Schlage S605-242 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Schlage S605-242 a replacement core for an S200 cylinder, or something else?
The S605-242 is a driver component, a genuine OEM replacement part used inside Schlage S200 Series Full Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) cylinders. It is not a keyed core and not a complete cylinder, so it will not by itself restore a lock with a damaged or missing core. If the part you actually need is a full interchangeable core, the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin cylinder core is a complete core, and the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series is an interchangeable core cylinder. Use the S605-242 only when the S200 housing and core are being serviced and the driver is the piece being replaced.
2) What should I order if the opening needs a complete mortise cylinder rather than an S200 driver part?
The Schlage S605-242 is a replacement driver for S200 Series FSIC cylinders, not a cylinder you can install in a mortise lock case. For a complete mortise cylinder, the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 Series is a 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder with an A02 straight cam, the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 Series is a 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 Series is a 1-1/2 inch large format interchangeable core mortise cylinder, 6-pin, for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with an A01 Schlage L cam. The Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder. Match the cam to your lock case before ordering.
3) I need a whole interchangeable core, not a driver. What should I be looking at instead?
A driver like the S605-242 only rebuilds an existing S200 cylinder. If you need a complete keyable interchangeable core, look at a core product instead, for example the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin cylinder core, the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core, or the drill-resistant BEST 1CDF 7-pin core. Those are finished cores, not internal service components.
4) Will ordering the S605-242 change my existing keying or master key system?
No. It is a driver component that restores proper cylinder actuation and keying operation in an S200 FSIC cylinder, so the cylinder keeps working within the key system it was already bitted to. Keying decisions live with the core, not with this part.
5) Is the S605-242 a drop-in repair or does the cylinder have to be sent out?
It functions as a drop-in replacement driver in compatible S200 Series FSIC applications, which is why locksmiths keep it on the truck: the cylinder is serviced in place instead of swapping hardware and rekeying the opening.
6) I need a Schlage C keyway mortise cylinder, not an S200 driver. What fits?
The Schlage S605-242 is an internal driver for S200 Series FSIC cylinders and is not keyed. For a keyed mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, the Detex MC65 is a mortise cylinder with Schlage C keyway, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin, commercial grade. If your lock case is a Schlage L9000 mortise lock and you want a large format interchangeable core, the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 Series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder is built with an A01 Schlage L cam for that application.
7) My key-in-lever lock needs a new cylinder, not an S200 internal part. What is the equivalent?
The S605-242 driver serves Schlage S200 Series FSIC cylinders and has no role in a key-in-knob or key-in-lever cylinder. For those, the Falcon A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different with two cut keys. The Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the Kaba Ilco 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent, and the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. Confirm the lock manufacturer and keyway before choosing among them.
8) Can the Schlage S605-242 be used on a rim cylinder application?
No. The S605-242 is a commercial-grade replacement driver engineered for Schlage S200 Series FSIC cylinders and does not fit rim cylinder housings. For rim work, the Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece, the BEST 12E Series dummy rim cylinder has a 1-5/32 inch diameter, and Medeco offers rim type lazy motion cylinders including the 1012040 6-pin for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts and the 1065244 5-pin with an Emtek tailpiece. Tailpiece length and lock brand drive that selection.
9) For a facility standardizing on high-security interchangeable cores, is the S605-242 part of that decision?
The S605-242 is a maintenance part for existing Schlage S200 Series FSIC cylinders, ordered to keep installed commercial hardware in service rather than to set a new keying standard. If the goal is a higher-security core program, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant, preferred patented interchangeable core with 7 pins in brass, 150 Series, and the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 Series is an interchangeable core cylinder in the same core format family. Those are core selections; the S605-242 remains the correct order when an S200 driver is what failed.
10) What looks like a substitute for the S605-242 but is not?
Cylinder pulls and deadbolt cylinders are the common mix-ups. The Adams Rite 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws are both for the Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock or deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the 5017 wood door deadlock or deadlatch. The Kaba Ilco 1549 Series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder. None of those are internal components of a Schlage S200 Series FSIC cylinder, which is what the S605-242 driver replaces.
11) Is this a commercial-duty part or something for residential locks?
Commercial. The S605-242 is catalogued for commercial mechanical lock service, and S200 FSIC keying is a commercial interchangeable-core program, the kind of system used in offices, schools, hospitals, and government buildings with master keying.
12) Is the S605-242 a genuine Schlage part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine Schlage OEM. That matters on a driver, because a service component machined to anything other than Schlage's own tolerances is what causes a rebuilt cylinder to bind or key roughly.
13) Is there a simpler option than servicing an S200 cylinder with the S605-242 driver on a residential-style handleset?
The S605-242 is specified for commercial use with Schlage S200 Series FSIC cylinders, so on residential-style handlesets and deadbolts a complete drop-in cylinder is usually the simpler path. 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 Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder, and the Emtek CY4 is a cylinder sold each. Those replace the whole cylinder instead of a driver inside one.
