Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) I have Emtek locks keyed to Weiser WR5 - is this the right blank?
It is. The MS4-KEYBLKC blank is listed as compatible with Weiser WR5 as well as Schlage C, so one blank serves both keyways. Cut it to the bitting of the WR5 cylinder you are duplicating.
2) Will an Emtek key blank work on my Kwikset locks?
No. Kwikset's standard cylinders use the Kwikset KW1 keyway, and the MS4-KEYBLKC is cut only for Schlage C or Weiser WR5. For Kwikset cylinders, use a Kwikset blank such as the 83559-008 large bow builder key for 6 pin, or the 87615-001 for knobs and deadbolts.
3) What is the difference between the Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC key blank and the Kwikset 88485-005 blank?
Both are uncut key blanks meant to be cut to an existing key code, and both address Schlage-keyed cylinders. The Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC is cut for the Schlage C keyway, and it also fits Weiser WR5 cylinders, so one blank covers both keyways. The Kwikset 88485-005 is a Schlage blank supplied for knobs and deadbolts. If the door you are keying is a Weiser WR5 cylinder, the MS4-KEYBLKC is the blank that covers it.
4) Is this an uncut blank or a working key?
Uncut. The MS4-KEYBLKC is a blank, a replacement part meant to be cut by a locksmith or key machine to match an existing Schlage C or Weiser WR5 cylinder. It will not operate anything as supplied.
5) Can I use Emtek key blanks to key a whole building's doors alike?
For a residential setting, yes, within the limit of the keyway. Emtek lists the MS4-KEYBLKC as a residential part, and every cylinder you want on the same key has to be a Schlage C or Weiser WR5 keyway. Cylinders on any other keyway cannot take this blank, so a mixed building needs the cylinders standardized first.
6) Will the Kwikset 81804-001 control key work as a spare key blank for a Schlage C cylinder?
No. The Kwikset 81804-001 is a control key blank, which is the key used to remove or service an interchangeable core rather than to operate the lock day to day. The Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC is an operating key blank for the Schlage C or Weiser WR5 keyway, which is what you cut when you need additional keys for a tenant, a crew, or a keyed-alike set. The two serve different functions and one does not substitute for the other.
7) I need a blank with a bigger head to stamp unit numbers on for an apartment building. What are my options?
The Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC is a standard-bow blank for the Schlage C and Weiser WR5 keyways. If you want more room on the bow for labeling, the Kwikset 83559-008 is a large bow builder key blank on a 6-pin format. Match the blank to the cylinder keyway on the doors first, then choose bow size: a large bow will not help you if it does not fit the lock.
8) Do I need a locksmith to use the Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC, or can a hardware store cut it?
Any key machine that stocks Schlage C can cut it, so a hardware store counter or a locksmith both work. Bring the existing key to duplicate from, or the cylinder's bitting code if you are originating a key. Schlage C is one of the most widely stocked residential keyways, so cutting is rarely the constraint.
