Schlage C Keyway Only Compatible Cylinder Horizontal Driver, Satin Chrome, Zero Bitted

Schlage C Keyway Compatible Cylinder For Cabinet Locks

Schlage C keyway compatible cylinder gives you a cylinder set up specifically for Schlage C keyway layouts, so you can match cabinet locking to existing key systems that use that standard. The cylinder is solid brass, drilled for 6 pins, which supports typical 6-pin Schlage-style keying patterns where you need standard security pin stacks. It works with Olympus less cylinder (for Schlage standard cylinder) cabinet locks, so you can finish those bodies with a properly matched plug when you do not have a factory-prepped core. The cylinder is described as horizontal driver, which matches cabinet lock bodies that use a horizontally oriented driver interface for turning the latch mechanism in line with the cabinet front. The cylinder is supplied zero bitted, which gives you a blank pinning configuration ready for custom keying on your bench.

Key Cylinder Details That Support Cabinet Work

• The solid brass construction provides a machinable body for pinning and keying while offering a typical cabinet-lock-grade housing that handles repeated key cycles in normal woodworking environments.
• Being drilled for 6 pins lets you build out full 6-pin key codes on Schlage C systems, which helps align cabinet locks with door hardware keyed on the same pin count where a consistent scheme is required.
• Compatibility with Olympus less cylinder cabinet locks (for Schlage standard cylinder) means you can drop this plug into those specific lock bodies, turning stock housings into finished, usable cabinet locks for your installations.
• The horizontal driver design interfaces with corresponding horizontal driver mechanisms in cabinet lock cases, giving you the rotational transfer needed to move the internal latch or cam in a straight, predictable path.
• A zero bitted configuration provides a starting point without preset pinning, so you can set up your own key bitting patterns for master key systems or job-specific key codes on site or in the shop.

Mounting And Driver Details For Cabinet Fit

This Olympus lock cylinder uses a horizontal driver layout, which pairs with cabinet lock bodies designed for that style so rotation of the key directly drives the internal mechanism along the horizontal axis of the door or drawer front. The cylinder works with Olympus less cylinder cabinet locks built for Schlage standard cylinders, so the overall fit is based on that body style and plug interface. Being drilled for 6 pins, the cylinder accepts 6-pin stacks, which affects how you load pins during pinning so the plug aligns correctly with Schlage C key cuts. The solid brass material supports common locksmith rekeying practices, allowing pin chambers and keyway surfaces to interact smoothly with standard pins and keys.

Using This Olympus Cylinder In Cabinet Projects

Where This Lock Cylinder Fits Cabinet Installations

This Olympus lock cylinder is specified for Olympus less cylinder cabinet locks that are designed for Schlage standard cylinders, so it fills those lock bodies when you are assembling cabinet locks around existing Schlage C key systems. The Schlage C keyway compatible layout means the cylinder is built for Schlage C pattern keys, which is useful on cabinetry in spaces where door hardware or other locks already rely on that same keyway. The horizontal driver configuration suits cabinet lock cases that transfer turning motion through a horizontal bar or cam, so the cylinder engages the internal parts in the direction those locks are engineered to move. Tailpiece/driver bars listed for 1-1/8 and 1-3/8 lengths indicate it addresses common cabinet lock backset or thickness ranges where those bar lengths are typically used to reach the latch point.

Why Zero Bitted, 6-Pin, Solid Brass Matters

The zero bitted status of this cylinder means the pin stacks start from a neutral configuration, so you can set up all six pin positions according to your chosen key codes without working around pre-cut bitting. Because it is drilled for 6 pins, each chamber can accept a full-height pin set in line with typical Schlage 6-pin systems, which supports keyed-alike or master-key arrangements across multiple cabinet locks using the same structure as other Schlage-based hardware. The solid brass body offers the typical workability locksmiths expect when loading or changing pins, so tools and components seat properly during keying operations. Being from Olympus Lock, Inc. and identified as part 78-201H26D-OBIT ties it to Olympus documentation and ordering, which helps match additional cylinders to the same configuration when you repeat cabinet lock setups on future projects.
