Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Corbin Russwin 564K52 plug, and is it a complete cylinder?
It's the plug only, not a cylinder. The 564K52 is an individual standard plug for the Corbin Russwin CK4429 hotel lock cylinder, so it lets you replace a worn or damaged plug without swapping the whole cylinder assembly. If you need a full keyed cylinder rather than the internal plug, this is the wrong part number.
2) Will the 564K52 plug work in a 6-pin CK4429 cylinder or only 5-pin?
Both. The 564K52 standard plug supports 5-pin and 6-pin CK4429 hotel lock configurations, so one part number covers either pinning depth when you are rekeying or servicing a hotel cylinder.
3) What does "old tailpiece keyway" mean on this CK4429 plug, and will it fit a newer hotel lock?
The 564K52 is built to the old tailpiece design used on legacy CK4429 hotel installations. That's the deciding detail: pull the existing cylinder and confirm you have the older tailpiece arrangement before ordering. If the lock uses the newer tailpiece, this plug is not the correct replacement.
4) Which Corbin Russwin keyways can I order the 564K52 plug in?
Ten keyway choices: 252, 60, 70, 750, 751, 752, 852, 981, 982 and 983. Order the plug in the same keyway family as the rest of your hotel doors so it drops into the existing master key system, and specify the keyway that your guest and master keys are already cut to.
5) Is there a cross-brand equivalent to the Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 standard plug?
No. The 564K52 252 is an individual standard plug built to Corbin Russwin specifications for the CK4429 Hotel lock series with the old tailpiece keyway, so it is a brand-specific plug rather than a generic cylinder. Other cylinders are complete assemblies tied to their own platforms - for example the BEST 1C series standard 5-pin cylinder core, or the Kaba Ilco 1539 series key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder. Those replace a cylinder or core outright; they do not drop a plug into a CK4429 hotel cylinder shell.
6) If I would rather swap the whole cylinder instead of rebuilding a plug, what should I look at?
The Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 is a replacement plug meant for targeted repair of a worn or damaged cylinder plug without replacing the full cylinder assembly. If the plan is to replace complete units instead, the comparable cylinders are sold as assemblies: the Kaba Ilco 1549 series key-in-deadbolt cylinder and the Kaba Ilco 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder, or the BEST 1CB Peaks 150 series interchangeable core cylinder if the facility runs interchangeable cores. Those are different lock platforms, so confirm the housing they are going into.
7) I need a mortise cylinder for an aluminum storefront, not a hotel lock plug - what do you carry?
The Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 is a CK4429 hotel lock plug and will not serve a storefront deadlock. For that work, the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder is a five-pin Grade 1 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 commercial mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. Adams Rite also offers cylinder pulls: the 4024 with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler with through-screws, both for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler pull for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch.
8) What finishes does the 564K52 hotel lock plug come in?
Two: 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. Both are offered across every keyway, so you can match the visible plug face to the existing trim on the door without changing keyway. Satin chrome is the common match for brushed/satin nickel-look hotel hardware; satin brass for brass trim.
9) I manage a hotel property. Can I just rekey these plugs into my existing guest and master key system?
That's what the part is for. Corbin Russwin supplies it as a standard plug for the CK4429 hotel lock, so a locksmith pins it to your existing keying in the matching keyway. Keep the keyway consistent with the other doors and the plug drops into your current master key hierarchy rather than forcing a separate key.
10) My CK4429 locks are worn out entirely. What cylinder should I look at instead of a replacement plug?
A plug swap only makes sense if the rest of the cylinder is sound. If the housings are shot, you're into a full cylinder. Among the mortise and rim cylinders ZenSupply stocks, the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder, the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway, and the Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 are 6-pin rim cylinders with vertical and horizontal tailpiece cams respectively. None of those keys into a Corbin Russwin 252-family system, so changing cylinder brand means rekeying the opening.
11) Can I use an interchangeable core instead of pinning this plug?
Not in a CK4429 hotel lock taking the 564K52 standard plug, which is a fixed plug that gets pinned by a locksmith. If you want key-removable cores so housekeeping turnover can be handled without repinning, that's a different platform, for example the BEST 1C five-pin core or the 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core, or Schlage's 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder. Going that route means changing the cylinder, not just the plug.
12) Do I need to order keys or pins separately with the 564K52 plug?
It ships as an individual standard plug, so plan on your locksmith supplying the pinning and cutting keys to your system. Some comparable cylinders come keyed with cut keys included, for example the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder, which is supplied keyed different with two cut keys, and the Schlage 20-021 rim cylinder, supplied with two keys. The 564K52 is the component, not a keyed assembly.
13) We are standardizing a property on interchangeable cores rather than servicing hotel plugs - what is the alternative?
The Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 plug keeps an existing CK4429 hotel cylinder in service and is keyed as a 5-pin or 6-pin plug. A rekeyable-by-core approach uses a different family: the BEST 1CB Peaks 150 series interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass 150 series, or Schlage full size interchangeable core products such as the 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder and the 20-057-C FSIC core in C keyway, 643E aged bronze. Standardizing on cores changes the lock prep, so verify the existing housings accept FSIC before committing a fleet.
14) Will a rim cylinder work in place of the 564K52 252?
No. The 564K52 252 is a plug for the CK4429 Hotel lock cylinder with the old tailpiece keyway, not a cylinder body. Rim cylinders such as the Schlage 20-021 6-pin rim cylinder with vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 6-pin rim cylinder with horizontal tailpiece cam mount behind a rim device and are selected by cam orientation. The Medeco 1065244 5-pin lazy motion rim cylinder with Emtek tailpiece and the Medeco 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder are likewise rim units for handlesets and deadbolts.
15) Is the 564K52 252 plug interchangeable with a key-in-lever cylinder from another maker?
No. The Corbin Russwin 564K52 252 is a plug for the CK4429 Hotel cylinder and is ordered by keyway, with 252, 60, 70, 750, 751, 752, 852, 981, 982 and 983 keyways offered in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. Key-in-lever cylinders are separate assemblies with their own keyways - the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key in lever cylinder in the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different with two cut keys, and the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent locks. They fit their own lock bodies, not a CK4429 hotel cylinder.
16) Is the 564K52 a residential part or rated for commercial use?
Commercial. It's an authentic Corbin Russwin cylinder part intended for commercial door hardware service, and it shows up most in hotels and extended-stay, multi-family, healthcare, education and government maintenance programs where CK4429 hotel locks are already installed.
