Schlage Electronics 653-05 NS SF-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Schlage 653-05 keyswitch actually do when you turn the key?
The 653-05 is a momentary keyswitch with clockwise key turn direction. Turn the key clockwise and the SPDT contacts transfer for as long as you hold it, then spring back when you let go. That is the action you want for releasing a mag lock or firing an automatic operator for a single pass, rather than latching a circuit on and leaving it on. The 650 Series magnetic spring design also lets the installer reconfigure the turn direction and switch between momentary and maintained action in the field in seconds, so a wrong-direction opening is not a reorder.
2) Will the Schlage 653 keyswitch handle the load for a 24 VDC mag lock or door operator relay?
The standard 650 Series keyswitch contacts are rated 5 amp at 30 VDC, SPDT. That covers a typical low voltage access control input, an operator dry contact input, or a relay coil. For anything drawing more than 5 amps, or any line voltage circuit, switch a relay with it instead of running the load through the keyswitch directly.
3) Does the Schlage 653 keyswitch come with a cylinder and keys, or do I supply my own?
Both routes exist. You can order it with a 1-1/4 inch Schlage Everest mortise cylinder that includes two keys and a 1/8 inch spacer ring, or specify that same cylinder keyed alike so multiple switches across a site run on one key. Other configurations ship without the cylinder, which is what you want if your locksmith is pinning to an existing Everest master key system.
4) Is the Schlage 653 keyswitch OK for an exterior door?
There is a weather resistant cover option for outdoor and wash-down locations, but it has limits: it fits a 1-1/8 inch cylinder only and is not offered with the narrow stile plate, the two-LED version, or special finishes. So an exterior install using the cover means the single gang plate and a 1-1/8 inch cylinder, not the 1-1/4 inch Everest cylinder bundle.
5) I ordered momentary but the job actually needs the door to stay unlocked. Do I have to send it back?
No. The patented magnetic spring design in the 650 Series lets an installer change momentary action to maintained, and change the key turn direction, in the field in seconds. So a 653-05 set up as clockwise momentary can be reconfigured on site rather than swapped out.
6) My opening is an aluminum storefront stile - does the Schlage 653-05 fit, or do I need a different switch?
The 650 series is offered in a narrow stile version with a 1-3/4 inch by 4-1/2 inch stainless steel plate, which is the configuration for aluminum storefront stiles; the standard single gang version needs a gang box. Note that the weather resistant cover is not available with the narrow stile option. If the switch is going on the jamb rather than the stile, the BEA 10JAMBSWITCHMOM is a momentary keyswitch plate made for that location.
7) What is an alternative to the Schlage 653-05 keyswitch if I need momentary release from a jamb-mounted plate?
The BEA 10JAMBSWITCHMOM is a keyswitch plate with momentary operation, built for jamb mounting rather than a single gang box. The Schlage 653-05 is a single gang keyswitch with SPDT contacts rated 5 amp at 30 VDC and a magnetic spring design that lets the installer set clockwise or counterclockwise turn and momentary or maintained action in the field. If the opening has a narrow jamb and no gang box, the BEA jamb plate suits it; if you want one switch that can be reconfigured to maintained later, the Schlage 650 series does that without swapping the device.
8) What finishes does the Schlage 650 Series keyswitch come in, and can I match the other hardware in the building?
Four finishes: 630 satin stainless steel (the standard), 626 satin chrome, 625 bright chrome, and 613 oil rubbed bronze. 630 and 626 will sit with most commercial lever and exit device trim; 613 is the one to pick when the building is on dark bronze. Every option group, anti-tamper, the Everest cylinder, keyed alike, LEDs, and narrow stile, is offered across all four finishes.
9) Is there tamper protection on the Schlage 653 keyswitch for a public corridor?
An anti-tamper switch configuration is available, and it is offered in all four finishes. It reports an attempt to pull or defeat the plate back to your panel, which is what you want on a switch mounted in an unsupervised lobby or corridor rather than behind a reception desk.
10) Which keyswitch should I use where tampering is a concern?
The BEA 10JAMBSWITCHONF is a keyswitch plate with a tamper-resistant design. The Schlage 653-05 approaches it differently: an anti-tamper switch is offered as an ordering option on the 650 series, alongside a heavy-duty plate, weather resistant cover, two red/green LEDs and a Schlage Everest cylinder. If the site is already standardized on Everest keying, the Schlage option keeps the cylinder in the same system; if the device is going on a jamb with no gang box, the BEA plate fits that condition.
11) Is a maintained keyswitch a direct substitute for the Schlage 653-05 momentary version?
Not functionally, though the hardware overlaps. A maintained switch such as the BEA 10COMBOPLATE holds the contact state until the key is turned back, which suits hold-open or night-latch use, while a momentary switch such as the BEA 10COMBOPLATEMOM pulses on the key turn for a single release. The Schlage 653-05 ships configured as clockwise momentary, and its magnetic spring design lets an installer change it between momentary and maintained action and reverse the key turn direction in seconds, so one device covers either intent.
