Accentra RN117-GA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which keyway do I order for an Accentra RN117 control key blank?
The RN117 is stocked in 18 keyways: GA, GB, GC, GE, GG, PARA, SC, SD, SE, SF, TA, TB, TC, TD, TE, TF, TG and TH. The blank has to match the keyway of the cores it will service, or it won't enter the plug at all. Read the keyway off an existing key or off the core face, or take it from your keying schedule, and order that letter. A control key in the wrong keyway is a blank you cannot use.
2) Will a 7-pin control key blank work on a 6-pin cylinder?
No. The RN117 is a 7-pin blank and belongs with 7-pin cores. Pin count is a system-level decision, so a 6-pin core needs a 6-pin control blank. If you are mixing pin counts across a building, keep the two control keys tagged separately, because they look alike in a pouch and only one of them will pull a given core.
3) What is the equivalent of the Accentra RN117 control key blank in the Kwikset line?
Kwikset's control key blank is the 81804-001, sold as a part/component for Kwikset cylinders. Both the Accentra RN117 and the Kwikset 81804-001 are control key blanks, meaning they are cut to operate the control function of a cylinder rather than to throw the lock. The difference that governs the order is the system they belong to: the RN117 is a 7-pin control key blank with .51 pin tumbler geometry supplied in Accentra keyways, offered in GA, GB, GC, GE, GG, PARA, SC, SD, SE, SF, TA, TB, TC, TD, TE, TF, TG and TH. Control key blanks are not cross-brand interchangeable, so a locksmith servicing Accentra cylindrical hardware cuts the RN117 in the matching keyway, and one servicing Kwikset cylinders uses the 81804-001.
4) Can a Schlage C key blank be used in place of an Accentra 7-pin control key blank?
No. The Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC is a key blank for the Schlage C keyway, and a Schlage C blank will not enter an Accentra keyway. Beyond the keyway, the two blanks do different jobs: the MS4-KEYBLKC is an operating key blank, while the RN117 is a control key blank cut to the control function of a 7-pin cylinder with .51 pin tumbler geometry. If the cylinders being serviced are Accentra, the RN117 is ordered in the matching Accentra keyway, from GA, GB, GC, GE, GG, PARA, SC, SD, SE, SF, TA, TB, TC, TD, TE, TF, TG or TH. A Schlage C blank such as the MS4-KEYBLKC belongs with Schlage C keyway cylinders.
5) Does the Accentra RN117 come already cut, or do I have to cut it?
It ships as a blank. The RN117 carries the .51 pin tumbler specification and is ready for cutting on standard key machines, so a locksmith cuts the control combination for your system on it. If nobody in-house cuts keys, plan on a locksmith or your keying supplier to originate it before it is any use.
6) How many control key blanks should a property manager order for a building rekey?
Control keys are held tightly, not distributed. For most facilities that means one cut control key for the person doing core swaps and one spare locked away, so buy the RN117 blanks in the single keyway your cores use rather than one of each. Because it removes cores, anyone holding a cut control key can pull and replace a core anywhere in that system, which is why it does not go on the maintenance ring with the operating keys.
7) Is the RN117 blank suitable for a masterkeyed system in a school or hospital?
Yes, that is what the 7-pin format is there for. The extra chamber gives more room for master and grand master levels than a 6-pin system, and the RN117 is a commercial-rated part used in office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, industrial sites, multi-tenant residential and government facilities. Standardize on one keyway family across the campus and the same control key services every core in it.
8) What is the difference between a control key blank and a builder key like the Kwikset 83559-008?
Different jobs entirely. The RN117 control key blank is for pulling and setting interchangeable cores in Accentra cylindrical locks. A builder key, such as the Kwikset 83559-008 large bow 6-pin builder key, is a construction key that gets voided once the permanent key is used, so the trades lose access at turnover. If your problem is contractor access during the build, a builder key is the part; if it is rekeying by swapping cores, the control key is.
9) Is a builder key blank the same thing as a control key blank?
No, and confusing the two is a common ordering error. A builder key blank such as the Kwikset 83559-008 large bow builder key, a 6-pin blank, is cut for construction keying, where the key operates the lock during the build and is later voided. A control key blank such as the Accentra RN117 is cut to the control function of the cylinder, which is what a locksmith uses to service the cylinder rather than to open the door. The RN117 is a 7-pin blank with .51 pin tumbler geometry supplied across Accentra keyways including GA, GB, GC, PARA, SC, TA and TH. If the job is servicing cylinders in a commercial keying system, the control blank is the one to cut.
10) We standardize on 6-pin residential cylinders. Is the Accentra RN117 the right blank, or is there a simpler option?
The RN117 is a 7-pin blank, cut for control function in commercial cylindrical lock applications, so it suits facilities running 7-pin Accentra cylinders in a master keyed system. For 6-pin knob and deadbolt cylinders, Kwikset lists the 87615-001 6-pin blank for knobs and deadbolts, and the 88485-005 blank for knobs and deadbolts in the Schlage keyway. Those are the blanks that match a 6-pin knob and deadbolt program. Choose by the cylinder already in the door: 7-pin Accentra control work takes the RN117 in the correct Accentra keyway, while a 6-pin knob and deadbolt fleet takes the corresponding 6-pin blank.
11) Where do I find the control key cut and keyway details for an Accentra keying system?
Accentra publishes the cylinder and keying details, including keyway families, in the ASSA ABLOY Accentra Cylinders and Keys catalog, which is linked from the RN117 product record. Pair that with your own keying schedule from the original system setup, since the control combination itself is specific to your system and is not printed on the blank.
