Best 7KC37D14DS3626 7K Series Storeroom Lever Lockset

Product Description

The BEST 7KC37D14DS3626 is a commercial-grade storeroom lever lockset from the 7K Series, designed for applications requiring controlled, single-sided access. The storeroom function keeps the latch retracted from the exterior until a key is used, while the interior lever allows free egress at all times. This lockset ships less core, meaning it is designed to accept a BEST interchangeable core (IC) installed in the field. It features a 2-3/4 inch backset, a 7-pin core configuration, a 14-style lever handle, and a D-style rose trim. Finished in satin chrome, it is suited for commercial door hardware installations in institutional, healthcare, education, and government facilities.

The 7KC37D14DS3626 is intended for commercial interior and exterior door applications where storeroom-function security is required. The less-core configuration makes this lockset a standard choice on projects using a master key or interchangeable core system, allowing a single cylinder to be swapped across multiple locks. Installers working on new construction or retrofit projects can specify this unit alongside a compatible BEST IC core to complete the assembly. An ANSI strike is included to simplify rough-in at the door frame.

Compatibility

Designed for use with BEST interchangeable core cylinders in commercial lever lockset applications requiring a storeroom function. Specific core compatibility should be confirmed against the BEST IC core series used on the project.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware professional familiar with commercial lockset installation and BEST IC core systems. Verify door thickness, backset, and handing before installation. The less-core design requires a separately ordered BEST interchangeable core to complete the lock cylinder assembly. Follow the door hardware manufacturer guidelines and applicable building code requirements for storeroom-function hardware in the jurisdiction of the project.
