An SFIC lock is a small format interchangeable core lock used in commercial security systems. It allows locksmiths or facility managers to quickly remove and replace the lock core using a control key without removing the entire lock hardware.
An SFIC lock cylinder is the interchangeable core inside the lock housing. It contains the pins and keyway that operate the lock. These cylinders can be swapped quickly, making them ideal for large buildings with complex master key systems.
SFIC locks are commonly used in commercial buildings, hospitals, universities, and government facilities. Their interchangeable design allows facility managers to quickly change lock access without replacing the entire lock, improving both convenience and security.
SFIC stands for Small Format Interchangeable Core and refers to a lock system that allows multiple lock cylinders to be swapped using a control key. A single SFIC system can manage hundreds or even thousands of locks within a master key system.
The cost to rekey an SFIC lock usually ranges from $15 to $40 per cylinder, depending on the locksmith, location, and complexity of the master key system. Additional costs may apply if new keys, pins, or replacement SFIC lock cylinders are required.
Decoding an SFIC lock core involves identifying the pin depths used in the lock cylinder. Locksmiths typically use specialized SFIC decoding tools to read the pin configuration. This information helps recreate keys, service the lock, or troubleshoot master key systems accurately.
SFIC lock picking requires understanding the lock’s dual shear line design. Locksmiths often use specialized picks or control tools to manipulate pins and reach the control shear line. Once aligned correctly, the core can be removed for servicing or decoding.
