Dormakaba 97-J-10-00-138 SFIC Mortise Housing for 7-Pin Core - 7/16 Tapered Ring - 10 Cam - 1-3/8 Length

The Dormakaba 97J10 is the SFIC mortise housing for DORMA mortise locks and exit devices. It accepts 7-pin BEST-compatible SFIC cores and is the correct housing when converting DORMA lock hardware from conventional cylinders to an SFIC master key program.

Part Number Cross-Reference: 2100-16-10-00-138-03-02

If you arrived here searching the part number string "2100-16-10-00-138-03-02," that format corresponds to BEST Access Systems' IC housing part numbering convention. The Dormakaba 97J10 is the DORMA-platform equivalent housing that accepts the same BEST-compatible 7-pin SFIC core. Both housings accept the same core format, use a 1-3/8" length with 7/16" tapered ring and 10 cam, and are specified for facilities running BEST IC master key programs where the housing brand needs to match the lock body brand. Confirm cam and ring specifications against the lock body before ordering.

97J10 vs. 90J10: SFIC Housing vs. Conventional Cylinder

The 90J10 (also in the Dormakaba lineup) is a conventional mortise cylinder: it contains a complete keying mechanism with pins, springs, and a fixed keyway. The cylinder ships with a specific keyway (SC or SE) and is keyed at the factory. The 97J10 is a housing only: no pins, no springs, no keyway. It accepts an SFIC core as a separate component. The core contains all the keying elements and can be removed with a control key and reinstalled in any compatible housing. For facilities without an existing SFIC program, the 90J10 conventional cylinder is the correct specification. For facilities running BEST IC core master key programs, the 97J10 housing is what goes into the DORMA lock body.

IC Core Not Included

The 97J10 ships as a housing only. The 7-pin BEST-compatible IC core is ordered and managed separately through the facility's key control program.
