Technical Information

Can an SFIC be rekeyed for a new control key?

Yes. SFIC cores can be rekeyed for a new control key, but it must be done using the proper control keying components for the system.

Troubleshooting & Support

How do you remove an SFIC core?

An SFIC (Small Format Interchangeable Core) is typically removed using a control key designed for that specific lock system. Insert the control key into the core, rotate it to the control position, and the core will align to the removal position. Once aligned, the core can be pulled out of the housing.

If a control key is not available, the core generally cannot be safely removed without proper authorization or tools, as SFIC systems are designed for controlled access and security. Always ensure you are using the correct key system and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for your specific lock hardware.

Other
