BEST A2 SFIC
on Keyzee.

BEST A2 is the dominant Small Format Interchangeable Core platform in North American institutional facilities. Seven pin chambers with two shear lines per cylinder — one for the operating key, one for the control key that swaps the core without disassembling the lockset. The A2 keyway has wider depth-stack tolerances than the legacy A keyway it replaced.

What Keyzee does for BEST A2 SFIC

BEST A2 SFIC is a first-class profile in the engine — the same TMK optimiser, phantom scan, MACS validation and export pipeline runs against BEST A2 SFIC cylinders as against any other. No add-on, no separate licence.

Factory MACS + depth specs shipped

BEST A2 SFIC's MACS, increment table, and pin-stack constraints are built in. Every TMK candidate is validated before grading.

Phantom scan, exhaustive

Up to 50,000 shear-line combos per BEST A2 SFIC cylinder, run against the full access matrix. Critical / high / medium classified inline.

Code-machine exports

BEST A2 SFIC cuts ship as InstaCode (.ick), Genericode (.gcd), Silca KD (.skd), CSV and PDF — directly into Silca Futura, HPC CodeMax or Framon.

Restricted-keyway handover

Every BEST A2 SFIC system exports a compliance handover record — system ID, signatories, your locksmith licence, full key register, customer signature block.
