Schlage 40-100 C 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) My lock is not a Schlage. Will the 40-100 cylinder fit it?
It will not. The 40-100 is built for Schlage key-in-lever and key-in-knob locks and the tailpieces packed with it are for those locks. For other brands, ZenSupply stocks the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the 1579 Series knob and lever cylinder made for Sargent, and the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder. Falcon RU and T Series levers take the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder.
2) Can one Schlage modular cylinder be converted to a mortise or rim cylinder?
That is the point of the modular design. The same cylinder becomes a mortise, rim, or key-in-lever cylinder by changing the tailpiece, the cam, or the rear housing. For a locksmith stocking a van or a maintenance shop keeping a parts drawer, that means one cylinder body and a set of components instead of three separate cylinder types on the shelf. The 40-100 is supplied with multiple tailpieces, so the key-in-lever side is already covered out of the box.
3) Can I order Schlage 40-100 cylinders keyed alike across a building or keyed to my existing system?
Keying is chosen when you order. Keyed different is the standard, keyed alike is there when several openings need to run on one key, and there is a key code field so cylinders can be cut to an existing system rather than a fresh combination. There is also a no-keying option if you want the lock less cylinder. Two keys come with the cylinder. On the key system side, the Schlage modular cylinder supports interchangeability between Everest 29, Primus XP, and Classic key systems, which is what lets a property with a mixed set of Schlage keyed openings stay on one program.
4) Which Schlage keyway do I pick for a 40-100 key-in-lever cylinder?
Twenty six keyways are offered: the single sections C, CE, E, EF, F, FG, and G, the C multi sections C123, C124, C125, C134, C135, C145, C234, C245, and C345, and the S multi sections S123, S124, S125, S134, S135, S145, S234, S235, S245, and S345. Match the keyway already running in the building, since a cylinder in the wrong section will not accept the keys the tenants and staff are carrying. Every one is listed 0 bitted, so the cylinder arrives uncut and gets combinated to the keying you specify on the order.
5) Is the Schlage 40-100 an interchangeable core cylinder?
No. The 40-100 is a conventional 6-pin cylinder, keyed as a unit, so rekeying it means pulling the cylinder and re-pinning it rather than turning a control key and swapping a core. If your facility runs interchangeable core so maintenance can rotate keying without a locksmith, that is a different platform, and ZenSupply carries it: the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core, the Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core cylinder, and the drill resistant 1CDF 150 Series patented 7-pin core.
6) I need a mortise cylinder for a Schlage L9000 mortise lock. Is this the right cylinder?
Not as it ships. The 40-100 arrives set up for key-in-lever and key-in-knob locks; the modular platform does convert to mortise by changing the cam and the rear housing, so it is a conversion rather than a drop-in. If you want a cylinder already built for the L9000, ZenSupply carries the Corbin Russwin 1080 Series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder, 6-pin, with the A01 Schlage L cam. For general Grade 1 mortise work there is also the Corbin Russwin 1070 Series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam and the 1000 Series 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder with an A02 straight cam.
7) Will a Schlage 40-100 cylinder work in an aluminum storefront door?
Wrong part for that opening. The 40-100 is a cylinder for Schlage key-in-lever and key-in-knob cylindrical locks, not for a narrow stile storefront deadlock. For an Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock or deadlatch, ZenSupply carries the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws. The 4026 five pin cylinder pull is the one for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock. Where the door takes a straight mortise cylinder, the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five pin mortise cylinder that works from a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness.
8) What is the Falcon equivalent of the Schlage Commercial 40-100 key-in-lever cylinder?
The closest Falcon counterpart is the A23161-05 G, a key in lever cylinder for RU/T series locks with a 6-pin plug in the G keyway, supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys. The Schlage 40-100 is also a 6-pin cylindrical lever cylinder and also includes 2 keys, but it is supplied 0 bitted in whichever keyway you pick, so the pinning and the key cuts are done at the bench to match an existing system. Order the Falcon when the opening is a Falcon RU/T lever; order the 40-100 when you are keying into a Schlage keyway.
9) I need a cylinder for a mortise lock instead of a lever. What should I order?
The Schlage 40-100 is a cylindrical lever cylinder, packed with tailpieces for key-in-lever locks. For a mortise body, the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, which is the same C keyway the 40-100 is offered in, so both can be pinned into one C system. Corbin Russwin also covers mortise: the 1000 is a Grade 1 mortise cylinder 1-1/2 inches long with an A02 straight cam, and the 1070 is a 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam. Match cam style and length to the lock body.
10) Our facility keys everything on interchangeable cores. How does that change the cylinder choice?
The Schlage 40-100 is a 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder supplied 0 bitted, and its modular design lets you change the front housing, rear housing or tailpiece to serve mortise, rim and key-in-lever applications from one part. An interchangeable core program works the other way, standardizing the core and swapping it with a control key: the BEST 1CB is an interchangeable core cylinder in the 150 series, the 1C is a standard 5-pin cylinder core, and the 1CDF is a 7-pin brass drill resistant patented core in the same 150 series. Pick the one that matches how your keying records are already kept.
11) Can the Schlage 40-100 be used in a deadbolt?
It is not the part for that. The 40-100 is a cylindrical lever cylinder with a lever handle type, packed with tailpieces to fit key-in-lever locks. For deadbolt applications, Kaba Ilco lists the 1549 key-in-deadbolt cylinder, whose product function is deadbolt. If the opening is a knob rather than a lever, the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. Confirm the tailpiece the lock takes before you order, since that is what separates a lever cylinder from a deadbolt cylinder.
12) Is there a universal key-in-lever cylinder that covers more than one lock brand?
Yes. The Kaba Ilco 1539 is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, sold as a one-part answer across mixed hardware. The Schlage 40-100 takes a different route to the same goal: it is a 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder packed with multiple tailpieces so one cylinder covers a range of locks, and it holds the Schlage keyways including C, E, F, G and the S-series combinations. Choose the 1539 when the building has assorted brands on the doors; choose the 40-100 when the keying stays inside a Schlage keyway.
13) Will a Schlage modular cylinder work on a thicker than normal door?
Thicker doors are handled by the rear housing, not by a different cylinder. Six rear housing lengths are offered on the Schlage modular cylinder platform, so a door heavier than a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial leaf gets the longer housing rather than a whole different part number. The cylinder body, keyway, and tailpiece selection stay the same.
14) What finishes does the Schlage 40-100 cylinder come in, and will it match my existing lever trim?
Five finishes are offered: 606 satin brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 622 matte black, 626 satin chrome, and 643E aged bronze. Those are BHMA finish numbers, so you can match the cylinder to the number already stamped on your lever trim instead of eyeballing the color. On the modular platform the front housing is what carries the finish, which is why the finish is picked separately from the keyway and the tailpiece.
15) What is the difference between the Schlage 40-100 and the Falcon A23161-05 G key-in-lever cylinder?
Both are 6-pin key-in-lever replacement cylinders, but they are ordered differently. The Falcon A23161-05 G is one fixed configuration for Falcon RU and T Series levers: G keyway, keyed different, two cut keys. The Schlage 40-100 is a modular cylinder for Schlage key-in-lever and key-in-knob locks, and you build it on the order, choosing from twenty six keyways and five finishes, with keyed alike available and a key code field for matching an existing system. Pick by the lock that is already in the door.
16) Can I get my exit device onto the same Schlage key as my lever locks?
Yes, by matching the keyway across both. The 40-100 key-in-lever cylinder is offered in the C keyway, and for a Detex exit device ZenSupply carries the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, so both openings run on the same C system. Where the device takes a rim cylinder, the Corbin Russwin 3070 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece is the rim option. The Schlage modular cylinder itself also converts to rim by changing the tailpiece and rear housing.
17) Can the Schlage 40-100 rekey a residential handleset or deadbolt?
The 40-100 is a commercial key-in-lever cylinder. Residential handlesets and deadbolts are served by different parts: the Medeco 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, the 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts, the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and the Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder, and the 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece. Identify the lock brand first, because the tailpiece is what makes each of these fit.
18) The lever I am rekeying is a Sargent, not a Schlage. Is the 40-100 the right cylinder?
Only if you are moving the opening onto a Schlage keyway. The 40-100 is a 6-pin cylindrical lever cylinder offered in Schlage keyways such as C, E, F and G, supplied 0 bitted. To stay on the existing Sargent hardware, the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder made for Sargent. The decision is which key system the door has to answer to, since the cylinder body and tailpiece follow from that.
19) Which cylinder goes in a rim exit device or rim lock?
A rim application needs a rim cylinder with the correct tailpiece length. The Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece, in the 3000 series. On the Schlage side the 40-100 is a 6-pin cylinder built on a modular design that adapts to mortise, rim and key-in-lever or key-in-knob applications by changing the tailpiece, cam or rear housing, so the rim configuration comes from adding the rim components rather than from a separate cylinder. Confirm the tailpiece length the device calls for either way.
20) Does it matter whether a replacement cylinder is 5-pin or 6-pin?
It decides whether your existing keys will work. The Schlage 40-100 is a 6-pin cylinder, as are the Detex MC65 mortise cylinder and the Corbin Russwin 3070 rim housing and 1070 mortise housing. Several common alternates are five-pin: the Adams Rite 4036 mortise cylinder, the Adams Rite 4025 cylinder pull, the BEST 1C standard core, and the Medeco 1065140 retrofit cylinder. Pin count has to match the key system the building is already keyed to, so check the existing bitting before you substitute across that line.
21) What are the options if I want key control that resists unauthorized duplication?
Two different approaches. The Schlage 40-100 supports interchangeability between the Everest 29, Primus XP and Classic key systems, so restricted key control comes from the key system the cylinder is pinned into while the modular body still serves multiple lock types. The BEST 1CDF takes the core route: a drill resistant preferred patented interchangeable core, 7-pin, brass, in the 150 series. One puts the control in the Schlage keyway and keying records, the other in a patented core you can swap at the door.
22) Is a 6-pin cylinder worth it over a 5-pin for a master keyed building?
For anything with a master key on it, yes. The 40-100 is a 6-pin cylinder, and the sixth chamber gives more usable key changes and more room to build master and grand master levels than a 5-pin body does, which matters once a property has floors, departments, or a maintenance key riding above the tenant keys. Some cylinders on the market are 5-pin, the BEST 1C Series standard core among them, and those are fine for a small keyed alike group but tighter to expand later.
23) I need to fill a cylinder hole on a door that does not get keyed. Is a lever cylinder the answer?
No, a keyed cylinder is the wrong part for a hole that never takes a key. The BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder, 1-5/32 inch diameter, is made to occupy the prep without operating anything. The Schlage 40-100 is a 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder supplied with 2 keys and offered in 0 bitted keyways for pinning into a system, which is what you want on the doors that are actually keyed and not on the ones that are only being covered.
