Medeco 1202800T-05-DL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Medeco 1202800T-05-DL plug fit any Maxum deadbolt?
It fits the Medeco Maxum Deadbolt with one exception: Captive models are excluded. If the deadbolt on the door is a Captive Maxum, this plug is not the correct service part.
2) Is this a complete cylinder or just the plug?
Plug only. The 1202800T-05-DL is the cylinder plug for a Maxum deadbolt, sold as a replacement part rather than a full cylinder assembly. If you need the whole cylinder, order a cylinder, not a plug.
3) Does this plug work in a Medeco Biaxial or original Medeco system, or only M3?
M3 only. The plug is built on Medeco's M3 cylinder platform, so the pinning and key geometry match M3 keys. A Biaxial or classic Medeco system needs a plug for that platform, not this one.
4) Will my existing Medeco keys work after I install this plug?
Only if your system is M3, 6-pin, and on the DL keyway. This plug is a 6-pin DL keyway M3 plug, so it accepts DL-keyway M3 keys once it is pinned to your combination. A 5-pin system or a different keyway letter will not carry over, and the plug arrives to be keyed by a locksmith with access to your Medeco key control records.
5) Can a Corbin Russwin cylinder plug be used to replace the plug in a Medeco Maxum deadbolt?
No. The Medeco 1202800T-05-DL is a Maxum deadbolt plug built on the M3 platform with a 6-pin DL keyway, so it only accepts Medeco M3 pinning and DL-section keys. The Corbin Russwin 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4 are plugs for the 1000 Series mortise cylinder, and the 253K66 is a plug for the 3000 rim cylinder - different cylinder bodies and different keyways. Plug swaps stay within one manufacturer's cylinder platform.
6) I need a cylinder plug for a mortise cylinder, not a deadbolt - what should I order?
The Medeco 1202800T-05-DL is specific to the Maxum deadbolt (except Captive models), so it will not serve a mortise cylinder. For mortise work, the Corbin Russwin 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4 are 1000 Series mortise cylinder plugs, supplied as plug only, differing in keyway designation (D2 versus L4). Confirm the keyway your existing Corbin Russwin system is keyed to before ordering.
7) Do I need a Medeco card or authorization to get this plug keyed?
The DL keyway sits inside Medeco's restricted key control program, which is the point of it: duplication and pinning are controlled. Expect to work through an authorized Medeco dealer or locksmith with your system's authorization on file to have the plug pinned to your existing keys.
8) I need a cylinder plug but my locks are Corbin Russwin, not Medeco. What should I order?
Medeco plugs will not go into Corbin Russwin housings. For Corbin Russwin mortise cylinders the plug-only parts are the 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4 from the Grade 1 1000 Series, and for a rim cylinder there is the 253K66 3000 Rim Cylinder Plug. If what failed was the retainer rather than the plug, the 219F88-8 Cylinder Plug Retainer is the part.
9) What is the difference between a cylinder plug and a cylinder plug retainer?
A plug is the rotating core that holds the pin stack and accepts the key - that is what the Medeco 1202800T-05-DL is, a replacement plug for the Maxum deadbolt. A retainer is the small part that holds the plug in the cylinder body; the Corbin Russwin 219F88-8 is a Grade 1 cylinder plug retainer. If your plug spins free or has pulled out but the plug itself is undamaged, the retainer is the part to look at, not a new plug.
10) For a rim cylinder on an exit device, is the Medeco 1202800T-05-DL the right plug?
No - the 1202800T-05-DL is dedicated to the Medeco Maxum deadbolt. Rim cylinder applications call for a rim-specific plug such as the Corbin Russwin 253K66, which is a 3000 Series rim cylinder plug. Match the plug to the cylinder format already installed in the device.
11) Which cylinder plug supports a restricted, controlled-duplication key system?
The Medeco 1202800T-05-DL carries the M3 platform with a 6-pin DL keyway, which keeps the deadbolt inside Medeco's DL key system for controlled key duplication, and it is specified for commercial use. The Corbin Russwin alternatives are catalogued by cylinder format and keyway designation - 121K11-D2 and 121K11-L4 for 1000 Series mortise, 253K66 for 3000 rim - so they key into Corbin Russwin systems instead. Choose by the key system the facility already standardizes on.
12) What finish does this Maxum deadbolt cylinder plug come in?
Bright Brass, finish code 605, which is the only finish offered on this plug. On a deadbolt the plug face is visible at the keyway, so match it to the existing escutcheon and knob finish or the repair will stand out.
13) Is this part suitable for a commercial building or is it residential grade?
Commercial. Medeco rates the plug for commercial use, which is why it turns up in office buildings, hospitals, schools, and government and financial facilities running Medeco key control.
14) Is the 1202800T-05-DL a genuine Medeco part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine Medeco. It is an OEM component built to Medeco's own tolerances for the Maxum platform, which matters on a high-security plug where pin chamber geometry and the angled cuts have to match the key exactly.
