Schlage 20-001 C 134 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I get a Schlage mortise cylinder keyed alike to the other locks in my building?
Yes. Keying is a required choice on the 20-001: keyed different (the standard), keyed alike for multiple locks on one key, or ordered without a cylinder. If you are matching an existing system, there is a key code field to enter your bitting so the new cylinder works on keys already in the building. Every cylinder comes with 2 keys.
2) Does the Schlage 20-001 cylinder meet ANSI standards for a commercial opening?
It's BHMA certified to ANSI A156.5 2001, the auxiliary lock and cylinder standard, and it's built as commercial hardware rather than residential. That's the certification a spec writer or facilities buyer looks for when standardizing cylinders across a building.
3) Will this Schlage mortise cylinder work in a rim exit device?
No. As supplied, the 20-001 is configured as a mortise cylinder with a straight cam and a compression ring and spring, which threads into a mortise cylinder prep. A rim exit device needs a rim cylinder with a tailpiece instead of a cam. For that, look at a rim cylinder such as the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. The modular platform does convert between mortise, rim and key-in-lever by changing the tailpiece, cam or rear housing, but that conversion needs the right housing parts, not just the cylinder as it ships here.
4) My mortise cylinder needs a cloverleaf cam, not a straight cam. What is the difference and what do I order?
Cam shape is what engages the actuator inside the lock case, and it is not interchangeable between lock bodies. The Schlage 20-001 carries a straight cam, cam number L583-476. If the lock case calls for a cloverleaf, the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing uses an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Corbin Russwin 1080 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder uses an A01 cam sized for Schlage L9000 mortise locks. Pull the existing cylinder and look at the cam before ordering - the housing can thread in perfectly and still fail to retract the latch if the cam profile is wrong.
5) I need a mortise cylinder that takes an interchangeable core instead of a fixed pinned plug. What should I order?
The 20-001 is a conventional pinned mortise cylinder - the plug is pinned in the housing and rekeying means taking the cylinder down. For an opening where the facility wants cores swapped in the field without a pinning kit, look at the Corbin Russwin 1080 series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder, which is a 6-pin large format interchangeable core mortise housing with an A01 cam sized for Schlage L9000 mortise locks. BEST's 1CB Peaks 150 series interchangeable core and the 1CDF drill resistant 7-pin patented core in brass are the core side of that same approach for a housing already set up to take a small format core. An MRO buyer standardizing a campus usually picks the IC route for turnover units and keeps conventional cylinders like the 20-001 where the key system is already established.
6) Is a rim cylinder the same as the 20-001 mortise cylinder?
No, and it is the most common wrong order in this family. The 20-001 is a mortise cylinder with a threaded body and a straight cam that turns inside a mortise lock case. A rim cylinder mounts through the door and drives a rim device with a tailpiece instead of a cam - the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece is a rim part, and the Medeco 1012040 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts is another. Neither will thread into a mortise lock. Check the lock case first: if the lock body is mortised into the edge of the door, you want the mortise cylinder; if the device is surface mounted on the face of the door, you want a rim cylinder and tailpiece.
7) For a spec that calls out ANSI A156.5 certification, which cylinders meet it?
The Schlage 20-001 is BHMA certified to ANSI A156.5 2001 and is a commercial cylinder, which is the line an institutional submittal usually wants to see against a cylinder callout. Among the comparable mortise cylinders, the Adams Rite 4036 is Grade 1 in the 4036 series, and the Corbin Russwin 1000, 1070 and 1080 are Grade 1 series mortise cylinders. A hospital or school procurement officer standardizing a facility should hold the cylinder certification and the lock body certification separately on the submittal, since the cylinder is only one part of what the opening is graded on.
8) What is a Schlage modular cylinder and why would a locksmith stock it instead of separate mortise, rim and KIL cylinders?
The Schlage modular cylinder is one core that converts between mortise, rim and key-in-lever or key-in-knob types by changing the tailpiece, cam or rear housing. For a locksmith carrying a van's worth of stock, that means one cylinder body covers three application types instead of three separate part numbers, and six rear housing lengths cover thicker doors. Front housings come in all the lock finishes so the cylinder matches the trim on the door.
9) Can I use Primus XP or Everest 29 keys with this Schlage cylinder?
The modular cylinder platform supports interchangeability between Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, and it is offered in all Schlage keyways including Everest 29 and Primus XP. Practically, that means a building on a Primus XP restricted system and a building on Classic C keys can both be served from the same cylinder family, as long as you order the keyway that matches the system you are working in.
10) What finish should I order so the mortise cylinder matches the rest of my door hardware?
Twelve finishes are offered: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless and 643E aged bronze. On a commercial opening the two you will match most often are 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless. Only the cylinder face shows once it is installed, so match it to the escutcheon or lever trim rather than the door.
11) I'm replacing worn cylinders across a portfolio of doors. Is this the right part to standardize on?
For mortise-prepped commercial openings, yes. The 20-001 is sold as a replacement part, it's non-handed so one part number covers every door regardless of swing, and ordering it keyed alike across the buildings puts your staff on a single key. Standardize on one keyway and one finish and the reorder becomes a single line item. The modular design also means the same cylinder family follows you onto rim and key-in-lever openings as you replace those.
12) Does this cylinder offer high security or is it standard pin tumbler?
Both are covered by the 20-001 range: it is listed with basic security and enhanced security features, and the keyway you pick decides which you get. The Classic keyways (C, E, F, G and the C-multiplex family) are conventional pin tumbler. The Everest S-family keyways are the restricted, patented-key side. Pick based on whether you need key control, meaning nobody duplicating keys at a hardware store.
13) Can I use the Schlage 20-001 to rekey a knob or lever lock?
Not as it comes. The 20-001 is configured as a mortise cylinder with a straight cam for a mortise lock case. For a key-in-knob or key-in-lever opening, the Kaba Ilco 1539 series key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder and the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder are built for that mounting, the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder on the RU/T series 6-pin G keyway keyed different with two cut keys, and the Kaba Ilco 1579 knob and lever cylinder is the version for Sargent locks. If a property manager is rekeying a mixed building, sort the doors by lock type first - mortise cases take the mortise cylinder, knob and lever sets take a key-in-lever cylinder.
14) What do I use for a deadbolt cylinder rather than the 20-001?
The 20-001 is a mortise cylinder for a mortise lock case. For deadbolt applications the Kaba Ilco 1549 series key-in-deadbolt cylinder is the direct part, and the Medeco 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. The Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and for Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder positions, and the 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece. Match the cylinder to the bolt body you are servicing - a lazy motion rim cylinder and a threaded mortise cylinder are not swaps for each other.
15) I need a cylinder that fills the hole but does not key anything. Is the 20-001 the wrong part?
Yes, for that job. The 20-001 is a working 6-pin mortise cylinder and ships with two keys. When an opening needs the cylinder face for appearance or to blank off a prep with no keying behind it, the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is the part built for that purpose. Property managers use dummy cylinders on inactive leaves and decommissioned openings so the door still looks complete without adding another key to the system.
16) Which cylinder gives me drill resistance and a patented key that cannot be duplicated at a hardware store?
The Schlage 20-001 covers basic security and enhanced security, and supports interchangeability between Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, which is where its restricted keying comes from. If the requirement is a drill resistant patented core, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant preferred patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass cylinder in the 150 series. The trade-off is architecture rather than quality: the 1CDF is a core that drops into an IC housing and rekeys by pulling the core, while the 20-001 is a conventional cylinder that stays in the mortise case. For a security integrator specifying a high-risk opening, decide the housing type first, then the key system.
17) Is a 5-pin cylinder core an alternative to the 6-pin 20-001?
They serve different key systems rather than substituting for each other. The 20-001 is a 6-pin mortise cylinder, and pin count has to match the key system the building is already on - a 6-pin master keyed system will not accept a 5-pin plug. The BEST 1C series standard 5-pin cylinder core is a 5-pin core from the standard and premium cores line, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a five-pin mortise cylinder. Confirm the pin count of the existing keys before ordering; a distributor filling a repeat order should carry the pin count forward from the original cylinder, not from the door.
18) Will a Schlage 20-001 work as a replacement cylinder in an Emtek handleset?
Not directly. The 20-001 is a mortise cylinder with a straight cam for a commercial mortise lock case. Emtek residential trim takes its own cylinder parts: the Emtek CY4 cylinder is the direct replacement, the Medeco 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the Medeco 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder that covers the Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder position. Contractors doing mixed residential and commercial work in one building should split the count by trim type before ordering.
19) What is the compression ring and spring for on a mortise cylinder?
They take up the gap so the cylinder seats tight and flush in the mortise prep instead of standing proud or spinning. The 20-001 ships with both, so on a standard mortise install you are not chasing separate shim parts to get the face right against the trim.
