Dormakaba 54562-26D-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dormakaba 54562 cylinder work in a key-in-knob lock, or is it lever only?
The 54562 is a key-in-lever (KIL) cylinder, built to drop into lever-style locksets that take a Kaba 90 keyway cylinder. If you are recylindering a key-in-knob lock instead, look at a knob-specific cylinder such as the Kaba Ilco 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder or the Kaba Ilco 1539 key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder.
2) Can the Dormakaba 54562 be keyed into my existing Schlage C master key system?
No. The 54562 is cut to the Kaba 90 keyway, so it keys only into a Kaba 90 system, not a Schlage C system. For Schlage C keyway work, a cylinder like the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder is supplied in Schlage C. Keep the 54562 for openings already on Kaba 90 key control.
3) I need a mortise cylinder for an exit device trim, not a lever cylinder. Is the 54562 the wrong part?
Yes, wrong part for that job. A KIL cylinder threads into a lever lockset, not into mortise or rim prep. For mortise prep use something like the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 mortise cylinder with an A02 straight cam, and for rim prep on an exit device the Schlage 20-021 six-pin rim cylinder with vertical tailpiece cam.
4) What is the closest alternative to the Dormakaba 54562 for a key-in-lever cylinder if I am not tied to the Kaba 90 keyway?
The Dormakaba 54562 is a Key-In-Lever replacement cylinder built for Kaba 90 keyway systems. If the keyway does not have to be Kaba 90, the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series 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. Choose based on which keyway your building is already keyed to, since the key blank and keying must match the rest of the system.
5) I ordered a mortise cylinder instead of the Dormakaba 54562 and it will not fit my lever lock. What is the difference?
The Dormakaba 54562 is a Key-In-Lever (KIL) cylinder, which drops into the lever itself. A mortise cylinder is a threaded body that screws into a mortise lock case and drives a cam, so it is not interchangeable with a KIL cylinder. Examples of the mortise type are the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 Series 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder with an A02 straight cam, the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 Series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder with Schlage C keyway in 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin. If your lock is a lever with a keyed lever, the KIL cylinder is the correct family.
6) What should I use instead of the Dormakaba 54562 if the opening is a deadbolt rather than a keyed lever?
The 54562 is configured for lever-style locksets, so a deadbolt needs a different cylinder. The Kaba Ilco 1549 Series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder, and the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder; both are listed with a deadbolt product function. For Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts specifically, the Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder.
7) Is the Dormakaba 54562 an interchangeable core, and what do I order if I want small format IC keying instead?
The 54562 is a fixed Key-In-Lever replacement cylinder for Kaba 90 keyway hardware, not an interchangeable core. If you want a removable core program, the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series is an interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1C Series is a standard 5-pin cylinder core, and the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass core in the 150 Series. On the full size side, Schlage 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core cylinder in the C keyway. Interchangeable cores let you rekey by swapping the core with a control key instead of pinning the cylinder.
8) What finish does the Dormakaba 54562 cylinder come in, and will it match my other commercial trim?
One finish only: 626 Satin Chrome, commonly called 26D. That is the standard finish on most commercial lever locksets, so it lines up with existing brushed chrome trim on the rest of an opening or a floor of doors.
9) Is the 54562 a genuine Dormakaba part or an aftermarket cylinder?
It is an OEM Dormakaba replacement part, model 54562-26D-01, from Dormakaba's own parts and accessories line. That matters if your facility standard requires factory components to keep the Kaba 90 key system intact.
10) Can I use this cylinder on a residential door lock?
The 54562 is specified for commercial door hardware, and it only fits locksets built to accept a Kaba 90 KIL cylinder, which is commercial lever hardware. For residential handlesets and deadbolts, retrofit cylinders like the Medeco 1075127 rim-type lazy motion cylinder or the Emtek CY4 are the right direction.
11) Is this a small format interchangeable core, or a fixed cylinder?
The 54562 is a complete replacement KIL cylinder, not an interchangeable core that drops into a housing. If your facility is standardized on interchangeable cores so a locksmith can rekey without pulling locks, that is a different platform: BEST 1C five-pin cores or the 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core, or a full size interchangeable core like the Schlage 20-057 FSIC rim cylinder.
12) We maintain Kaba 90 locks across a school campus. Is the 54562 the right standardization part for lever sets?
For lever openings already on Kaba 90, yes. It keeps every replacement on the same keyway so existing master and grand master keys continue to operate, and the satin chrome finish matches typical commercial lever trim across a campus. Deadbolt openings need a deadbolt cylinder instead, such as the Kaba Ilco 1549 key-in-deadbolt cylinder.
13) Can a rim cylinder replace the Dormakaba 54562 on a keyed lever?
No. A rim cylinder mounts through the door face and drives a tailpiece into a rim device such as an exit device, while the 54562 is a Key-In-Lever cylinder that seats in the lever. Rim examples include the Schlage 20-021 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam, plus the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. Match the cylinder type to the lock body before ordering.
14) I need a Grade 1 rated cylinder for a spec. Which of the cylinders carry a published grade?
Among the commercial cylinders in the same family of parts, the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder is listed as Grade 1 with a five-pin design and a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, and the Corbin Russwin 1000 and 1070 mortise cylinders are Grade 1 Series products. The Dormakaba 54562 is a commercial Key-In-Lever cylinder for Kaba 90 keyway hardware; if the drawing calls out a Grade 1 mortise cylinder, one of the mortise options above is the matching type.
15) What is a substitute for the Dormakaba 54562 when the lock is a Sargent lever?
The 54562 is built for Kaba 90 keyway hardware. For Sargent knob and lever locks, the Kaba Ilco 1579 Series knob and lever cylinder is the version made for Sargent. Both are Kaba-family replacement cylinders, so the decision comes down to which lockset brand the lever belongs to.
16) Which cylinder should I use on an Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock instead of the Dormakaba 54562?
The 54562 is a Key-In-Lever cylinder and will not serve an Adams Rite narrow stile deadlock. For the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, the Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull uses trim plate mounting and the Adams Rite 4025 is a five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws. For a wood door, the Adams Rite 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is designed for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch.
17) Is the Dormakaba 54562 a good match for a residential Emtek handleset?
The 54562 is designated a commercial cylinder for Kaba 90 keyway hardware, so it is not the part for an Emtek handleset. For Emtek, the Emtek CY4 cylinder is the brand's own part, the Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders, and the Medeco 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder supplied with an Emtek tailpiece.
18) I need a non-keyed filler for one side of a door, not a working cylinder like the Dormakaba 54562. What is the right part?
The 54562 is a functioning keyed Key-In-Lever cylinder. If the opening only needs a cylinder-shaped filler with no key function, the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is the dummy version. It fills the prep without providing key operation.
19) The Dormakaba 54562 comes in satin chrome. What do I order if the rest of the door hardware is bronze?
The Dormakaba 54562 Key-In-Lever cylinder is offered in 626 satin chrome. If the surrounding hardware is bronze, the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core cylinder is offered in 643E aged bronze, though it is a full size IC core rather than a key-in-lever cylinder, so confirm the lock accepts that format before switching on finish alone.
