About this item
The Accentra 2153 is a conventional 6-pin mortise cylinder from the former Yale Commercial cylinder line, now branded as Accentra by ASSA ABLOY. If you've been searching "yale 2153" or "accentra 2153" this is the same product. ASSA ABLOY transitioned the Yale Commercial brand to Accentra, but the product numbers, specifications, designs, and manufacturing are unchanged. Orders from American Locksets may arrive in either Yale Commercial or Accentra packaging depending on inventory at the time your order ships.
This specific listing is the 1-1/4-inch length (114 in the model code). The 2153 series comes in multiple lengths 1-1/8 inch, 1-1/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch, 1-5/8 inch, and 1-3/4 inch and length selection matters for the application. Cylinder length needs to match the escutcheon depth and door thickness of your specific lock and trim combination. Using the wrong length results in a cylinder that either doesn't protrude enough to engage the cam properly or protrudes too far and creates an exposed shoulder.
Cam Compatibility: The 2160 Yale/Sargent Cam
Every 2153 cylinder ships with the Yale/Sargent cam, part number 2160. That cam is what physically operates the lock's bolt or latch mechanism when the key turns. The 2160 cam is the correct cam for Yale mortise locks and Sargent mortise locks when the cylinder is specified for those platforms. If you're replacing an existing cylinder in a Yale or Sargent mortise lock and the existing cylinder has a 2160 cam, the 2153 is the correct replacement.
Keyways Available in the 2153
The 2153 comes in multiple keyways depending on your facility's key system. The GA keyway is the standard open Yale keyway commonly stocked and the most frequently specified for general commercial applications. The PARA (Paracentric) keyway is a more restricted profile. The GB, GC, GD, GE, GF, and GH keyways are additional Yale keyway profiles that can be specified for keying interoperability or key system management needs.
Keying options at order: Keyed Different (KD) each cylinder ships with a unique key. Keyed Alike (KA) specify a key code and cylinders are all keyed to the same key. 0-Bitted cylinder ships with no pins set, unkeyed, ready to be pinned to your key system by a locksmith or key system manager.
