Falcon A09897-000-00 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Falcon locks does the A09897-000-00 #4 cam work with?
The A09897-000-00 is the #4 cam for Falcon conventional mortise cylinders used in Falcon M Series non-deadbolt functions. It is the part that sets the cylinder-to-lockset engagement on those M Series mortise locks, so it is the right cam for lever and knob (non-deadbolt) M Series functions, not for a deadbolt function.
2) My Falcon mortise lock is a deadbolt function - is the A09897-000-00 #4 cam the right part?
No. The A09897-000-00 #4 cam is specified for Falcon M Series non-deadbolt functions, so a deadbolt function mortise lock takes a different cam profile. If the goal is a keyed deadbolt cylinder rather than a cam swap, the Kaba Ilco 1549 series is a key-in-deadbolt cylinder and the Kaba Ilco 1539 series is a key-in-knob/lever universal cylinder, both catalogued with a deadbolt function. Match the lockset's required cam before ordering a bare cam, because cam profile is what determines whether the cylinder drives the lock case at all.
3) The Falcon A09897-000-00 is just the cam - what do I order if the whole mortise cylinder needs replacing instead?
The Falcon A09897-000-00 is the #4 cam alone, a replacement part for Falcon conventional mortise cylinders in M Series non-deadbolt functions, and it does not include a cylinder body, plug, or keys. If the cylinder itself is worn or you are rekeying to a different system, you need a complete mortise cylinder housing. The Corbin Russwin 1000 Grade 1 series mortise cylinder in 1-1/2 inch length ships with an A02 straight cam, and the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 series 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing ships with an A01 cloverleaf cam. Both are complete mortise cylinders rather than a bare cam, so confirm the cam profile the lockset requires before ordering, since those two arrive with different cams.
4) Can I use the Falcon A09897-000-00 cam on a rim cylinder behind an exit device?
No. The A09897-000-00 is a mortise cylinder cam for Falcon conventional mortise cylinders, and rim cylinders drive an exit device through a tailpiece rather than a cam. For rim applications, the Schlage 20-021 is a 6-pin rim cylinder with a vertical tailpiece cam and the Schlage 20-022 is the same 6-pin rim cylinder with a horizontal tailpiece cam; both ship with 2 keys. The Corbin Russwin 3070 is a 6-pin rim cylinder housing with a 1-7/8 inch tailpiece. Choose the orientation or tailpiece length the exit device chassis calls for.
5) Do I have to replace the whole mortise cylinder, or can I just change the cam?
Changing the cam is the point of this part. The A09897-000-00 lets a locksmith or maintenance tech restore correct mortise cylinder function on a Falcon M Series lock without swapping out the entire cylinder assembly, so existing keying stays as it is.
6) How many cams come in the Falcon A09897-000-00 pack?
Ten cams per pack. That quantity suits a rekey or service program covering multiple doors, or shelf stock for a locksmith van, rather than a one-door repair.
7) I need a complete mortise cylinder, not just a cam. What are my options?
A cam alone will not help if the cylinder itself is worn or you are changing keyways. For a full mortise cylinder, ZenSupply carries the Corbin Russwin 1000 Series Grade 1 mortise cylinder in 1-1/2 inch with an A02 straight cam, the Corbin Russwin 1070 Grade 1 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with A01 cloverleaf cam, and the Detex MC65 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway. Match cam style and cylinder length to the lock you are working on.
8) Will this Falcon cam fit a rim cylinder or an interchangeable core?
No. It is a mortise cylinder cam. Rim cylinders drive a tailpiece instead, for example the Schlage 20-021 with a vertical tailpiece cam or the 20-022 with a horizontal one, and interchangeable-core products like the BEST 1C 5-pin core are a different platform again. Use the #4 cam only on a Falcon conventional mortise cylinder.
9) We are moving our Falcon openings to interchangeable core so we can rekey in-house. Does a cam swap get us there?
No. Changing the cam on a conventional Falcon mortise cylinder keeps it a conventional keyed cylinder that a locksmith has to pin. To rekey at the door, you need an interchangeable core system. The BEST 1C series is a standard 5-pin cylinder core, the BEST 1CB is a 150 series interchangeable core cylinder, and the BEST 1CDF is a drill resistant patented interchangeable core in 7-pin brass, also 150 series. On the Schlage side, the 20-057 is a 6-pin full size interchangeable core rim cylinder with a convertible tailpiece cam. Interchangeable core requires the matching core-prepped housing, so plan the housing and the core together rather than as a parts swap.
10) What mortise cylinder should I look at for an aluminum storefront deadlock rather than a Falcon M Series lockset?
The Falcon A09897-000-00 #4 cam serves Falcon M Series non-deadbolt mortise locksets, which is a hollow metal and wood door application rather than a narrow stile storefront. For storefront deadlocks, the Adams Rite 4036 is a Grade 1 five-pin mortise cylinder in the 4036 series with a 1/2 inch minimum door thickness. If the storefront opening needs a keyed pull instead of a flush cylinder, the Adams Rite 4025 is a five pin tumbler cylinder pull with through-screws for the MS1847 deadlock, and the 4024 is the same pull with trim plate mounting. The 4026 is the five pin cylinder pull for the 5017 wood door deadlock.
11) Is the Falcon A09897-000-00 a drop-in cam for a Schlage L9000 mortise lock?
Treat it as Falcon-specific. The A09897-000-00 #4 cam is engineered for Falcon conventional mortise cylinders in Falcon M Series non-deadbolt functions, and cam profiles are matched to the lock case they drive. For Schlage L9000 mortise locks, the Corbin Russwin 1080 Grade 1 series is a 1-1/2 inch 6-pin LFIC mortise cylinder built for L9000 locks with the A01 Schlage L cam. Confirm the cam callout in the lock's own literature before mixing cams across manufacturers.
12) Is this Falcon cam a genuine OEM part or aftermarket?
Genuine Falcon OEM. The A09897-000-00 is an authentic Falcon lock part, which matters on a cam because the profile has to match the lockset's hub tolerances exactly to drive the lock correctly.
13) We buy the A09897-000-00 in tens for service stock. What else belongs in a mortise and rim cylinder service kit?
The A09897-000-00 ships as a 10-pack of #4 cams, sized for maintenance programs and multi-door service on Falcon M Series mortise locksets. Rounding out a commercial service cart usually means carrying complete housings alongside the cams: the Corbin Russwin 1070 1-1/4 inch 6-pin mortise housing with A01 cloverleaf cam and the Corbin Russwin 1000 1-1/2 inch mortise cylinder with A02 straight cam cover two common lengths and cam profiles, while the Schlage 20-021 and 20-022 6-pin rim cylinders cover vertical and horizontal tailpiece exit devices. A Detex MC65 1-1/8 inch 6-pin mortise cylinder in Schlage C keyway suits openings already keyed to C.
14) The opening only needs a cylinder that looks keyed but does not operate anything. Is the Falcon cam relevant?
No. The A09897-000-00 is a functioning cam that transmits plug rotation to a Falcon M Series mortise lock case, so it exists to make the cylinder do work. For a non-operating appearance match, the BEST 12E series dummy rim cylinder with a 1-5/32 inch diameter is a dummy cylinder rather than an operating one. Use the dummy on inactive leaves and the operating cam and cylinder only where the lock actually has to throw.
15) Is the Falcon #4 cam suitable for commercial buildings or is it a residential part?
It is a commercial-duty part, used in offices, schools, healthcare, government, and hospitality buildings running Falcon M Series mortise locksets. Facility maintenance teams standardized on Falcon hardware are the typical buyer.
