KSP 701-KSP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the KSP 701 mortise housing cam do, and is it a key blank?
The KSP 701 is a screw-on cam for a mortise cylinder housing, cut to the Adams Rite pattern. It is the small tailpiece-style plate that screws to the back of a mortise cylinder and transfers the key rotation into the lock body. Despite where it sometimes turns up in parts listings, it is not a key blank and it will not cut to a key.
2) I have an Adams Rite storefront lock with the wrong cam on the cylinder. Will the KSP 701 fix it?
That is exactly the job it is made for. The 701 is an Adams Rite pattern cam that screws onto the back of a standard mortise cylinder, so a cylinder that came with a standard clover or straight cam can be converted to drive an Adams Rite style aluminum door lock without swapping the whole cylinder. The cam is a separate part from the cylinder, so you keep your existing keying.
3) Can a Kwikset or Emtek key blank be used in place of the KSP 701 mortise housing cam?
No. The KSP 701 is a screw-on mortise housing cam for an Adams Rite style mortise cylinder - it is the tailpiece style part that transfers cylinder rotation to the lock, not a key. The Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC is a key blank cut to a Schlage C keyway, and the Kwikset 81804-001 control key blanks and 83559-008 large bow builder key are likewise key stock. Those are cut to operate a cylinder; the 701 cam is what the cylinder drives. Ordering a key blank will not give you the cam a mortise cylinder needs.
4) Does the KSP 701 cam come with a mortise cylinder?
No. The 701 is the cam alone. You supply the mortise cylinder and the mounting screw hardware that comes with it. Locksmiths typically buy the cam separately when a cylinder needs to be adapted to an Adams Rite style lock case.
5) Is a cam the same thing as a key blank for a mortise cylinder?
No, and they are not substitutes. The KSP 701 is a screw-on cam that drives the lock mechanism. A key blank is the uncut key you duplicate on. If you are after blanks rather than a cam, ZenSupply carries items like the Emtek MS4-KEYBLKC key blank in the Schlage C keyway and Kwikset 81804-001 control key blanks.
6) I am rekeying mortise cylinders and also need key stock - what pairs with the KSP 701 cam?
The KSP 701 supplies the screw-on cam for an Adams Rite style mortise housing, so it covers the cylinder drive side of the job. For the key side, the Kwikset 87615-001 is a 6-pin blank for knobs and deadbolts and the Kwikset 88485-005 is a Schlage-section blank for knobs and deadbolts; both are part/component items rather than cams. Match the blank to the keyway your cylinders are pinned to, and use the 701 only for the cam itself.
7) How many versions of the KSP 701 cam are there to choose from?
One. The 701 is sold as a single model, 701-KSP, with no finish or handing options to specify. Order it as-is.
