Deltana CYLK-26D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Deltana CYLK cylinder key alike with my existing Kwikset locks?
The CYLK uses a Kwikset-compatible keyway, so it can be keyed into an existing Kwikset-keyed set by a locksmith. Out of the box it is a keyed cylinder, not pre-matched to your key, so plan on having it rekeyed to your bitting if you want one key across the doors.
2) What does the Deltana CYLK cylinder actually fit?
It is the replacement key cylinder for Deltana residential keyed knobs, tubular lock type. It is not a mortise cylinder and not a rim cylinder, so it will not drop into a mortise lock body or an exit device.
3) Is the Deltana CYLK appropriate for a commercial mortise or rim exit device opening?
No. The CYLK is a residential tubular knob cylinder. Mortise locks take a threaded mortise cylinder such as the Corbin Russwin 1000 series 1-1/2 inch with A02 straight cam or the Detex MC65 with Schlage C keyway in 6-pin. Rim exit devices take a rim cylinder such as the Schlage 20-021 with vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with horizontal tailpiece cam. None of those interchange with a knob cylinder.
4) Can the Deltana CYLK be used in a deadbolt, or is there a different cylinder for that?
The CYLK is a cylinder for residential knob locks, matched to a knob handle type. For a deadbolt, the Kaba Ilco 1549 is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder. If the deadbolt is a Kwikset single cylinder and you want a high-security core, the Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts.
5) What is a direct alternative to the Deltana CYLK knob cylinder if I need a keyed replacement cylinder for a key-in-knob lock?
The Deltana CYLK is a keyed tubular cylinder for residential knob locks with a Kwikset-compatible keyway. If you need a knob cylinder from another maker, the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder. The Ilco units are sold as replacement cylinders for key-in-knob and lever locks generally, while the CYLK is matched to Deltana's residential knob series and carries the Kwikset keyway profile.
6) I need a knob cylinder to key-match a Sargent lock instead - what should I order?
The Deltana CYLK is built around a Kwikset-compatible keyway, so it will not accept a Sargent key. The Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder made for Sargent locks, which is the one to specify when the opening has to key into a Sargent system.
7) What finishes does the Deltana CYLK cylinder come in so it matches my knob?
Five: PVD Polished Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Brushed Chrome, and Antique Brass. Match the cylinder finish to the knob rose it sits in, since the cylinder face is the visible part.
8) My Deltana knob is fine but the key cylinder is worn out. Do I have to buy the whole lockset?
No. The CYLK is sold as the cylinder alone, so you replace just the keyed plug assembly in the Deltana residential knob and keep the existing knob, rose and latch. Match the finish to what is on the door.
9) We key our buildings on an interchangeable core system - is the Deltana CYLK compatible, or do I need something else?
The CYLK is a fixed keyed cylinder for Deltana residential knobs, not an interchangeable core. For IC keying, the BEST 1C series standard 5-pin core and the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 series interchangeable core are core-based products, and the Schlage 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam. Those let you rekey by swapping the core; the CYLK does not.
10) What is the equivalent replacement cylinder if the knobs are Emtek rather than Deltana?
The Deltana CYLK is matched to Deltana's residential knob series. For Emtek trim, the Emtek CY4 cylinder is the brand's own part, and the Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder listed for Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder use, with the Medeco 1065244 a 5-pin lazy motion rim cylinder supplied with an Emtek tailpiece.
11) The CYLK is a residential part - what do I use if the spec calls for a Grade 1 cylinder?
The CYLK is a residential cylinder and is not graded. Where a Grade 1 cylinder is required, the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder is a five-pin Grade 1 unit for doors 1/2 inch minimum thickness, and the Corbin Russwin 1070 is a Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with A01 cloverleaf cam. Both are mortise-prep parts, so the door has to be prepped for a mortise cylinder rather than a tubular knob.
12) Would a cylinder pull work as a substitute for the Deltana CYLK?
No. The Adams Rite 4024, 4025 and 4026 are cylinder pulls, and the 4024 and 4025 are designed for use with the Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch while the 4026 is for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch. They are pull assemblies for narrow stile and wood door deadlocks, not a drop-in keyed cylinder for a residential knob the way the CYLK is.
13) What is the Deltana CYLK cylinder made of, and will it hold up on a busy entry door?
Steel and zinc construction. It is rated residential, so it is sized for house and apartment entry traffic rather than a high-cycle commercial opening. For multi-family units it is a reasonable like-for-like replacement where Deltana knobs are already installed.
14) I need a knob cylinder with drill resistance for a higher security opening - what is there besides the CYLK?
The CYLK is a steel and zinc residential knob cylinder on a Kwikset-compatible keyway. For a hardened option, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented interchangeable core, 7-pin, brass, 150 series. It is a core rather than a knob cylinder, so the lock has to accept an interchangeable core.
15) If the opening only needs the look of a keyed cylinder and no key function, is the CYLK the right part?
The CYLK is a keyed cylinder, so it will operate with a key. Where only the appearance is needed with no keying, the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills a rim prep without key function.
