Falcon B101S D 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon B101 passage lever fit a 1-3/8 inch door, and what about a thicker 2 inch door?
The B101 covers the whole range from 1-3/8 inches up to 2 inches, so it works on older 1-3/8 inch interior doors, standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors, and heavier 2 inch leaves without a separate part number. Drill for the 2-3/4 inch backset and the 3-1/2 inch rose will cover a standard cylindrical prep.
2) Does the Falcon B101 lever need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The B101 is non-handed and can be installed on either swing in the field without taking it apart to re-hand it, so a property manager can stock one part number and fit it wherever it lands. That also means a lever pulled off one door goes straight onto another with the opposite swing.
3) Does the Falcon B101 lock? What is passage function actually good for?
It does not lock, and there is no key. Passage/closet function means the lever retracts the latch from both sides at all times, so it just holds a door closed. Use it on corridor doors, closets, storage rooms, and any opening where you want a latch and a lever but no security. If you need to lock a bathroom or bedroom from the inside, that is privacy function, not this. If you need a keyed opening, look at a keyed function like entrance or storeroom.
4) Can the Falcon B101 go on a fire rated door in a commercial corridor?
Yes. The B101 is UL listed with a 3-hour A label fire rating, and it carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 2 certification. The lever design also meets ADA. That combination is what an institutional or MRO buyer needs for corridor and closet openings in schools, healthcare, and government work.
5) Which passage lever should I use if the opening needs Grade 1 instead of Grade 2?
The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock in passage/closet function, carrying a fire rating and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The Design Hardware X75 is another Grade 1 passage lever lockset with a flat lever, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon B101 is Grade 2 and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, so on thinner doors the Falcon range reaches where those Grade 1 units do not.
6) What Grade 2 passage lever covers the same door thickness range as the Falcon B101?
The Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever lock with the Withnell design, listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the same range the Falcon B101 covers. The Arrow GL01 is also a Grade 2 non-keyed passage cylindrical lock with a Sierra lever, but its range starts at 1-3/4 inch, so it will not take a 1-3/8 inch door.
7) The door needs to lock. What replaces a Falcon B101 when passage function is not enough?
The Falcon B101 is non-keyed passage/closet function, so the latch retracts from either side at all times. For a keyed opening in the same Grade 2 class, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock with a lever and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with the Withnell design, both covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. For a bathroom or bedroom, the Hager 2540 is the Grade 2 privacy lever in the same family.
8) Is Grade 2 enough for a school or apartment building, or should I be buying Grade 1?
Grade 2 is the medium duty tier, and the B101 is built for that: through-bolted trim with thread sealant coated screws and individual heavy duty springs so the lever does not sag or work loose over time. That is fine for offices, closets, corridors, and multi-family. For a high traffic entry or a door that takes abuse, step up to a Grade 1 passage lever such as the Corbin Russwin CL3110 or the Design Hardware X75.
9) What lever styles and finishes does the Falcon B101 come in?
Two lever designs, Dane (D) and Quantum (Q), each offered in five finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. Every finish is available in both lever styles, so you can match the trim already on the floor and still pick the lever shape you want. 626 satin chrome is the usual commercial default.
10) What is the closest alternative to the Falcon B101 passage lever from another brand?
Straight equivalents at the same grade and function include the Hager 2510 Withnell passage lever, which also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta from the 5300 Series. The Arrow GL01 with Sierra lever is Grade 2 passage as well but starts at 1-3/4 inches, so it will not go on a 1-3/8 inch door. For a Grade 1 step up in the same passage function, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is vandal resistant and fire rated but only covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
11) I need a lever on a closet door that does not operate anything. Is the B101 the right part?
No. Passage function on the B101 still includes a working latch and a turning lever. For a lever that is fixed and purely decorative, on an inactive leaf or a false door, you want a dummy trim instead, such as the BEST 7KC Series single dummy at Grade 2 or the BEST 9K Series 1DT at Grade 1. Those mount to the face with no latch bore.
12) Will the Falcon B101 match keyed Falcon B Series locks already on my other doors?
Visually yes, mechanically there is nothing to key. The B101 is part of the Falcon B Series and shares the Dane and Quantum lever designs and the same finish range, so a passage closet door reads identically to the keyed openings around it. Since it is non-keyed, it simply sits outside the master key system rather than being keyed into it.
13) Is a Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever the same thing as a Falcon B101?
No. The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever set covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is the Grade 3 privacy version of the same trim. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical passage lock rated for medium duty with a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thickness range. If the specification on the drawing calls for a commercial Grade 2 lever, the Grade 3 Kwikset units do not meet it.
14) What is the difference between a Falcon B101 and a dummy lever like the BEST 7KC 1DT?
The BEST 7KC Series 1DT is single dummy trim, a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed lever with no latch mechanism at all, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent. Dummy trim mounts to the door face as a pull. The Falcon B101 is a working cylindrical passage latchset with a 1/2 inch throw latch and an ANSI strike, so it actually latches the door closed. Order dummy trim only for the inactive leaf of a pair or a false door.
15) Is there a lighter-duty passage lever than the Falcon B101 for interior residential-grade doors?
The Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. The Bravura Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2 with round or square trim, and the Bravura Miramar is a Grade 2 passage leverset in US4 satin brass. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 commercial medium duty lever certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 with a UL 3-hour A label fire rating, which is what a fire-rated commercial opening requires.
16) Can I use a Falcon B101 where the opening needs keyless code entry?
No, the Falcon B101 is a mechanical non-electronic passage lever with no code entry. For keyless access on a passage-function opening, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliant design covering 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version of the same. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
17) What looks like a substitute for a Falcon B101 but will not work on a standard cylindrical bore?
Two things in the same aisle are not drop-in replacements. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever, trim for an ED8000 pushpad exit device and the CL3300 cylindrical lock series, not a complete lockset. The Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is heavy duty escutcheon lever trim in entry function, again exit device trim. The Falcon B101 is a complete cylindrical passage latchset with a 3-1/2 inch rose and its own latch and strike.
18) Is the Falcon B101 a residential grade lock or built for commercial use?
Commercial. It is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lockset intended for office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-family, and government work. Residential Grade 3 levers like the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton or the Callan Asheville are a lighter class of product and are not the same thing.
19) Does the Falcon B101 need power or wiring run to the door?
No wiring. The B101 is a purely mechanical cylindrical lever, so nothing changes at the opening when the power drops and there is no transfer hinge or power supply to plan for. If the job genuinely needs an electrified cylindrical lever, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a 12VAC/DC fail safe lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
20) I need a knob instead of a lever on the same kind of opening. What is comparable to the Falcon B101?
The Falcon B101 is a lever handle, non-handed and ADA compliant. In knob trim, the Arrow MK02-TA is a Tudor knob non-keyed cylindrical lock in privacy function, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty ball knob asylum function lock. Note that knob trim does not satisfy ADA accessible operation the way a lever does, which decides the question in most commercial and institutional openings.
21) For a decorative interior passage lever instead of a commercial one, what compares to the Falcon B101?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is a decorative passage leverset, offered alongside privacy and left and right hand half dummy versions of the same 5103 trim. The Falcon B101 is a commercial Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever, non-handed so one part covers both hands of door. On a decorative half dummy the hand must be specified when ordering.
