Standard Cylinders Interchangeable Core Schlage

Schlage® locks are provided with cylinders precision built to extremely close tolerances and the highest standards of accuracy. Using only solid brass plugs, extruded brass shells, phosphor bronze springs, nickel silver keys and pins, ensures long life and ease of operation. For complete listing of cylinder parts, refer to the AL-Series Service Manual.

Conventional cylinders are available in Classic keyways or in the newly patented Everest® keyways. Specify keyway to differentiate between Everest and Classic. Example:

C (Classic) vs. C123 (Everest).

Primus® High Security Cylinders

Primus high security cylinders are available to add patented key control and varying degrees of geographical exclusivity to most Schlage 6-pin key systems, whether Everest or Classic keyways.

In addition to a conventional pin tumbler mechanism, Primus cylinders incorporate a patented finger pin and sidebar design providing a “dual-locking” cylinder that is virtually pick-proof. Resistance to drilling and other physical attack is optional by specifying 20-500 Series UL437 Listed cylinders.

Classic Primus cylinders are recommended for upgrading existing Classic key systems. Due to its extended patent life, the newly designed Everest Primus is recommended for new key systems and for upgrading existing Everest® key systems. Specify keyway to differentiate between Everest and Classic. Example:

CP (Classic) vs. C123 (Everest).
