Dormakaba 801231-000-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Dormakaba 801231-000-01 part?
It's a gear detention spring, a small internal spring that sits inside Dormakaba mechanical lock assemblies and holds the gear detent in position so the mechanism cycles correctly. It is a genuine OEM Dormakaba replacement component, sold as a single part under model number 801231-000-01, not a complete lock or trim.
2) Will the Dormakaba 801231-000-01 spring fit my lock?
It fits compatible Dormakaba mechanical lock assemblies only. It is built to the OEM tolerances for Dormakaba locks, so the way to confirm fit is by the part number called out in your lock's parts breakdown rather than by measuring the spring. If your lock is another brand, this is not the spring for it.
3) I'm servicing a Dormakaba lock that won't hold position - do I need a whole new lock or just this spring?
If the fault is the gear detent losing tension, the 801231-000-01 spring is the repair. It's a drop-in OEM component meant to restore gear detention function and get the existing lock back in service without swapping the assembly. If the gear teeth, spindle, or housing are damaged, a spring alone won't fix it.
4) Does the 801231-000-01 come with any other hardware, like screws or a full spring kit?
No. It is ordered as the single gear detention spring, model 801231-000-01, with one orderable configuration. Any other detents, pins, screws, or spindle parts your repair needs have to be ordered separately by their own Dormakaba part numbers.
5) Can I substitute a generic spring instead of the OEM Dormakaba part?
Not advisable. The gear detention spring controls the tension on an internal detent, so spring rate and free length decide whether the mechanism holds and releases correctly. Dormakaba builds the 801231-000-01 to the original tolerances; an off-spec spring is the usual cause of a lock that feels mushy or fails again shortly after service.
6) Is this spring rated for commercial door traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. Dormakaba lists the 801231-000-01 as a commercial-grade replacement part, intended for the high-use openings you find in offices, schools, hospitals, government buildings, warehouses, retail, and multi-tenant residential buildings.
7) I need a spindle part rather than a spring - what else is there?
If your repair is on the spindle side rather than the gear detent, the Corbin Russwin Swivel Spindle Pin x Set Screw is a spindle-level repair part we carry, listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness. It is a Corbin Russwin component though, so it is not an alternative inside a Dormakaba lock body.
8) Is the 801231-000-01 the right thing to stock for a facility standardized on Dormakaba locks?
Yes, if your openings run Dormakaba mechanical locks. Keeping the gear detention spring on the shelf means a service call becomes a bench repair instead of a lock replacement, which is why MRO and maintenance buyers in schools, healthcare, and multi-tenant portfolios carry it as a spare.
