Schlage 26-021 F 114 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage 26-021 modular mortise cylinder work on a thicker door, or do I need a different cylinder?
Door thickness is handled by the rear housing, not by buying a different cylinder. Schlage's modular platform offers six rear housing lengths, and you fit the one that suits the door and lock you are working on. Same cylinder, same keying, different housing depth. That is the whole idea behind the modular build: one cylinder body plus the housing, cam and tailpiece the application calls for.
2) Is the straight cam on the Schlage 26-021 the right cam for my mortise lock body?
Straight cam is what the 26-021 comes with, and that is the cam most standard mortise lock bodies take. Cam shape is what actually drives the lock, so identify the cam your lock case needs before you order. If it needs something else, the modular build lets you change the cam rather than buy a second cylinder. For reference on how much cams vary between brands: the Corbin Russwin 1070 mortise housing in 1-1/4 inch uses an A01 cloverleaf cam, while the Corbin Russwin 1000 Series 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder uses an A02 straight cam.
3) Can one Schlage modular cylinder cover mortise, rim and key-in-lever locks on the same job?
That is exactly what the modular design does. Changing the tailpiece, cam or rear housing converts the same cylinder between mortise, rim and key-in-lever or key-in-knob applications, so a service van carries components instead of three finished cylinders in every keyway and finish. The 26-021 is built as a mortise cylinder with a straight cam as supplied; the conversion is a parts change on that same cylinder.
4) What keyways can I order the Schlage 26-021 mortise cylinder in, and can it be keyed into the system I already run?
Keyway choice is wide: C and CE, the C1xx/C2xx/C3xx group (C123, C124, C125, C134, C135, C145, C234, C235, C245, C345), the S group (S123, S124, S125, S134, S135, S145, S234, S235), plus EF, F, FG and G. The modular platform supports interchangeability between Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, so a building already running on one of those can stay on it. Read the keyway stamp on your existing key, order the cylinder in that keyway, and your locksmith pins it to the system. Two keys ship with the cylinder.
5) Does the Schlage 26-021 mortise cylinder come in a left hand and a right hand version?
Non-handed, so there is nothing to specify for hand. A mortise cylinder threads into the lock case and the key turns whichever way the lock needs. What you do have to specify is the finish, the keyway, and the cam your lock body takes, which is a straight cam as the 26-021 is supplied.
6) I need the cylinder to match the lever trim already on my doors. What finishes does the Schlage 26-021 come in?
Twelve finishes: 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 steel, 630 satin stainless steel and 643E aged bronze. Match on the BHMA number stamped or specified on the existing lock rather than the finish name, since names drift between manufacturers and the numbers do not. On commercial openings 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless are the usual standards. The front housing is offered across the finish range specifically so the cylinder matches the lock it goes into.
7) Does the Schlage 26-021 cylinder meet a commercial hardware spec for an institutional facility standard?
BHMA certified to ANSI A156.5 2001, which is the standard covering cylinders and input devices for locks, and it is catalogued as commercial rather than residential duty. Features are listed as basic security and enhanced security. For a facility writing a single hardware standard, the useful part is that the modular platform supports Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, so restricted key control is a keyway decision rather than a change of cylinder platform across the building.
8) Can I replace a worn cylinder in an existing mortise lock without replacing the whole lock?
Yes, and that is what the Schlage 26-021 is for. It is a replacement mortise cylinder: the old cylinder threads out of the lock case, the new one threads in, and the lock body, trim and door prep all stay as they are. Two things to get right before ordering. Order it in the same keyway as the keys already in use if you want one key to keep working across the doors, and confirm the lock case takes a straight cam, which is how the 26-021 is supplied.
9) We are standardizing on interchangeable core. Is the Schlage 26-021 an IC cylinder?
No. The 26-021 is a conventional mortise cylinder, pinned in the cylinder itself, so rekeying it means pulling it and repinning it. If the goal is rekeying in-house with a control key instead of scheduling a locksmith, look at small format interchangeable core instead: the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core, the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, or the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented 7-pin core where key control matters more.
10) Can a Corbin Russwin CR1070-114-A01 stand in for a straight cam Schlage mortise cylinder?
Only if the lock case is looking for a cloverleaf cam. The CR1070-114-A01 is a 1070 Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing supplied with an A01 cloverleaf cam, while the 26-021 is a straight cam mortise cylinder. Both thread into a mortise lock body, but the cam is the part that actually drives the lock, and a cloverleaf and a straight cam are not interchangeable in the same case. If the lock in the door is a Schlage L9000, the Corbin Russwin CR1080-112-A01 is the housing cut for it, a 1-1/2 inch 6-pin LFIC mortise cylinder with an A01 Schlage L cam.
11) What mortise cylinder suits an Adams Rite deadlock in an aluminum storefront door?
The Adams Rite 4036 is built for that opening: a 4036 series Grade 1 mortise cylinder with five-pin security, rated for a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness, which is the narrow stile range a storefront presents. Where the pull itself carries the cylinder, Adams Rite offers the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws and the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting, both for MS1847 deadlock and deadlatch systems, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull for wood door applications with the 5017 deadlock. The 26-021 is a straight cam mortise cylinder with a compression ring application, so it is the choice where the lock case takes a straight cam rather than an Adams Rite deadlock cam.
12) Do I need a spacer collar to get the Schlage 26-021 cylinder tight in the lock face?
The 26-021 is set up for compression ring use, which is what saves you stacking shim collars. The ring sits behind the cylinder and takes up the gap between the cylinder and the lock face, so the cylinder pulls up tight and the keyway ends up sitting square instead of a few degrees off. Thread it in until it seats flush with the cam aligned to the lock's cam slot, then set the retaining screws.
13) Is there another brand of mortise cylinder that takes Schlage C keys?
Detex builds one: the MC65 mortise cylinder on the Schlage C keyway, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, commercial grade, so it accepts keys cut to a Schlage C system. Schlage's own 26-021 is offered in the C keyway too, along with CE, the C1xx and S1xx keyway groups, EF, F, FG and G. Choose on the housing length your lock needs and the cam the lock case takes, since those decide whether it physically works, not the keyway.
14) What is the closest Corbin Russwin equivalent to a Schlage 26-021 straight cam mortise cylinder?
The Corbin Russwin CR1000-112 is the nearest match on function. It is a 1000 series Grade 1 mortise cylinder at 1-1/2 inch length, built with an A02 straight cam, so it presents the same straight cam geometry to the lock case that the 26-021 does. The practical difference is the key system: the 26-021 is cut in Schlage keyways such as C, C123 and S135 and supports Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, while the CR1000-112 sits in the Corbin Russwin 1000 series. Confirm the cylinder length the lock case and door thickness call for before committing to either, since the CR1000-112 is a 1-1/2 inch part.
15) I want key removable cores instead of a conventional mortise cylinder. What should I be looking at?
For a large format interchangeable core in a mortise lock, the Corbin Russwin CR1080-112-A01 is a 1080 series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder, 6-pin, cut for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with an A01 Schlage L cam. If the facility standard is small format interchangeable core, the BEST 1CB is a Peaks 150 series interchangeable core cylinder, the 1CDF is a drill resistant preferred patented 7-pin brass 150 series core, and the 1C 5-pin standard core covers the basic version. The 26-021 is a conventional keyed mortise cylinder with a straight cam and a compression ring application, so it is rekeyed as a cylinder rather than swapped as a core - which is the choice to make up front when you are standardizing a building.
16) Will a Corbin Russwin 3070 rim cylinder work where a mortise cylinder is called for?
No, and it is the substitution most often attempted. The 3070-178 is a 3000 series 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece: it mounts through the door and drives a flat tailpiece into a rim device. The 26-021 is a mortise cylinder that threads into the lock case and turns a straight cam. Same pin count, entirely different drive. The BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder, at 1-5/32 inch diameter, is not a keyed alternative either - it fills the hole without a key function. If what you actually have is a rim device, order a rim cylinder for it rather than adapting a mortise cylinder.
17) I have Falcon key-in-lever and Kaba Ilco knob cylinders in the van. Can either one fill a mortise lock?
They belong in a different housing. The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key in lever cylinder for the RU/T series, 6-pin G keyway, keyed different and supplied with 2 cut keys, and the Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder. Both seat in knob or lever trim, not in a mortise case. The 26-021 is a mortise cylinder, and because it is a modular design it converts between mortise, rim and key-in-lever or key-in-knob use by changing the tailpiece, cam or rear housing, so a single modular cylinder covers the same knob and lever openings those two parts address. Like the Falcon cylinder, the 26-021 comes with 2 keys.
18) I need a mortise cylinder that keys into an existing Schlage C system. What are the options besides Schlage?
The Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin commercial grade mortise cylinder cut to the Schlage C keyway, so it drops into an existing Schlage C key system while coming from a different manufacturer. The 26-021 is offered in the C keyway as well, alongside the wider Schlage family including C123, C245, S135, G and F, and it supports Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems if the site is on a restricted or patented keyway. Both are mortise cylinders; what separates them for the opening in front of you is the length the cylinder pocket needs, since the MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch body.
19) The opening is a residential deadbolt or a handleset, not a commercial mortise lock. What cylinder goes there instead?
Those openings take a rim style or retrofit cylinder driving a tailpiece rather than a cammed mortise cylinder. Medeco covers the common ones: the 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, and the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders, with the 1065244 carrying an Emtek tailpiece. The Emtek CY4 cylinder serves Emtek trim directly, and Kaba Ilco lists the 1549 key-in-deadbolt cylinder for deadbolt use. The 26-021 is a commercial mortise cylinder with a straight cam, BHMA certified to ANSI A156.5 2001.
20) For a facility hardware standard, how do the commercial mortise cylinders compare on certification and grade?
The 26-021 is BHMA certified to ANSI A156.5 2001 and is a non-handed commercial mortise cylinder, so one part number serves left and right hand doors across a building. Among the comparable mortise cylinders, the Corbin Russwin CR1000-112 and the CR1070-114-A01 housing are Grade 1 series parts, and the Adams Rite 4036 is Grade 1 with five-pin security. A specification writer standardizing across a campus is generally choosing between a certified conventional cylinder like the 26-021, which is offered with basic security and enhanced security features and in Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, and an interchangeable core program built on parts such as the BEST 1CDF drill resistant preferred patented 7-pin core.
