Accentra 2153 GA 626 118 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra 2153 mortise cylinder work in my Yale or Sargent mortise lock?
The 2153 is built with the Yale/Sargent cam, so it drops into mortise lock bodies that take that cam. It is a conventional (not interchangeable core) 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder, 6-pin. If your lock body takes a different cam standard, say a Schlage L cam, this is the wrong cylinder for it.
2) What length mortise cylinder do I need for a standard commercial mortise lock, and is 1-1/8 inch the right one?
1-1/8 inch is the standard mortise cylinder length for a typical commercial mortise lock on a 1-3/4 inch door, and that is what the Accentra 2153 is. Longer cylinders (1-1/4, 1-1/2 inch) are used when the trim or door prep sets the cylinder further back. Measure from the face of the trim to the cam before ordering a longer one.
3) Which keyway do I order so the 2153 cylinder works on my existing master key system?
Order the keyway that matches the system already in the building. The 2153 comes in GA, GB, GC, GD, GE, GF, GG and GH; SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG and SH; TA, TB, TC, TD, TE, TF, TG and TH; plus PARA. A cylinder in the wrong keyway will not accept your existing keys, so pull an existing cylinder and read the keyway stamp before you order.
4) Can I use the 2153 cylinder in an Accentra or Yale exit device trim?
Yes, that is its main use. The 2153 is intended for Accentra/Yale mortise exit device trim, where the cylinder mounts in the trim and turns the cam that retracts the latch. It is a cylinder only, so the trim and the device itself are separate orders.
5) Do I need a mortise cylinder or a rim cylinder for my exit device?
It depends on the device. A rim device takes a rim cylinder with a tailpiece; a mortise exit device, or mortise trim, takes a threaded mortise cylinder with a cam like the 2153. If yours is a rim device, look instead at rim cylinders such as the Schlage 20-021 (vertical tailpiece cam) or 20-022 (horizontal tailpiece cam), or the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. Threading a mortise cylinder into a rim device is not possible.
6) Can I put an interchangeable core in place of the 2153 so my locksmith can rekey doors without pulling cylinders?
Not with the 2153 itself, which is a conventional cylinder that has to come out of the lock to be rekeyed. If you want core-swap rekeying across a facility, go to an interchangeable core product instead: BEST carries the 1CB Peaks 150 Series IC cylinder and the 1CDF drill resistant patented 7-pin core, and Corbin Russwin has the 1080 Grade 1 LFIC mortise cylinder at 1-1/2 inch length. Note the Corbin 1080 uses an A01 Schlage L cam for Schlage L9000 mortise locks, not the Yale/Sargent cam.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Accentra 2153 mortise cylinder if the opening needs a Schlage C keyway instead of a Yale or Sargent keyway?
The Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder built around the Schlage C keyway, so it matches the 2153 on length and pin count while keying into a Schlage C system. The Accentra 2153 is a 1-1/8 inch conventional 6-pin mortise cylinder supplied in Yale GA through GH, Sargent SB through SH, TA through TH and PARA keyways with a Yale/Sargent cam. Pick by which master key system the building already runs: a facility standardized on Schlage C keys takes the MC65, a Yale or Sargent system takes the 2153.
8) Which mortise cylinder should I order for a Schlage L9000 mortise lock rather than the Accentra 2153?
The Corbin Russwin 1080 is a 1-1/2 inch Grade 1 6-pin LFIC mortise cylinder built for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with an A01 Schlage L cam. The Accentra 2153 uses a Yale/Sargent cam and is intended for Accentra/Yale mortise exit device trim, so its cam will not drive an L9000 hub. Cam shape, not thread length, is what decides this one.
9) What mortise cylinder works if the mortise lock needs a straight cam or a cloverleaf cam?
The Corbin Russwin 1000 is a Grade 1 mortise cylinder in 1-1/2 inch length with an A02 straight cam, and the Corbin Russwin 1070 is a Grade 1 6-pin mortise housing in 1-1/4 inch length with an A01 cloverleaf cam. The Accentra 2153 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin cylinder with the Yale/Sargent cam. Confirm the cam profile against the lock body before ordering, since the same cylinder body accepts different cams and only one will engage the lock's retractor.
10) Is a rim cylinder like the Schlage 20-021 a substitute for the Accentra 2153?
No. The Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 are 6-pin rim cylinders driven by a tailpiece, vertical on the 20-021 and horizontal on the 20-022, and they mount through the door face behind a rim exit device. The Accentra 2153 is a threaded conventional mortise cylinder that screws into a mortise lock body and turns a Yale/Sargent cam. The two share pin count and nothing else mechanically. Order the rim cylinder for a rim device and the mortise cylinder for mortise exit device trim.
11) What is the alternative if the opening is a narrow stile aluminum door with an Adams Rite deadlock rather than a mortise exit device?
The Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, sized for the shallow prep on narrow stile aluminum doors, and the Adams Rite 4024 and 4025 are cylinder pulls made for the MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch. The Accentra 2153 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder for Accentra/Yale mortise exit device trim. Aluminum storefront work generally goes to the Adams Rite parts; hollow metal and wood doors carrying Yale mortise exit trim take the 2153.
12) What finishes does the Accentra 2153 mortise cylinder come in, and which one matches my existing hardware?
Three finishes: 606 satin brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, and 626 satin chrome. 626 is the common commercial match for the aluminum and chrome trim on most modern openings, 606 for brass hardware, and 613E for dark bronze storefront and entry sets. Cylinder faces sit right at the trim, so a mismatch shows.
13) Is a 6-pin cylinder better than a 5-pin for a commercial building?
Six pins give you more distinct key changes and more master keying levels than five, which matters once you are keying a whole facility rather than a handful of doors. The 2153 is 6-pin. For comparison, ZenSupply carries 5-pin cylinders like the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder and the BEST 1C standard 5-pin core, which are fine on small standalone systems but give you less room to expand a master key hierarchy.
14) Is the Accentra 2153 the same cylinder I used to buy under the Yale Commercial name?
Yes. Accentra is ASSA ABLOY's new name for what was Yale Commercial, and the product design and quality carry over through the rebrand. The 2153 still uses the Yale/Sargent cam and the Yale keyway families, so it keys and fits the same way your older Yale cylinders did.
15) Do I need to worry about handing when replacing a mortise cylinder?
No. A mortise cylinder threads in and drives a cam, so there is no left or right hand to it. What does need to match is the cam: the 2153 uses the Yale/Sargent cam, and cam orientation should be noted as you pull the old cylinder so the new one goes back the same way, along with any shims or spacers that were behind it.
16) We want to rekey doors without pulling cylinders. What should we use instead of the Accentra 2153?
Interchangeable core cylinders let a control key pull the core for rekeying in place. The Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam, the 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core in the C keyway with a 643E aged bronze finish, and the BEST 1CB is a 150 series interchangeable core cylinder. The Accentra 2153 is a conventional cylinder, so rekeying means repinning the cylinder itself. On a large door count the interchangeable core route changes how much labor a rekey costs; on a handful of doors the conventional cylinder keeps the hardware simpler.
17) Does a Kaba Ilco 1579 replace an Accentra 2153 on a Sargent opening?
No, they serve different lock types even though both touch Sargent systems. The Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, meaning it drops into the knob or lever of a cylindrical lockset. The Accentra 2153 is a mortise cylinder that threads into a mortise lock body and drives a Yale/Sargent cam. Match the cylinder to the lock chassis first: cylindrical knob or lever takes the 1579, a mortise body takes the 2153.
18) Is a five-pin cylinder acceptable where an Accentra 2153 is specified?
Only if the key system is five-pin. The Accentra 2153 is a 6-pin cylinder, and six-pin and five-pin cylinders will not operate off the same key unless the system was cut for it. Adams Rite 4036 and the BEST 1C are five-pin, and the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented interchangeable core in 7-pin brass. Order to the pin count of the existing master key system rather than to the higher number.
19) Can I use a Medeco retrofit cylinder in place of the Accentra 2153?
Those Medeco parts target residential-style hardware, not commercial mortise locks. The Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handlesets and deadbolts, and the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. The Accentra 2153 is a commercial 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder with a Yale/Sargent cam for mortise exit device trim. A deadbolt or handleset retrofit will not thread into a mortise lock body.
20) Our exit devices are rim style with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. What do we order instead of the Accentra 2153?
The Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece, which is the format a rim exit device chassis accepts. The Accentra 2153 is a threaded mortise cylinder with a Yale/Sargent cam for mortise exit device trim. Rim devices and mortise devices take different cylinder formats, so check which device is on the door before ordering either.
21) I am standardizing cylinders across a building. Can I order all 72 combinations of the 2153, or do I have to pick one?
Pick the combination that matches your system: one of three finishes (606, 613E, 626) and one of 24 keyways in the G, S, T and PARA families. For a facility standard, most buyers settle on 626 satin chrome and a single keyway so every cylinder in the building is interchangeable and one master key covers it.
22) What matches an Accentra 2153 in satin chrome on a door that also needs a dummy cylinder for the inactive leaf?
The BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder, 1-5/32 inch diameter, fills a cylinder hole without a working key mechanism, which is what an inactive leaf or a pull-side trim usually needs. The Accentra 2153 is a keyed 6-pin mortise cylinder offered in 606 satin brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent and 626 satin chrome, so the working leaf and the dummy can be specified to read the same across the pair of doors.
23) Is a key-in-lever cylinder such as the Falcon A23161-05 G interchangeable with the Accentra 2153?
No. The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, supplied keyed different with two cut keys, and it seats inside a lever lockset. The Accentra 2153 is a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder that threads into a mortise lock body and turns a Yale/Sargent cam. Both are 6-pin, which is why they get confused, but the body and drive are different parts of the door.
