Description
PinCalc is a simple pin chart calculator from Balsa Software for most inline and small form interchangeable core lock hardware.
PinCalc can be configure to handle almost any inline or SFIC system, and comes with the following easy to use presets: - Arrow - Corbin/Russwin K Class - Corbin/Russwin System 70 - Corbin/Russwin System 70 IC - Schlage 6Pin - Kwikset - Lockwood Australia (6 pin) - Ruko/Assa 600 - Sargent - Best A2 - Best A3 - Best A4
But if the system you are working with is not there, the setting can be changed quickly. Handles from 4 to 9 chambers and up to 36 depths. For SFIC, the stack height can range from 10 to 30.
Many keys can be added for consideration when calculating the pinning chart, inline requires at leased one, while interchangeable core requires the Top Master and the Control keys.
The app can easily switch between light and dark themes to provide the best clarity in most working environments.
This is an extremely flexible pinning chart calculator, and forms part of the collection of locksmith software created by Balsa.

Doesn't really get better than this. Straight, to-the-point pinning app. Would be nice if there were more options for key depths especially for Corbin Russ win. But otherwise. Great app. Every lock.ith should have.
