Falcon D221P 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon D221 deadbolt fit a 2-inch thick door?
Yes. The D221 covers door thickness from 1-3/8 inches all the way to 2-1/4 inches, so a 2 inch door is well inside range. That upper end is unusual for a Grade 2 deadbolt, most competing medium duty bolts stop at 1-3/4. If you are working a mixed building with 1-3/8 inch older interior doors and 1-3/4 inch commercial openings, one part number covers both.
2) Does the Falcon D221 deadbolt work with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset?
Both. The bolt is adjustable to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches with a lock-in-place helix, so you do not have to know the existing bore centerline before you order. Set it on the bench, drop it in the cross bore, and it stays where you put it. Those are the two standard backsets you will meet on a bored door prep.
3) What is on the inside of a Falcon D221 deadbolt, a thumbturn or a plate?
A blank rose, no thumbturn and no second cylinder. The D221 is cylinder x blank rose, keyed outside only, blind inside. That is deliberate: you use it where you do not want the door unlocked from the inside without a key, or where the bolt is thrown from outside at close and nobody is meant to be behind it. If you need occupants to throw and retract the bolt by hand, this is the wrong function. Nearly every peer deadbolt is cylinder x thumbturn, including the Arrow DBX61, the Cal-Royal CB160, and the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder. For a keyed-outside, blank-inside cylindrical deadlock in Grade 1, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is the closest equivalent.
4) Can I get Falcon D221 deadbolts keyed alike to match the rest of my building?
Yes, keyed alike is a selectable option on the D221 as an alternative to the standard keyed different. The stock cylinder is a 6-pin solid brass unit in the Falcon G keyway, and each lock ships with two nickel silver cut keys. If your building runs on Schlage, order the CP option instead and you get a 6-pin Schlage cylinder rather than the G keyway, which keeps the bolts on your existing key system. If your shop keys its own small format interchangeable cores, the B option ships less SFIC so you can load your core.
5) Is a Grade 2 deadbolt like the Falcon D221 enough for a commercial building, or do I need Grade 1?
The D221 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.5, 2001, Grade 2 and rated medium duty commercial. That is the right call for tenant doors, storage rooms, back-of-house, and offices behind a controlled perimeter. For a high traffic exterior door or an opening that takes abuse, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock like the Corbin Russwin DL3011, which covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors in the same cylinder x blank arrangement. Grade 1 is the top ANSI/BHMA durability and strength tier, Grade 2 the middle.
6) I need a deadbolt for a 2-inch door and most Grade 2 bolts stop at 1-3/4. What are my options?
The D221 is one of the few medium duty bolts that runs to 2-1/4 inches, covering 1-3/8 through 2-1/4. Most Grade 2 alternatives cap out lower: the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder and the Cal-Royal ED500 both stop at 1-3/4, the Dexter DB1000 at 1-7/8, and the Hager 3215 at 1-3/4. If you want a thumbturn on a thick door, the Deltana 7312KA2 goes to 2 inches. For Grade 1 on the thickest doors, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4.
7) What deadbolt has a keyed outside and a blank plate inside instead of a thumbturn?
The Falcon D221 is exactly that configuration: cylinder x blank rose, so the outside is keyed and the inside carries a plain rose with no turn piece. If a Grade 1 version of the same idea is wanted, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 and DL3211 are both cylindrical deadlocks in a cylinder x blank arrangement at Grade 1. Most other commercial deadbolts in the class, such as the Arrow DBX61 and the Hager 3215, are cylinder x thumbturn and will put a turn piece on the inside face.
8) The occupants need to unlock from the inside without a key - what deadbolt should be used instead of the Falcon D221?
The D221 is a cylinder x blank rose deadbolt, so the inside face has no turn piece and the bolt is key-operated only. Where the inside must retract by hand, a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt is the right part: the Arrow DBX61 and the Cal-Royal CB160 are both Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts, and the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw in the same arrangement. For an egress opening that needs no key at all on either side, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside.
9) The spec calls for a Grade 1 deadbolt - what takes the place of the Falcon D221?
The D221 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.5 Grade 2 for medium duty commercial use, so a Grade 1 spec needs a different part. Keeping the keyed outside with a blank inside face, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 and DL3211 are Grade 1 cylindrical deadlocks in a cylinder x blank configuration. If the drawing allows a thumbturn inside, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.
10) Which commercial deadbolt fits a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Falcon D221 accepts door thickness from 1-3/8 inch through 2-1/4 inch, which covers thick commercial and clad doors as well as standard leaves. Among the comparable deadbolts, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 also reaches that range at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Deltana 7312KA2 double cylinder deadbolt runs 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Hager 3215 and 3214, the Dexter DB2000 single and double cylinder, and the Accentra D111 all stop at 1-3/4 inch, so they suit standard leaves only.
11) How well does the Falcon D221 hold up against forced entry or someone attacking the bolt?
Four things do the work here. The bolt is solid zinc with a hardened steel anti-saw pin insert, so a blade on the bolt binds instead of cutting. The outside trim ring is free spinning and tapered, which defeats a wrench or a pry bar getting purchase on the cylinder. A removable anti-pry shield covers the bolt mechanism against an ice pick worked in through the gap. And the strike is not just a plate, it is a metal dust box reinforcer anchored with three 3-inch screws that reach past the jamb into framing, which is what actually stops a kick-in. Most deadbolt failures are the frame giving up, not the bolt.
12) What is the bolt throw on the Falcon D221 and does it reach into a metal frame?
One inch of throw. That is the projection you need to get past a typical gap and land properly in the strike pocket on a commercial jamb, and it is why this reads as a commercial deadbolt rather than a residential one. Verify the throw at 1 inch after you set the backset and align to the 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 strike, because a bolt that only half enters the box gives you the security of a latch.
13) What is the difference between the Falcon D221 and a deadbolt with a thumbturn like the Arrow DBX61?
Function, not build. The D221 is keyed on the outside with a blank rose inside, so the bolt can only be moved with a key. The Arrow DBX61 is also Grade 2 but runs cylinder x thumbturn, letting anyone inside throw or retract it by hand. Pick the blank rose where you do not want the bolt operated from inside, and the thumbturn where an occupant needs to lock up from within. If you want a thumbturn with a wider door range, the Deltana 7312KA2 covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. One caution: check your local egress requirements before you specify a key-only bolt on an occupied space, because a blank rose means no free exit through that bolt.
14) Which deadbolt should be used instead of the Falcon D221 for keypad or credential access?
The Falcon D221 is a mechanical, non-electronic deadbolt operated by a 6-pin brass cylinder in the Falcon G keyway. For electronic control on a comparable opening, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override. The Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with key override for code entry without a full access control system.
15) Which deadbolts accept a small format interchangeable core if the Falcon D221 is ordered less cylinder?
The Falcon D221 is offered with a B less SFIC cylinder option, which ships the lock prepped for a small format interchangeable core supplied separately, alongside the conventional 6-pin G keyway and Schlage cylinder options. Comparable deadbolts prepped the same way include the Arrow E61 26D IC, a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core, and the Deltana CL200LAIC, a Grade 2 interchangeable core single deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
16) What is the equivalent of the Falcon D221 that is keyed on both sides?
The D221 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed on one side only. For a both-sides-keyed opening, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the Dexter DB2000-DCT is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt over the same thickness range. At Grade 1, the Design Hardware D1 Series double cylinder deadbolt is an extra heavy duty lock for 1-3/4 inch doors. Double cylinder locks are restricted on egress doors in many jurisdictions, so confirm the code requirement for the opening first.
17) Is a Grade 3 deadbolt an acceptable substitute for the Falcon D221 on an apartment or office door?
They are different duty classes. The Falcon D221 carries ANSI/BHMA A156.5 Grade 2 and is catalogued as a commercial lock. The Cal-Royal ED500 and Cal-Royal LSD are Grade 3 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder square trim deadbolt. If Grade 2 must be held but a thumbturn is wanted inside, the Callan 200S-G2 and the Bravura 310B Elite are Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts.
18) What looks like a Falcon D221 substitute but will not work in a bored deadbolt prep?
Several deadbolt-named parts take a different door prep entirely. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike for latchbolt and deadbolt functions, a frame component rather than a lock. The BEST 8T is a tubular deadbolt tube component from the T Series, and the Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer. The Dormakaba D900 and the Emtek 2050 and 2051 are mortise deadbolts, requiring a mortise pocket rather than the bored holes the Falcon D221 uses. The D221 is a bored deadbolt installed with a 1 inch housing diameter and a 1-1/8 inch x 2-1/4 inch faceplate.
19) Can a Schlage-keyed deadbolt be matched to an existing key system without changing brands?
The Falcon D221 ships standard with a 6-pin brass cylinder in the Falcon G keyway, and is also configurable with a 6-pin conventional Schlage cylinder, so it can join an existing Schlage-keyed system directly. Comparable deadbolts built around that keyway include the Hager 3115 and 3215 Grade 2 deadbolts and the Hager 3214 double cylinder, all listed with a Schlage C keyway, and the Dormakaba D900 mortise deadbolts, which use SC keyways keyed different.
20) What finishes does the Falcon D221 deadbolt come in, and will it match my existing lever hardware?
Five finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. Those are BHMA finish codes, so if your existing levers or closers are specified as 626, this bolt in 626 matches by code rather than by eye. All five are available across every cylinder option. One exception on the hardware side: the circular drive-in bolt option is offered in 626 only, so if you want a drive-in bolt you are taking satin chrome.
21) What deadbolt fits an opening that only has one side available for a bore?
The Falcon D221 is a through-bored deadbolt needing prep on both faces of the door, with a 1 inch housing diameter and door thickness from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Where only one face can be prepped, the Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt. For a surface-applied approach that avoids the bore altogether, the Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with key override.
