Key customization is a problem, but there's an easy fix.

Everything is fine except for the lock cylinder. I gave it 3 stars because the other reviewers are right that the old/original Schlage keys will not fit without modification. Would be 1 star but I found there is a very simple mod to fit other/original Schlage buttons. The problem is not the thickness of the keys, as others have said, but the shape of the key itself. The new cylinder is not as regular as the original Schlage cylinders. It appears that the quality control of the tool used to cut…

Pros
  • GOLS certificate

Works after some fiddling

Bought a pair of these to add locks to our two sliding glass doors. My plan was to replace them so my existing house key would fit in all the locks. I wanted to be able to go out the back door and lock the doors behind us. They appear to be of acceptable quality but do not take my original Schlage keys (which came with my very expensive front door fittings) without much fuss. The keyway is correct and fits the hammer, but the keyway is a bit tight (same on both units purchased). I say my…

  • Easy to read control panel

Fantastic cylinder for re-keying old sliding glass doors

I needed a key for all the locks in my house. The problem was I had 2 old sliding glass doors in the back of the house that had old cylinders "I don't know what brand of key was used" and I needed new Schlage-like cylinders to get my new key from the Schlage- to fit entrance . . They worked great and fit perfectly. Each set contains 2 keys. But be CAREFUL which model you buy. "E 2104" kits come with "same keys" according to the manufacturer, meaning if you bought 2 or 10 cylinders all cylinders

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • I can't tell

I fitted this lock cylinder to a Pella Thermastar sliding door that required the plug to be knocked out of the handle to make a hole. That works fine. In fact, the shaft was just the length needed to hook into the internal latch that controlled the toggle switch. (This required removing the existing cap, but that's pretty obvious during installation.) The original key didn't fit in the lock slot; Luckily I had a suitable example of the Schlage key in the aftermarket. I was also able to…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
