Schlage - Commercial Security Products

Classic keyways are those available from Schlage before the introduction of Everest®. Conventional (non-Primus) cylinders with these keyways are standard for residential and retail products, and also make up Schlage's large installed base of fine 20th century commercial key systems. Everest C Family keyways are now standard for new Schlage commercial key systems and commercial stock products but Classic keyways can still be specified to support existing key systems.

Classic keys are not patented and the most common can be duplicated by anyone such as home building centers, mall stands, hardware stores, commercial locksmiths and contract hardware dealers.

Key systems using these keyways are generally older, and it is not possible to account for copies of all (master) keys. End users who wish to regain control of their security should consider rekeying to Everest D Family restricted keyways and/or Primus high security cylinders.
