Corbin Russwin CR2000-039-6-L4-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What do I have to specify when ordering a Corbin Russwin 2000-039 cylinder?
Two things: keyway and finish. Finish is either 606 satin brass or 626 satin chrome. Keyway is the long list, 84 of them, covering the conventional 27, 57, 59, 67, 77 and 97 families, the numeric 60, 70, 99, 252, 981 and 982, the letter keyways AR, BL, BR, D1, D2 and G, plus the H, L and N series (N1 through N28). Pull the keyway off the existing key bow or your master key system records, not off the lock, since a cylinder in the wrong keyway will not accept your keys even though it drops into the lever.
2) Is a conventional key-in-lever cylinder the same as an interchangeable core?
No, and it is the most common mix-up on a rekey job. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a conventional cylinder: it is pinned to a keyway and rekeying it means taking it apart on the bench. An interchangeable core, like the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core or the BEST 1CB 150 Series, pulls out with a control key and swaps in seconds without disassembling anything. If your facility has standardized on IC for tenant turnover, a conventional cylinder will not drop into that workflow.
3) I need a key-in-lever cylinder but my locks are Sargent, not Corbin Russwin. What do I use?
The 2000-039 will not serve you. It is dedicated to Corbin Russwin CL3900 locksets. For Sargent knob and lever locks, the Kaba Ilco 1579 Series knob and lever cylinder is built for that application. Kaba Ilco also lists the 1539 Series as a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, and Falcon locks take the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder in the RU/T Series 6-pin G keyway.
4) What is the Falcon equivalent of the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 key-in-lever cylinder?
The closest peer by function is the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder, a 6-pin cylinder in the G keyway supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys. Both are key-in-lever cylinders that drop into the lockset's lever rather than a mortise or rim prep, and both ship with 2 keys. The difference is the keying system each belongs to: the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a conventional key-in-lever cylinder built for Corbin Russwin CL3900 Series locksets and is ordered in a Corbin Russwin keyway, while the Falcon is fixed to the Falcon G keyway. If the building is keyed to a Corbin Russwin system, the 2000-039 is the one that pins into it.
5) Can a Kaba Ilco 1539 universal cylinder replace a Corbin Russwin 2000-039?
The Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob / lever universal cylinder, so it addresses the same lever prep in general terms, and Kaba Ilco also lists the 1579 knob and lever cylinder built for Sargent locks. Where they part company is the keying: the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is ordered in a specific Corbin Russwin keyway - the range runs from 27 and 57 series keyways through the H, L and N families - so it pins into an existing Corbin Russwin master key system. A universal aftermarket cylinder is the route when the opening does not have to join a Corbin Russwin system; the 2000-039 is the route when it does.
6) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 and an interchangeable core cylinder like the BEST 1CB?
The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a conventional key-in-lever cylinder: the cylinder is the unit, and rekeying means pinning the cylinder. An interchangeable core system separates the core from the housing - BEST lists the Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, the 1C Series standard 5-pin core, and the 1CDF drill resistant patented interchangeable core in 7-pin brass, 150 Series - so a control key pulls the core and a facility can rekey an opening without disassembling the lockset. Schlage covers the same idea on the full size side with the 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam. Choose conventional when the campus is keyed conventionally and cores are pinned in the shop; choose interchangeable core when maintenance staff swap cores in the field.
7) The opening is a narrow stile aluminum door with a deadlock - is the 2000-039 the right cylinder?
No. A narrow stile aluminum deadlock takes a mortise cylinder or a cylinder pull. Adams Rite lists the 4036 mortise cylinder with five-pin security, a Grade 1 cylinder in the 4036 Series with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, plus the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws, both for the MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch; the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull covers the 5017 wood door deadlock and deadlatch. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is made for CL3900 Series locksets, where the cylinder sits in the lever.
8) Do I need to specify handing for a Corbin Russwin 2000 Series key-in-lever cylinder?
No handing to specify. The 2000-039 is non-handed, so the same part goes into a left or right hand CL3900 lever. For a property manager stocking spares, that means one line item covers every door in the building regardless of swing.
9) Does the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 cylinder come with keys?
Two keys ship with each cylinder, so a locksmith can hang the lock and hand over keys the same visit. If the cylinder is going into an existing master key system, order it in the keyway that system uses and have it keyed to your bitting rather than relying on the factory cut keys.
10) Will a rim cylinder work in place of a key-in-lever cylinder?
No, they are different parts for different locks. A rim cylinder, such as the Schlage Commercial 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with a horizontal cam, mounts through the door and drives an exit device or rim lock from behind. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a key-in-lever cylinder that seats inside the lever of a CL3900 lockset. If the key goes into the lever itself, you want the 039. If the key goes into a separate cylinder above the door hardware feeding a surface-mounted device, you want a rim cylinder.
11) Can I standardize one Corbin Russwin cylinder across a whole facility of CL3900 locks?
Yes. Because the 039 is non-handed and dedicated to the CL3900 Series, a facility running CL3900 levers can stock a single keyway and finish combination and cover every opening, regardless of door swing. That is the practical case for a maintenance crib: pick your system keyway, pick 606 or 626 to match the trim, and one part number handles replacements building-wide.
12) Will a Medeco retrofit cylinder work in place of a Corbin Russwin 2000-039?
The Medeco retrofit cylinders in this class are built for other lock platforms, not for Corbin Russwin lever locks: the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder 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, the 1065244 is a 5-pin lazy motion rim type cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. Each is matched to the specific lock body it retrofits. For a Corbin Russwin CL3900 Series lockset, the 2000-039 is the cylinder engineered for that prep.
13) What should I order for a deadbolt instead of the Corbin Russwin 2000-039?
A deadbolt takes a deadbolt cylinder. Kaba Ilco lists the 1549 Series key-in-deadbolt cylinder and the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder, both catalogued with a deadbolt function, and Medeco's 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a conventional key-in-lever cylinder built for CL3900 Series locksets, so it belongs in the lever, not in a deadbolt body. On a job where the lever lock and the deadbolt must operate on one key, keep the deadbolt cylinder in the same keyway family as the lever cylinder you order.
14) How does the Detex MC65 compare to the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 for a keyed exit device?
The Detex MC65 Series is a mortise cylinder, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, commercial grade, cut to the Schlage C keyway - a mortise body that threads into a mortise cylinder prep and keys to a Schlage C system. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a conventional key-in-lever cylinder for CL3900 Series locksets, ordered in a Corbin Russwin keyway and non-handed so it goes in regardless of door hand. They are not interchangeable: the body style and the keying system both differ, so the deciding factors are what prep the device presents and which keyway the building is on.
15) Which finish of the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 matches my existing door hardware?
Two finishes are offered on the 039 cylinder: 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. In commercial buildings 626 is the one that matches most existing Corbin Russwin lever trim. Match the cylinder face to the lever it goes into, since the cylinder face is the visible part once the lock is assembled.
16) Is the Corbin Russwin 2000-039 a genuine replacement part or an aftermarket cylinder?
It is Corbin Russwin's own replacement part for the CL3900 Series, a commercial-duty item in their parts and accessories line. For a spec-driven job where the drawing calls for Corbin Russwin hardware, this keeps the lockset factory-original rather than substituting a universal retrofit cylinder from another maker.
17) I need to fill a lever that is never keyed - is there a cheaper alternative to a working 2000-039 cylinder?
For an opening that needs the look of a keyed cylinder without live keying, a dummy cylinder is the part - BEST lists the 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter. Note that it is a rim body, so it suits a rim prep rather than a lever. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is the functioning conventional key-in-lever cylinder for CL3900 Series locksets and ships with 2 keys, which is what you want on any door that has to be operated by key or joined to a master key system.
18) Is an Emtek CY4 cylinder a substitute for a Corbin Russwin 2000-039?
No - they serve different door hardware. The Emtek CY4 is a cylinder sold as a single part for Emtek hardware, and Medeco's retrofit line reflects that platform separately with the 1065244 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder supplied with an Emtek tailpiece. The Corbin Russwin 2000-039 is a commercial conventional key-in-lever cylinder engineered for CL3900 Series locksets, offered in 606 satin brass and 626 satin chrome. On a commercial opening running a CL3900 lockset, the 2000-039 is the matching part.
