FALCON MA SERIES OVERVIEW
The Falcon MA Series mortise locks are tough, stylish, and offer excellent value. They deliver heavy-duty Grade 1 performance at an attractive price point and incorporate robust components and sturdy design while offering stylish designs and many finish options.
They're well-suited for any office, educational facility, hospital, or other commercial settings.
The MA series is one of Falcon's toughest and most dependable locks and are designed to handle high-traffic, high-abuse environments. A wide variety of trim styles and finish options makes the MA series easy to match to existing or new design environments. For keyed models/functions, cylinders offered include the Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) cylinders that can be removed quickly for easy, fast re-keying in high turnover environments.
ZenSupply carries one of the most comprehensive offering of Falcon MA Series locks. If we don't list it or can't build it from parts in inventory, it's unlikely to be found anywhere else.
