only E-Plex is the right pick where a closer and an electric release govern the door and a thumbturn deadbolt would defeat the free-egress and lockdown behavior.
12) Does choosing between the E-Plex 7900 and a Sargent 8200 mortise lock change the keying plan?
It changes what the key does. On a Sargent 8200 Series mortise lock the cylinder is the primary means of access for keyholders. On the E-Plex 7900 SFIC Prox, credentials are the primary means and the cylinder is an override: it takes an Ilco KIL cylinder keyed alike or keyed different with an adapter for various KIL cylinders, or a Best small format interchangeable core prep in 6 or 7 pin, with the core not included. A locksmith keying a building on Best SFIC can carry that core into the E-Plex 7900 override, but should plan the master key system around override use rather than daily entry.
13) For a facility standardizing on Grade 1 mortise locks, which of these meets a fire-rated opening spec?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 7900 mortise lock carries BHMA/ANSI Grade 1 along with UL10/UL10C, ADA compliance and Florida Windstorm, so it answers a spec that calls out a fire door assembly and an accessible opening in the same line. The Sargent TR-8200 is likewise a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock from the 8200 Series, which is the same durability tier for the mechanical openings in the same facility. A common approach is to specify the E-Plex 7900 on the doors that need credential control and door monitoring and the mechanical 8200 on the balance, keeping every opening at Grade 1.
