Keying a lock, this 1-1/8" rim cylinder is the replaceable keyed core for a rim lock -- turning the key operates the lock, and a worn, lost-key, or rekeyed core can be swapped out without replacing the whole lock. It threads into a rim lock mounted on the inside face of the door, turns the latch or bolt through the cam, and comes keyed and ready to install. Matching the cylinder length to the lock and the door thickness is what lets the key turn freely and the cam engage. It is a replacement and rekeying cylinder for rim locks.
