Falcon K101S A 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Falcon K101 lock, and what does passage function actually do?
The K101 does not lock. It is a non-keyed passage set (ANSI F109-1): both levers always retract the latch, there is no button, no cylinder, and no key. Use it on hall, closet, and corridor doors where you only want the door to stay latched shut. If you need to lock the room, you need a privacy, entry, storeroom, or classroom function instead.
2) Do I need to order a right hand or left hand Falcon K101?
No handing to specify. The K101 ships with non-handed levers, so the same set works on a left or right hand door and one part number covers every opening in the building. For a property manager or facility stockroom that means one item on the shelf instead of two.
3) What is the closest Grade 1 passage cylindrical lever lock to the Falcon K101 from another manufacturer?
The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is the nearest match: it is a Grade 1 passage/closet cylindrical lever lock with a fire rating, the same function and grade the Falcon K101 carries. The Design Hardware X75 is also a Grade 1 passage lever lockset. The difference that decides the order is door thickness: the K101 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the CL3110 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the X75 is built for a 1-3/4 inch door.
4) I need a passage lever for a 1-3/8 inch door - which locks fit that thickness?
The Falcon K101 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, so it fits a 1-3/8 inch door directly. Among other passage levers, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Arrow GL01 Grade 2 passage lock and the Design Hardware J75 Grade 2 passage lever will not fit: the GL01 starts at 1-3/4 inch and the J75 is built for 1-3/4 inch.
5) The door needs to lock - what do I order instead of a passage lever?
The Falcon K101 is a non-keyed passage function, so it latches but never locks. For a keyed opening in the same cylindrical lever format, the Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 Classroom is the Grade 1 classroom function. For a stockroom or closet that must stay secured, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt. For a bathroom, the Hager 2540 covers privacy duty in the Withnell lever family.
6) Can I use a dummy lever in place of a passage lock on a closet door?
No, they do different jobs. The Falcon K101 is a passage function cylindrical lock with a working latch - it includes a 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch latch with a 1/2 inch throw on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so the door stays shut. A dummy such as the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim, the Accentra 455LN Augusta Grade 1 single dummy, or the BEST 7KC 1DT Grade 2 dummy is surface trim with no latch at all, for a door held by a ball catch or roller. Order a dummy only for the inactive leaf or a pull-only door.
7) Is a Grade 1 passage lever worth it over Grade 2 for a school or hospital corridor?
For high traffic openings, yes. The K101 is certified ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1, heavy duty, with four through-bolts holding the chassis to the door and a clutching lever that spins free rather than transmitting force into the chassis when someone yanks on it. Grade 2 passage levers like the Hager 2510 or the Accentra 5301LN Augusta are the lighter duty answer for lower traffic doors such as offices and apartments interiors.
8) What are the other Grade 1 commercial passage lever options besides the Falcon K101?
The closest cross-brand equivalent is the Corbin Russwin CL3110 from the CL3100 Series, a Grade 1 fire rated vandal resistant passage lever. Its door range is 1-3/4 to 2 inches, so on a 1-3/8 inch door the K101 is the one that fits. The Design Hardware X75 flat lever is another Grade 1 passage set, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors only.
9) Is the Falcon K101 an electrified or access control lock?
No, the K101 is purely mechanical, non-electronic and non-keyed. There is no wiring, no request-to-exit, no fail safe or fail secure option. For an electrified cylindrical lever, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe lever in 12VAC/DC. For keyless mechanical entry, the Lockey 2835 pushbutton lever set covers 1-3/16 to 2 inch doors.
10) I only need a lever on one side that does not turn, is the Falcon K101 the right part?
No. The K101 is a working passage set, both levers retract the latch. For a non-functioning pull on an inactive leaf or a closet slab, you want a dummy trim instead: the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version.
11) Is there a lighter-grade passage lever if Grade 1 is more than the opening needs?
Yes. The Falcon K101 is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 for high-traffic commercial use. For an office or interior door that does not need that, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the Accentra 4601LN are Grade 2 passage/hall/closet cylindrical lever locks, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever lock with a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door range. On a light residential-style interior door, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) What is the difference between the Falcon K101 and a keyless pushbutton lever like the Lockey 2835?
The Falcon K101 is a mechanical non-electronic passage lever - no code, no key, the lever always retracts the latch. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with a passage function and ADA compliance for 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 2835DC adds a double combination over the same door range. Choose the K101 when the opening only needs latching, and a Lockey when entry has to be restricted by a code without issuing keys.
13) Is a Bravura or Baldwin passage leverset an equivalent to the Falcon K101?
They serve different openings. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 commercial heavy duty non-handed passage lock. The Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, Tampa and Miramar are Grade 2 passage leversets, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 is a passage lever with a 5048 rose in a decorative style. For a high-traffic commercial corridor the Grade 1 K101 is the specification match; the Bravura and Baldwin levers suit openings where appearance drives the choice.
14) Do I have to order a left hand and right hand version like I do with some levers?
No. The Falcon K101 is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings and reduces what you stock. By contrast the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is sold as a left hand part and a separate right hand part, which means confirming the swing before ordering. On a job with mixed swings, the non-handed K101 is one line item instead of two.
15) What do I use for an asylum or utility opening instead of a passage lever?
The Falcon K101 passage function leaves the door unlocked at all times, which does not suit a utility or institutional opening. The Dexter C1000 Asylum is a Grade 1 asylum function cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum lock with a ball knob and a Schlage C keyway conventional cylinder. Pick the Dexter when the opening is specified Grade 1 and the Arrow when a knob and Schlage C keying are what the facility already runs.
16) What lever styles and finishes does the Falcon K101 come in?
Three lever styles, Avalon (A), Dane (D), and Quantum (Q), each in 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed or 626 satin chrome. That is six combinations total. 626 is the usual commercial standard if you are matching existing hardware in an office or institutional building; 613 suits darker architectural trim.
17) What is the Falcon K101 lever made of and will it hold up in a damp or coastal building?
Chassis parts are brass or steel, zinc plated and dichromated for rust resistance, with stainless steel springs. That plating and the stainless springs are the corrosion story for humid interiors, natatoriums, and coastal buildings. Lever security caps also resist lever removal and the sag levers develop after years of use.
