Hello folks. Just received this PL4000 and the keys are bitted at 0 I believe. Can anyone advise on how to remove the core to get it rekeyed? Any info is greatly appreciated.

Is there a screw in the shackle hole? If not it might be a LFIC.

How many pins are in there? Take a pick and count. If there are 7 it is a LFIC

6 cuts. No screw. SFIC you think?

Ah ok just found out it's an IC core indeed.

No, actually count the pins with a pick. A Schlage LFIC control key is a longer blank with a 7th cut on it.

It is not SFIC, the top and bottom are different sizes.

And you posted as I did.

If you pick the pins then push up the 7th pin a bit while turning CW (there will be heavy tension from the control lug) you should be able to get it out.

Awesome thank you very very much. Indeed there is 7 pins. I'll try and get the bugger out. Thanks again!

One day I won't be such a noob. Just not today lol

It's an LFIC, MrAnybody and myself both have them.
PM me, I have some control blanks if you want to get the core out and then rekey it.

For my own knowledge... Is this a lock that's not been keyed before? And will a blank be the control key if not ever been keyed?

On a Schlage LFIC, the bitting of the change key is the same as the control key, except that there is a tip bitting (always cut to a 6 depth.

Jeffmoss26 has offered to send blanks. If you are going to rekey you might want to watch a video and see how they come apart. It would just make it a lot easier to see it once.

Great info guys. Mossman I will send you a message when my little one naps. She is almost out. MCD5150 good idea.

As the lock stands now, the control key is 0 bitted with a fixed cut of 7 on the tip.

I think it's 1 bitted, and what keyway is that ?
