Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the BL in 253K66 BL mean for keying?
BL is the Corbin Russwin keyway profile the plug is cut for. Your existing keys only work if they're BL section. If the building is keyed on a different Corbin Russwin section, ordering BL puts a plug in that your master key system won't operate.
2) Is a mortise cylinder a substitute for the Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL rim cylinder plug?
No. The 253K66 BL is a rim cylinder plug for 3000 Series rim cylinder assemblies, which mount through the door and drive a tailpiece. Mortise cylinders thread into a mortise lock body instead and are a different prep: the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder in the 4036 Series with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, and the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. Neither will serve a rim cylinder opening.
3) If the whole Corbin Russwin rim cylinder is worn out rather than just the plug, what complete rim cylinder can be used instead?
The Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL is a 3000 Series rim cylinder plug, a replacement part meant to service an existing rim cylinder assembly. When the housing itself needs replacing, a complete unit is the right buy: the Schlage Commercial 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam supplied with 2 keys, and the Schlage 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam and 2 keys. Confirm which cam orientation the exit device or lock requires before ordering.
4) What should be used instead of a keyed rim cylinder plug when the opening needs a core that can be swapped without disassembly?
The Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL plug is keyed within the 3000 Series rim cylinder platform and is serviced by the locksmith at the cylinder. If key control by core swap is the goal, interchangeable-core products are the alternative: the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam and 2 keys, the Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core cylinder in the C keyway with a 643E Aged Bronze finish, and the BEST 1CB is a 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder.
5) I need a whole rim cylinder for an exit device, not a plug. What else could I use?
For a complete rim cylinder, Schlage's commercial 20-021 (6-pin, vertical tailpiece cam, 2 keys) and 20-022 (same but horizontal cam) are rim cylinders supplied whole. If your facility runs interchangeable core, the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. The Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL is a plug only and will not substitute for any of those.
6) Can I use this plug to rekey a Corbin Russwin rim cylinder instead of replacing the whole cylinder?
That's the intended use. Swapping in the 253K66 BL plug lets you rekey or restore a 3000 Series rim cylinder without pulling and replacing the entire assembly, which keeps the existing housing, ring, and cam on the door.
7) Our building standardized on interchangeable core. Is this plug the right direction?
No. The 253K66 BL is a conventional rim cylinder plug for Corbin Russwin 3000 Series housings, not an IC core. For interchangeable core standardization, look at small format cores like the BEST 1C Series 5-pin core or the 1CB Peaks 150 Series core, or a full size IC rim cylinder such as the Schlage 20-057.
8) What is the equivalent part when the cylinder being serviced is a knob or lever cylinder rather than a rim cylinder?
The Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL serves rim cylinder assemblies only. Key-in-knob and key-in-lever openings take a different cylinder body: the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent locks, the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different, supplied with 2 cut keys.
9) Does the Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL work in an Adams Rite MS1847 cylinder pull opening?
No. The 253K66 BL is a 3000 Series Corbin Russwin rim cylinder plug and is keyed to the BL keyway. Adams Rite cylinder pulls are their own assemblies: the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws are both for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch. Order by the Adams Rite lock the pull is mounting to.
10) Is this a residential or commercial cylinder part?
Commercial. Corbin Russwin lists the 253K66 BL plug as a commercial-grade cylinder part, used in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, government buildings, multi-tenant residential, and warehouse facilities.
11) What goes in a rim opening that needs the look of a cylinder but no keyed function?
The Corbin Russwin 253K66 BL is a functioning keyed plug for 3000 Series rim cylinders. Where an opening needs the appearance only, the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills the hole without keyed operation. Use the 253K66 BL where the rim cylinder must actually operate.
