Best 8T27KSTK626 8T Series Single Cylinder Deadbolt Satin Chrome

Product Description

The BEST 8T27KSTK626 is a single cylinder deadbolt from the 8T Series, designed for commercial and institutional door hardware applications. It features a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 7-pin cylinder configuration sold less core, meaning it accepts an interchangeable core (IC) for use with BEST IC masterkey and access control systems. A standard strike plate is included. The satin chrome finish (626) provides a clean, professional appearance suited to high-traffic commercial environments. Licensed locksmiths and commercial door hardware technicians are the primary installers for this product.

This deadbolt is intended for commercial doors where an interchangeable core system is in use. The less-core configuration allows facilities managers and locksmiths to install their existing BEST cores, making it well-suited for large facilities, institutional buildings, schools, and government properties that rely on centralized masterkey or access control programs. The standard strike included is compatible with typical commercial door frame preparations.
