Falcon FAL-A05183-000 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What lip length should I order on the Falcon A05183-000 T-strike?
Lip length is picked off the frame, not the lock. The A05183-000 comes in 9/16 inch, 1 inch, 1-9/16 inch, 1-13/16 inch, 2-1/16 inch and 2-5/16 inch. Measure from the centerline of the strike opening out past the face of the stop to the edge of the frame or trim the latch has to ride over. Too short and the latch drags on the jamb, too long and the lip sticks past the frame where it can catch. If you are replacing a worn strike, measure the lip on the old one and match it.
2) What is a T-strike and when do I use one instead of a flat ANSI strike?
A T-strike is a lipped strike whose plate body is narrow at the top and bottom and wider through the latch opening, giving it the T outline. It is used on wood and hollow metal jambs prepped for that smaller T cutout rather than the full 4-7/8 inch ANSI square-corner mortise. The lip guides the latch across the gap between door edge and jamb so the door pulls closed without the latch catching. The Falcon A05183-000 is the T-strike form; if your frame already carries a full ANSI prep, a T-strike will not cover that mortise.
3) Can a Deltana SP2753 or Emtek 83223 strike plate be used in place of a Falcon A05183-000 T-strike?
They serve a different latch. The Falcon A05183-000 is a lipped T-strike for commercial Falcon mechanical lock assemblies, supplied in lip lengths of 9/16 inch, 1 inch, 1-9/16 inch, 1-13/16 inch, 2-1/16 inch and 2-5/16 inch so the lip can be matched to the door and frame reveal. The Deltana SP2753 is a deadbolt strike plate measuring 2-3/4 inch by 1-1/4 inch in steel, and the Emtek 83223 is a standard deadbolt strike plate with square corners. Neither carries a lip to guide a latchbolt, so neither substitutes for the T-strike on a latching lockset.
4) Is the Codelocks ASA strike plate an equivalent to the Falcon A05183-000?
No. The Codelocks ASA strike plate is an ASA-profile strike in a stainless steel finish, sized to the ASA cutout in the frame. The Falcon A05183-000 is a T-strike with a lip, ordered by lip length in six sizes and in finishes 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome and 626 satin chrome, plus 630 satin stainless in the 9/16 inch lip. The frame prep differs, so choose by the cutout already in the jamb.
5) What finishes does the Falcon A05183-000 strike plate come in, and do all of them come in every lip length?
Five finishes cover the 1 inch, 1-9/16 inch, 1-13/16 inch, 2-1/16 inch and 2-5/16 inch lips: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 625 bright chrome and 626 satin chrome. The 9/16 inch lip is offered in 630 satin stainless. So if you are standardizing a building in 626 satin chrome, the short 9/16 inch lip is not part of that group.
6) Is the Falcon A05183-000 a genuine Falcon part for repairing existing Falcon locks?
Yes, it is a Falcon original replacement strike for Falcon mechanical lock assemblies, sold as a repair part rather than a complete lock. Facilities running Falcon cylindrical hardware use it to swap out strikes that have been bent, worn at the lip, or refinished past saving, without touching the lockset in the door.
7) My door does not latch fully and the alignment has shifted. Do I need an adjustable strike instead of this Falcon T-strike?
The A05183-000 is a fixed T-strike, so it reproduces the original opening position. It fixes a damaged or wrong-lip strike, not a frame that has moved. If the jamb has settled and you need to chase the latch, an adjustable strike is the better fix, and ZenSupply carries the Kwikset 81825 6-way adjustable deadlatch strike and the Kwikset 80318 full round adjustable strike.
8) My latch does not line up with the strike - should I get an adjustable strike instead of the Falcon T-strike?
An adjustable strike is a different repair path. The Kwikset 81825 is a 6 way adjustable deadlatch and the Kwikset 80318 is a full round adjustable strike, both intended where alignment needs to be dialed in. The Falcon A05183-000 is a fixed T-strike whose fit is set by choosing the lip length - 9/16 inch through 2-5/16 inch - to match the frame reveal, and it is a drop-in replacement for a worn T-strike in a compatible Falcon mechanical lock assembly.
9) Is this strike suitable for a commercial building, or is it a residential part?
It is a commercial-duty part, intended for Falcon mechanical lock installs in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant housing and municipal buildings. Property managers keeping a few lip lengths on the shelf can cover most of the door openings in a building from stock.
10) Does the Falcon A05183-000 strike come with a dust box?
The A05183-000 is the strike plate itself. If the jamb pocket behind it is open or torn up, order a strike box separately; ZenSupply stocks the Kwikset 81640 strike box and the Kwikset 81231-001 metal strike dust box.
11) Does ordering the Falcon A05183-000 also get me a strike box for the frame mortise?
The A05183-000 is the T-strike plate itself, ordered by finish and lip length. If a dust box or strike box is needed behind it, those are separate items - the Kwikset 81640 strike box and the Kwikset 81231-001 metal strike dust box are catalogued as their own parts. Confirm the mortise depth in the frame before deciding whether a box is part of the job.
