Weslock Cylinder for 371 Series

Yes, by ordering the 371 Series cylinder in the Schlage keyway rather than the Weslock one. The cylinder is the part that carries the keyway, so swapping it is how a Weslock lock joins a Schlage key system without replacing the lockset. A property manager standardizing a building on one key blank does this on the cylinder, not the lock body.

It is sold as the cylinder for the Weslock 371 Series, so order it against a 371. Weslock cylinders are not a single universal part across the line, and a cylinder cut for a different series can seat wrong or leave the tailpiece short. Confirm the series stamped on the lock you are replacing before you order.

Just the cylinder, if the lock itself is sound. The Weslock 371 Series cylinder is the keyed plug assembly out of the lever, so replacing it re-keys that door and leaves the lever, latch, and strike alone. It is the cheaper turn on a rental unit and the finish stays matched to what is already on the door.

No. The Schlage Commercial 20-021 is a rim cylinder with a 6-pin plug and a vertical tailpiece cam, supplied with 2 keys, and it mounts to the back of a rim device rather than into a residential handleset. The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is the key cylinder built for the Weslock 371 handleset and is ordered by keyway - Kwikset, Schlage, or Weslock. If the opening is a rim exit device, the 20-021 or the Schlage 20-022 with a horizontal tailpiece cam is the correct family; a Schlage keyway on the Weslock cylinder means the key section, not the cylinder format.

The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is a replacement key cylinder offered in Kwikset, Schlage, and Weslock keyways, so it drops into the 371 handleset on whatever key system the building already runs. If the requirement is patented high security keying rather than a standard keyway, Medeco builds retrofit cylinders for residential handlesets and deadbolts: the Medeco 1075127 is a 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, and the Medeco 1012040 is a 6-pin lazy motion rim cylinder for Kwikset single cylinder deadbolts. Those are rim type lazy motion cylinders on the Medeco key system, so the keys will not interchange with a Kwikset or Schlage keyway cylinder.

The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is the cylinder for the Weslock 371 handleset. A mortise lock takes a threaded mortise cylinder with a cam. Corbin Russwin covers that with the 1000 Grade 1 series mortise cylinder at 1-1/2 inch length with an A02 straight cam, the 1070 Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with an A01 cloverleaf cam, and the 1080 Grade 1 series 1-1/2 inch LFIC 6-pin mortise cylinder for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with the A01 Schlage L cam. The Detex MC65 is a mortise cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, 1-1/8 inch, 6-pin. Cam style and cylinder length have to match the mortise lock case, which is why these are ordered by cam code rather than by keyway alone.

The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is brand-specific: it is the cylinder for the Weslock 371 handleset, offered in Kwikset, Schlage, and Weslock keyways. For a locksmith van stocking one part across mixed hardware, Kaba Ilco builds universal replacements - the Ilco 1539 series is a key-in-knob and lever universal cylinder, the 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder, and the 1579 is a knob and lever cylinder for Sargent. The Ilco 1549 is the key-in-deadbolt version when the opening is a deadbolt rather than a keyed knob or lever.

The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is a conventional keyed cylinder ordered by keyway - Kwikset, Schlage, or Weslock - and by finish. Interchangeable core keying comes from a different cylinder family. The BEST 1C series standard 5-pin cylinder core and the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 series interchangeable core cylinder are core-based, as is the BEST 1CDF drill resistant patented interchangeable core 7-pin brass 150 series. On the Schlage side, the 20-057 is a 6-pin FSIC 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. Those are the parts to specify when a facility is standardizing on cores; the Weslock 371 cylinder is the match when the 371 handleset itself is being rekeyed.

No - the Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is the key cylinder for a Weslock 371 handleset on a residential style door. Aluminum storefront and narrow stile openings use Adams Rite hardware and its own cylinder parts: the 4024 cylinder pull with trim plate mounting and the 4025 five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws are both designed for the Adams Rite MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch, and the 4036 mortise cylinder is a Grade 1 cylinder with five-pin security and a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness. For a wood door running Adams Rite hardware, the 4026 five pin tumbler cylinder pull is designed for the Adams Rite 5017 wood door deadlock/deadlatch.

A universal key-in-knob/lever cylinder is built to drop into a range of brands rather than one series. The Kaba Ilco 1539 Series is that kind of part, and the Kaba Ilco 1599 is a key-in-knob replacement cylinder. They are the route when the lock brand on the door is unknown or discontinued. When the door is a known Weslock 371, the 371 Series cylinder is the direct part and needs no adapting.

Standardize the keyway, not the lock brand. Order the Weslock 371 cylinders in the Schlage or Kwikset keyway to match whatever blank the rest of the property already uses, and the Weslock doors key alike with the others. For openings you want on an interchangeable core system instead, so a maintenance tech can re-key a unit without pulling the lock, look at the BEST 1C Series standard 5-pin core or the Schlage 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder. Those are a different system, not a mix-and-match with the 371 cylinder.

They are both replacement cylinders sold as single pieces, but they belong to different hardware lines. The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is the cylinder for the Weslock 371 handleset, ordered by keyway - Kwikset, Schlage, or Weslock - and by finish, with Oil Rubbed Dark Bronze, Antique Brass, Black, Bright Chrome, Lifetime Brass, and Satin Nickel offered. The Emtek CY4 is an Emtek cylinder sold each. For Emtek hardware on a Medeco key system, the 1065244 is a 5-pin rim lazy motion rim type cylinder with an Emtek tailpiece, and the 1065140 is a 5-pin retrofit cylinder for the Arrow JL interconnected lock and the Emtek handleset and deadbolt outside cylinder. Match the cylinder to the lock brand it is going into rather than to the keyway alone.

The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is a working keyed cylinder, supplied in Kwikset, Schlage, or Weslock keyway so it can be keyed into an existing system. A dummy cylinder does no keying at all and is used where the trim needs a cylinder face but no operation: the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder has a 1-5/32 inch diameter for that purpose. If the goal is simply to change the key on a Weslock 371 handleset, the keyed 371 cylinder is the part; the dummy is for openings that are meant to stay unlocked or blank.

The Falcon A23161-05 G is a key in lever cylinder for the RU/T series with a 6-pin G keyway, supplied keyed different with 2 cut keys, and it serves Falcon lever locks. The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is selected by keyway - Kwikset, Schlage, or Weslock - and by finish across Oil Rubbed Dark Bronze, Antique Brass, Black, Bright Chrome, Lifetime Brass, and Satin Nickel, which is what lets a property manager bring a 371 handleset onto the same key section as the rest of the doors. The Falcon part is the equivalent when the lock in the door is a Falcon lever rather than a Weslock 371.

A rim device takes a rim cylinder housing with a tailpiece sized to the device. The Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece in the 3000 series, and the Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 are 6-pin rim cylinders with vertical and horizontal tailpiece cams respectively, each supplied with 2 keys. The Weslock cylinder for the 371 series is not a rim housing - it is the keyed cylinder for the Weslock 371 handleset and is chosen by keyway and finish.
