Schlage Residential 29016626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I key the Schlage 29-016 to match my existing Schlage keys?
The 29-016 uses the Schlage C keyway, so a locksmith can pin it to an existing Schlage C key system and it will run on the same key as the rest of your C keyway hardware. That is the usual move when you're replacing one cylinder in a building and want to leave the keying alone.
2) Will the Schlage 29-016 fit a commercial mortise lock or an exit device?
No. The 29-016 is a residential part made for Schlage F Series locks. A mortise lock takes a threaded mortise cylinder with a specified length and cam, like the Corbin Russwin 1000 Series 1-1/2 inch with an A02 straight cam or the 1070 Series 1-1/4 inch six-pin with an A01 cloverleaf cam. An exit device takes a rim cylinder such as the Schlage Commercial 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with a horizontal cam. None of those interchange with an F Series cylinder.
3) My lock is a knob lock but not a Schlage. Is there a universal replacement cylinder?
The 29-016 only serves Schlage F Series. For other brands, the Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the 1599 Series is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent. Identify the lock brand first, then pick the cylinder built for it.
4) What replaces a Schlage F series knob or lever cylinder if the door is not a Schlage lock?
The Schlage 29-016 short compressible cylinder is built for Schlage F series locks, so it does not carry over to another manufacturer's knobset. For a non-Schlage key-in-knob or lever, Kaba Ilco makes universal replacements: the 1539 Series key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, and the 1579 for Sargent knobs and levers. The 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder as well. Falcon's A23161-05 G is a key-in-lever cylinder for RU/T series locks with a 6-pin G keyway, keyed different and supplied with two cut keys.
5) Can the 29-016 be used on an aluminum storefront door?
No. The 29-016 is a residential cylinder for Schlage F series locks. Narrow stile aluminum and glass entrances are served by Adams Rite: the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws are both for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is for the 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch. Choose between the 4024 and 4025 on how the pull is fastened to the door.
6) Is a Schlage 20-021 rim cylinder the same thing as a 29-016?
No. The 29-016 is a short compressible cylinder that fits inside a Schlage F series knob or lever lock. The Schlage Commercial 20-021 is a rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam, 6-pin, supplied with two keys, and the 20-022 is the same rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam. Rim cylinders mount through the door and drive a surface-applied device; they will not seat in an F series lockbody. Match the cam orientation to the device when ordering a rim cylinder, and use the 29-016 when the F series lock is what is being rekeyed.
7) What Schlage C keyway cylinder works in a mortise lock instead of the 29-016?
The 29-016 carries the Schlage C keyway but is a short compressible cylinder for F series residential locks, not a mortise cylinder. For a mortise prep on the same keyway, the Detex MC65 is a 1-1/8 inch 6-pin commercial mortise cylinder with a Schlage C keyway. Corbin Russwin also offers mortise housings: the 1000 Grade 1 series at 1-1/2 inch with an A02 straight cam, the 1070 Grade 1 series at 1-1/4 inch 6-pin with an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Adams Rite 4036 is a five-pin Grade 1 mortise cylinder.
8) For a portfolio being keyed to a master system, is there a cylinder that can be rekeyed without pulling the lock apart?
The 29-016 is a fixed replacement cylinder for Schlage F series locks and is serviced by pinning it. Where the goal is to change keying across many units quickly, interchangeable core cylinders let a control key pull the core: the BEST 1CB Peaks 150 series interchangeable core cylinder, the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented interchangeable core in 7-pin brass 150 series, and the BEST 1C series standard 5-pin core. On the Schlage side, the 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam, and the 20-057-C is a full size interchangeable core in the C keyway, 643E aged bronze.
9) What cylinder keys a Schlage L9000 mortise lock into an existing core system?
The 29-016 is a residential F series part and does not apply to L9000 mortise locks. The Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 series 1-1/2 inch LFIC mortise cylinder is a 6-pin large format interchangeable core cylinder built for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with an A01 Schlage L cam.
10) I manage apartments and need every unit door to key alike. Does the Schlage 29-016 let me do that?
Yes, as long as the locks are Schlage F Series. The 29-016 is a C keyway cylinder, so a locksmith can pin a batch of them to one key change or set them up in a master system across the units. It's the standard way to bring mismatched F Series locks back onto one key without replacing the locks themselves.
11) Does the Schlage 29-016 come with keys?
No. The 29-016 is supplied as one cylinder only, so plan on having it keyed and cut by a locksmith, either to a new change key or to your existing Schlage C system. If you want a cylinder that arrives with cut keys in the box, the Schlage Commercial 20-021 rim cylinder ships with two keys, though that is a rim cylinder for an exit device rather than an F Series replacement.
12) What is a short compressible cylinder and why does it matter on an F Series lock?
Compressible means the cylinder body takes up the small variation between the lock chassis and the door prep as it seats, instead of needing shims or a length choice the way a mortise cylinder does. On an F Series knob or lever you drop it in and it takes up the slack. That's why the 29-016 is ordered by lock family rather than by a length dimension.
13) I want a high security or drill resistant cylinder instead of a standard Schlage C. What are my options?
The 29-016 is a standard Schlage C keyway cylinder, not a patented or drill resistant one. If you need restricted keying, look at the Medeco retrofit cylinders, for example the 1065140 five-pin, which retrofits an Arrow JL interconnected lock and serves as the outside cylinder on Emtek handlesets and deadbolts, or the 1075127 five-pin rim type lazy motion cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts. For interchangeable core work, the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented seven-pin core. Fit is by lock family in every case, so match the cylinder to the lock you actually have.
14) Can I use the Schlage 29-016 to rekey an interchangeable core opening?
No. Interchangeable core hardware takes a core, not an F Series cylinder. For small format work that is the BEST 1C Series standard five-pin core or the 1CB 150 Series core; for full size, the Schlage Commercial 20-057 six-pin FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam, or the 20-057-C full size interchangeable core in C keyway and 643E Aged Bronze. The 29-016 is a fixed cylinder that a locksmith pins, so rekeying it means pulling it from the lock.
15) What cylinder should be used on a deadbolt rather than an F series knob or lever?
The 29-016 is intended for Schlage F series locks. For a deadbolt cylinder, Kaba Ilco's 1549 series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder. On handlesets and deadbolts, Medeco offers rim type lazy motion cylinders: the 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, and the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for Arrow JL interconnected locks and Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinders.
16) What is the difference between the 29-016 and a dummy cylinder?
The 29-016 is a keyed short compressible cylinder in the Schlage C keyway that operates a Schlage F series lock. A dummy cylinder does not key anything; the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter fills the hole and matches the look of a keyed cylinder on a door that does not need to lock. Order the 29-016 when the door is being keyed and a dummy when only the appearance needs to match.
17) What finishes does the Schlage 29-016 replacement cylinder come in?
Three: 606 Satin Brass, 626 Satin Chrome, and 716 Aged Bronze. Pick the one that matches the trim on the lock you're servicing, since the cylinder face is the part that shows through the knob or lever rose.
18) Is the Schlage 29-016 cylinder metal or plated pot metal?
Stainless steel. That matters on an exterior entry door where the cylinder face takes weather, since stainless resists corrosion better than a plated zinc body.
19) Which cylinder finishes match if the 29-016 finish does not suit the door hardware?
The Schlage 29-016 comes in 606 satin brass, 626 satin chrome, and 716 aged bronze. If the opening calls for a darker bronze on an interchangeable core, the Schlage 20-057-C full size interchangeable core is offered in 643E aged bronze with the C keyway.
