Falcon A08556-000-00 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What do Falcon A08556-000-00 construction master pins actually do in a cylinder?
They set up construction keying. The pin lets a construction master key run the cylinder during the build, and the first turn of the owner's permanent key voids the construction key for good. No return trip to re-pin every lock at turnover, which is why contractors and locksmiths use them on new construction and renovation jobs. Falcon part number A08556-000-00.
2) Will Falcon construction master pins work in my Schlage or BEST cylinders?
No. The A08556-000-00 pins are genuine Falcon components intended for Falcon mechanical lock cylinders. Pin tolerances and stack heights are brand specific, so don't drop them into another maker's cylinder. If you are keying BEST small format interchangeable cores, that is a different pin kit and a different core platform, such as the BEST 1C Series 5-pin core.
3) I need to change over a building at turnover. Is a construction pin the right approach or should I swap cores instead?
Two different strategies. With construction master pins like the A08556-000-00 you key the Falcon cylinders once and the owner's first key turn kills the construction key, so nothing gets pulled at handover. The alternative is an interchangeable core platform where you physically swap the core, such as the BEST 1CB 150 Series interchangeable core or the Schlage 20-057 full size interchangeable core rim cylinder. Cores cost more up front but let you re-key repeatedly without disassembly; construction pins are the cheaper one-time changeover.
4) Is the Falcon A08556-000-00 a replacement cylinder, or just the pins?
The Falcon A08556-000-00 is a 100-pack of construction master pins - loose cylinder replacement parts used inside a cylinder, not a cylinder you can install in a door. If you need an actual keyed cylinder body, that is a different class of part: a mortise cylinder such as the Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 series 1-1/2 inch with A02 straight cam, or a rim cylinder such as the Schlage Commercial 20-021 6-pin with vertical tailpiece cam. Order the A08556-000-00 only when the cylinder housing is already in hand and you are pinning it.
5) What can I use instead of construction master pins to control keys during construction?
The alternative to pinning construction masters into a cylinder is an interchangeable core program, where a temporary core is swapped for the permanent one at turnover with a control key instead of disassembling the cylinder. Examples include the BEST 1C series standard 5-pin cylinder core, the BEST Peaks 1CB 150 series interchangeable core, and the Schlage Commercial 20-057 6-pin FSIC rim cylinder with convertible tailpiece cam. The Falcon A08556-000-00 pins suit jobs where the cylinders are conventionally pinned and you want the construction key to void automatically when the owner's key is first used.
6) How many pins come in the Falcon A08556-000-00 pack?
One hundred construction master pins per pack. Since you use one pin per cylinder in a standard construction keying setup, a single pack covers a large multi-door project and gives a locksmith shop bench stock for re-keying work.
7) Do the construction master pins come with keys or cylinders?
No. The A08556-000-00 pack is pins only, a replacement part for cylinders you already have or are building up. You still need the Falcon cylinders, your construction master key, and the permanent owner keys cut to your keyway. Cylinders themselves are separate items, for example a mortise or rim cylinder in the keyway your system uses.
8) I need to re-key a knob or lever lock, not pin a Falcon cylinder - what should I order?
Falcon A08556-000-00 construction master pins are loose pins for use with compatible Falcon mechanical lock cylinders, so they only help if you are pinning a cylinder yourself. To replace the cylinder in a key-in-knob or lever lock outright, the Kaba Ilco 1539 series key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder or the 1599 key-in-knob replacement cylinder cover that job, and the 1579 is the knob and lever cylinder for Sargent. For a key-in-deadbolt, the Kaba Ilco 1549 series applies.
9) Will Falcon A08556-000-00 construction master pins work in an aluminum storefront deadlock?
The A08556-000-00 pins are supplied for compatible Falcon mechanical lock cylinders, so the match is to the cylinder, not the lock body. Storefront openings typically take an Adams Rite mortise cylinder such as the 4036 series, a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder, or a cylinder pull like the 4024 or 4025 for the MS1847 deadlock/deadlatch; the 4026 is the wood door version for the 5017 deadlock/deadlatch. Confirm the cylinder brand in the opening before ordering Falcon pins for it.
10) What is the difference between ordering Falcon construction master pins and ordering a dummy cylinder for a jobsite?
They solve different problems. The Falcon A08556-000-00 construction master pins let a live cylinder accept a temporary construction key that drops out when the owner's key is first turned. A dummy cylinder such as the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder, 1-5/32 inch diameter, is a non-keyed filler that holds the prep during construction with no key function at all. Use the pins when trades need working access, the dummy when the opening only needs the hole covered.
11) Is this a commercial part or something for residential locks?
Commercial. The A08556-000-00 pins are catalogued for commercial mechanical lock work, the kind of job where dozens or hundreds of cylinders get keyed during the build and handed over to an owner key system later. Office, school, healthcare, multi-tenant and municipal projects are the typical use.
12) If the building owner wants drill resistance and patented key control at turnover, what cylinder pairs with a construction keying program?
Falcon A08556-000-00 construction master pins handle the temporary-access phase in a conventionally pinned Falcon cylinder. For the permanent side where the owner wants patented key control, the BEST 1CDF drill resistant preferred patented interchangeable core is a 7-pin brass 150 series core, and the BEST 1CB Peaks 150 series is an interchangeable core in the same family. Those are swapped in as cores rather than re-pinned, so a facility standardizing on them would not need the construction pins on those openings.
13) Do Falcon A08556-000-00 pins go into a Medeco or Emtek residential cylinder?
No - the A08556-000-00 is a commercial Falcon lock part intended for compatible Falcon mechanical lock cylinders. Cylinders like the Medeco 1075127 5-pin rim type lazy motion single cylinder for handlesets and deadbolts, the Medeco 1065244 5-pin rim lazy motion with Emtek tailpiece, or the Emtek CY4 cylinder are separate keying platforms with their own pinning. Match the pins to the cylinder manufacturer.
