Corbin Russwin 564K53 57C1 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 564K53 plug work with my existing Corbin Russwin keys?
Only if your system runs the 57C keyway. The plug is supplied in the 57C keyway family, ordered as C1 or C2, so the key blank and keyway of the plug must match the keyway your existing keys are cut on. A plug in the wrong keyway will not accept your keys no matter how it is pinned.
2) What do I have to specify when ordering the Corbin Russwin 564K53 plug?
Two choices: keyway and finish. Keyway is C1 or C2, and finish is 606 Satin Brass or 626 Satin Chrome. Match the finish to the visible face of the cylinder already in the door so the repair is not obvious, and match the keyway to your existing key system.
3) Is the 564K53 a complete cylinder or just the plug?
Just the plug, the rotating keyed core that sits inside the cylinder shell. It is sold as a replacement part for servicing Corbin Russwin cylinders, not as a whole mortise or rim cylinder. If your cylinder shell or housing is damaged, a plug alone will not fix the opening.
4) If a Corbin Russwin CK4400 cylinder is worn beyond rekeying, what complete replacement cylinder can be used instead of a 564K53 plug?
The Corbin Russwin 564K53 is only the plug - the keyed core component rebuilt into an existing CK4400, CK4455 or CK4482 cylinder. If the cylinder housing itself is damaged, a full key-in-knob or key-in-lever replacement cylinder is the path instead. The Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, and the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder in the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway supplied keyed different with two cut keys. Those replace the whole cylinder rather than restoring the original one, so existing 57C keys will not carry over unless the new cylinder is keyed to match.
5) Can a BEST interchangeable core be used in place of a Corbin Russwin 564K53 plug?
No. The 564K53 is an individual X Class plug that goes inside an existing Corbin Russwin cylinder and is cut to the 57C keyway. BEST interchangeable cores such as the 1C5 standard 5-pin core, the Peaks 1CB 150 Series core, or the drill-resistant 1CDF 7-pin brass core are figure-eight cores that drop into BEST-format housings and are not a plug for a CK4400 series cylinder. Choosing a BEST core means converting the opening to an interchangeable-core housing rather than servicing the Corbin Russwin cylinder in place.
6) What should I order instead of the 564K53 for a rim exit device rather than a CK4400 lockset?
The 564K53 plug serves Corbin Russwin CK4400, CK4455 and CK4482 cylinders and is a bored-lock cylinder component, not a rim cylinder. For a rim application, the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and two keys, and the 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam. If the facility is standardized on full-size interchangeable cores, the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. Confirm which cam orientation the exit device requires before ordering.
7) Can the 564K53 be pinned as a 5-pin or a 6-pin?
Both. It is a 5 and 6-pin individual X Class plug, so a locksmith can pin it to suit either arrangement when rekeying a compatible CK4400 series cylinder. That matters when you are bringing a legacy 5-pin opening into a 6-pin masterkey system.
8) I need an interchangeable core instead of a fixed plug. What are my options?
An X Class plug like the 564K53 is a fixed plug that must be pinned and installed into the cylinder body, not a core you swap by hand. If you want field-swappable cores across a facility, look at interchangeable core products such as the BEST 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core or the Schlage 20-057 full size interchangeable core rim cylinder. Those are a different keying platform, so moving to them means rekeying the openings, not just dropping in a part.
9) For a CK4429 Hotel lock, what cylinder option works if the 564K53 does not fit?
The Corbin Russwin 564K53 X Class plug is specified for CK4400, CK4455 and CK4482 models made before 8/93 and is expressly not compatible with the CK4429 Hotel variant. For a knob or lever cylinder replacement outside that CK4400 compatibility window, the Kaba Ilco 1539 universal key-in-knob/lever cylinder and the Kaba Ilco 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder are aftermarket cylinders rather than plugs, so they are fitted as complete cylinders and keyed on their own keyway rather than to an existing 57C key system.
10) Is a mortise cylinder like the Adams Rite 4036 an alternative to the Corbin Russwin 564K53?
They serve different preps. The 564K53 is a plug for existing Corbin Russwin CK4400 series cylinders with the 57C keyway. 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 with a Schlage C keyway. A mortise cylinder threads into a mortise lock or deadlock body, so it applies when the door carries mortise hardware rather than a CK4400 bored lockset.
11) What is the difference between the 564K53 plug and a Medeco retrofit cylinder?
The 564K53 is a genuine Corbin Russwin X Class plug that supports 5-pin and 6-pin arrangements and restores keying in a CK4400, CK4455 or CK4482 cylinder. Medeco retrofit cylinders replace a whole cylinder in a specific competing lock instead: the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder, the 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, and the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. None of those are keyed to 57C or built for a Corbin Russwin cylinder body.
12) I need a keyed pull for an aluminum storefront, not a CK4400 plug. What takes its place?
The Corbin Russwin 564K53 is a commercial replacement plug for Corbin Russwin CK4400 series cylinders and has no application on a storefront deadlock. For that opening, the Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull mounts with a trim plate for MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch systems, the 4025 is a five-pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws for the MS1847, and the 4026 is a five-pin tumbler cylinder pull for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock and deadlatch. Match the pull to the deadlock model already in the door.
13) We are standardizing a facility on interchangeable cores. Is the 564K53 a fit, or should we change platform?
The 564K53 keeps the original Corbin Russwin design intact - it is an individual X Class plug rebuilt into the existing CK4400, CK4455 or CK4482 cylinder, so each cylinder is serviced by a locksmith at the door. A standardization program instead uses interchangeable cores that are swapped by hand: 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 Peaks 1CB 150 Series is an interchangeable core cylinder. Those require the matching FSIC or BEST-format housings across the facility.
14) Is this plug suitable for a commercial building on a masterkey system?
Yes, it is a commercial-grade part from Corbin Russwin's cylinder parts line, intended for key control and rekeying work in offices, schools, healthcare and government buildings still running CK4400 series hardware. Pinning to a master system is done by your locksmith at the bench.
15) How do I identify the right Corbin Russwin part number for this plug?
The model is listed as 564K53 57C1, which combines the 564K53 plug with the 57C keyway and the C1 designation. When ordering, give both the 564K53 number and the keyway letter you need, C1 or C2, plus the finish.
16) Does a Corbin Russwin 564K53 plug work in a deadbolt?
The 564K53 is specified for Corbin Russwin CK4400 series cylinders including CK4455 and CK4482, not for deadbolt cylinders. For deadbolt cylinder replacement, the Kaba Ilco 1549 is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder and the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, both catalogued with a deadbolt product function; the Medeco 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion rim type cylinder supplied with an Emtek tailpiece. Verify the deadbolt brand and tailpiece before selecting.
17) For a door that only needs the look of a cylinder with no keying, is the 564K53 the right part?
No. The 564K53 is a working keyed plug configured with the 57C keyway for key control in CK4400 series cylinders. Where an opening needs a cylinder face with no key function, the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills the hole without keying. Use the 564K53 only where the cylinder must operate a key system.
