Falcon MA311 DG 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Falcon MA311 mortise lock be used on a fire-rated door?
Yes. The MA311 privacy mortise lock is UL listed for 3-hour fire doors, A label, so it's code-compliant on A label openings. Worth noting for a bed/bath application: it's a non-keyed privacy function, so there is no key override from the corridor side on the lock itself.
2) Do I have to order the Falcon MA311 handed, or can it be reversed on site?
Handing isn't something you specify. The MA311 is field reversible, so one unit covers left or right swing doors and you can re-hand it at the opening instead of stocking both hands. For a property manager keeping spares on the shelf, that's one part number covering every bedroom and bath door in the building.
3) Is there a vacant/occupied indicator option on the Falcon MA311 privacy lock?
Yes, and it's a choice you make when ordering. The MA311 is offered with or without an optional vacant/occupied indicator. Facilities that want staff or housekeeping to see door status at a glance (hotels, healthcare, dorms) should specify the indicator version, because it isn't something you can add to a plain unit later.
4) What else could I use instead of the Falcon MA311 for a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock?
The closest mechanical equivalent is the Cal-Royal NM8440, a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with a deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager 3840S is another Grade 1 privacy mortise lock, with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-3/4 to 2 inch door thickness range. If you want privacy plus electronic access control on the same opening, the Schlage CO-100 is a standalone electronic mortise lock in privacy function. The MA311 differs from all three in being a straight non-keyed mechanical privacy lock.
5) Will the Falcon MA311 work on a classroom or office door that needs to be locked with a key?
No. The MA311 is a non-keyed privacy lock, bed and bath function only, with no cylinder. For a classroom door use a keyed classroom mortise lock such as the Cal-Royal NM8070 or the Corbin Russwin ML2003. For an office or entrance door, the Cal-Royal NM8050 office/entrance mortise lockset is the function you want. Ordering a privacy lock for a keyed opening is the most common mistake on this part.
6) What is the closest equivalent to a Falcon MA311 privacy mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Falcon MA311 is a Grade 1 non-keyed privacy mortise lock for bed and bath openings. The closest peers by function and grade are the Hager 3840S, a 3800 Series Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches thick, and the Cal-Royal NM8440, a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset that carries a deadbolt in addition to the privacy latch and fits 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are privacy function mortise locks; the differences are the backset and door thickness range the peers publish and the deadbolt on the NM8440.
7) The bathroom door does not need to lock at all - what mortise lock should be used instead of an MA311?
For an opening that only needs a latch with no locking at all, a passage function mortise lock replaces a privacy lock. The Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3810S and 3810E are 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise locks with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches thick, the 3810S with a rose and the 3810E with an escutcheon. The Falcon MA311 differs in that it is a privacy bed and bath function, so the interior side locks.
8) Is the Schlage CO-100 privacy mortise lock the same thing as a Falcon MA311?
Both are Grade 1 heavy duty privacy function mortise locks, but they are not the same category of product. The Falcon MA311 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. The Schlage CO-100 in the MS-40-KP configuration is a standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader, privacy function, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Choosing the CO-100 means credential management and a powered device; the MA311 operates purely mechanically with an interior privacy function.
9) What privacy mortise lock works for a patient room or behavioral health opening where the MA311 is not suitable?
Standard lever privacy locks are not used on anti-ligature openings. For those, TownSteel offers the MRX-L-01, a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel, and the MRX-A-01, a ligature resistant arch trim mortise lockset in satin stainless, both passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors. Marks USA offers the 5PDN, a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push and pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. The Falcon MA311 uses conventional lever and knob trim in its privacy bed and bath function.
10) Which mortise locks are field reversible like the Falcon MA311?
The Falcon MA311 is field reversible, so one unit handles left or right swing without ordering a handed version. Among mortise lock bodies, the BEST 45H Series heavy duty lock body in public entrance function is also field reversible. By contrast, some peers are supplied handed - the Baldwin 6310190RRLS is specified as a right hand reverse lever by lever entry and storeroom mortise lock with a 2-1/2 inch backset, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW wireless mortise lock is listed right hand. Handing matters at the point of order for those; it does not for the MA311.
11) What Grade 1 mortise lock options exist for a 3-hour fire rated opening?
The Falcon MA311 is UL listed for a 3-hour fire door, A label, at Grade 1. Among the peers that publish a fire rating, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 3 hour fire rating and a 125kHz proximity reader, and the Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD is a mobile-enabled mortise lock with a push button and LED rated 3 hours at Grade 2. If the specification calls for Grade 1 on a fire rated opening, the MA311 and the LEMD-GRW both meet that; the LEBMB-ADD is the Grade 2 option.
12) Does the Falcon MA311 fit an aluminum storefront or glass door?
The MA311 is a heavy duty commercial mortise lock for the standard mortise pocket found in wood and hollow metal doors. Narrow stile aluminum and glass openings take different hardware: the Alarm Lock DL1300NW is a Trilogy Networx wireless electronic mortise lock with a keypad made for Adams Rite deadlatches, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 Series electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock is listed for wide stile, and the Kaba Ilco BR Series is a glass door bottom rail lock. Confirm the stile and door construction before specifying a full mortise lockset.
13) What is the difference between a privacy mortise lock and a passage mortise lock for a bathroom door?
A privacy lock like the Falcon MA311 has an interior locking function with no key access, which is what you want on a bedroom or bath door. A passage latch has no locking function at all, it just latches. If the door doesn't need to lock, a passage mortise lock such as the Schlage PM010 or the Hager 3810S is the right part. If you need the door locked and unlocked by key from the outside, neither one works and you want a keyed function like storeroom or office.
14) What lever styles and finishes does the Falcon MA311 come in?
Trim is the other half of the order. The MA311 takes eight lever styles: Avalon, Boardwalk, Broadway, Dane, Latitude, Longitude, Quantum and Sutro, in either Gala or Napa trim. Finishes run 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 630 satin stainless and 643E aged bronze. Matching an existing building standard usually comes down to picking the lever and finish that's already on the corridor doors.
15) Is the Falcon MA311 heavy duty enough for a dormitory or healthcare bathroom door?
The MA311 is ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000, Grade 1, which is the heavy duty commercial classification, and it's built with cold-formed steel, zinc plated with a dichromate coating, plus forged escutcheons. The latch is a 2-piece anti-friction stainless bolt. That's the right specification for high-traffic dorm, healthcare and hospitality bath doors rather than a residential privacy set.
16) Does the Falcon MA311 need power or wiring at the door?
No wiring. The MA311 is a fully mechanical mortise lock, not electronic, so there is no transfer hinge, power supply or fail-safe/fail-secure decision to make. If the opening does need electrified control, that's a different product family altogether, for example the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock at 12V/24V, or the Command Access ML190 motorized mortise lock at 24VDC.
17) Can a keyed mortise lock be used on a bedroom or bath door instead of a privacy lock?
A keyed lock changes how the door is controlled. The Falcon MA311 is non-keyed privacy - the occupant locks from inside and there is no key cylinder. If the room needs to be locked and unlocked by staff with a key, keyed mortise functions include the Accentra 8805FL, a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock from the 8800 Series, the Cal-Royal NM8080 Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8050 Grade 1 office and entrance mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch. Those are entry-control functions rather than occupant privacy.
18) Is a Schlage L0170 dummy trim a substitute for a Falcon MA311?
No. The Schlage L0170 is a half dummy trim, a Grade 1 non-keyed mortise lever with a dummy function - it is trim only, with no latch and no locking action, used on inactive leaves and closet doors. Emtek's mortise entrance locksets in dummy function, including the 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan, are the same idea in decorative brass. The Falcon MA311 is a working privacy mortise lock with a 2-piece anti-friction stainless steel latch bolt and an interior privacy function.
19) Can a cylindrical lock be used in place of the Falcon MA311 mortise lock?
Only if the door is prepped for it. The Falcon MA311 is a mortise lock, which requires a pocket routed into the door edge. A cylindrical lock such as the Schlage PC10, a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock, non-keyed with a rose for 1-3/4 inch doors, uses a bored cross-bore prep instead. A door already mortised will not accept a cylindrical lock without a filler or a new door, and the PC10 is passage function rather than privacy.
20) Which privacy mortise lock should be specified for a dorm or apartment door where the occupant also needs a deadbolt?
The Falcon MA311 is a privacy bed and bath function without a deadbolt. Where a deadbolt is wanted, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock in the 7900 Series with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The Baldwin 6301 in knob by knob or the 6301LS in lever by lever is an entry and apartment function mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inches and over.
21) What is the difference between ordering a Falcon MA311 and ordering a bare mortise lock body?
The Falcon MA311 is ordered as a complete privacy lock with the trim selected - Gala or Napa trim style, one of eight lever styles including Avalon, Dane and Sutro, and one of nine finishes from 605 bright brass through 630 satin stainless. A lock body alone is a different purchase: the BEST 45H heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function and the BEST 45HCA heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function are supplied as bodies, and Baldwin lists the 6310 as a knob by knob entry and storeroom mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inches and over. Choosing a body means sourcing trim separately.
22) Is a mortise deadbolt an alternative to a privacy mortise lock?
A deadbolt secures but does not latch, so it does not replace a lockset on its own. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a mortise deadbolt with no handing, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and a privacy keypad for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches thick. The Falcon MA311 is a latching privacy lockset with lever or knob trim, so a door fitted only with a deadbolt still needs a latch to hold it closed.
23) What replaces a Falcon MA311 when the room needs access control or audit trail?
The MA311 is a mechanical, non-electronic privacy lock with no credential handling. Electronic mortise options include the Accentra NTM623-NR, a Grade 1 nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock with a capacitive touchscreen keypad, no deadbolt, with cylinder override; the BEST 45HZ EZ Series electronic keypad mortise lock with key override; the BEST 45HW Series wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V; and the Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2. These require power or batteries and a credential program; the MA311 does not.
24) Can I standardize a whole building on the Falcon MA Series and use the MA311 only on the bed and bath doors?
That's the normal way it's specified. The MA311 is the privacy/bed/bath function within the Falcon MA Series mortise line, so you can keep one series, one lever style and one finish across the building and change only the function per opening. Because the lock is field reversible, a single MA311 part number covers every swing direction in the building, which keeps the spares shelf small for a property manager or MRO buyer.
25) What is a medium duty alternative to a Grade 1 commercial privacy mortise lock?
The Falcon MA311 is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise lock built for high-traffic commercial openings. Where the traffic is lighter, the Codelocks CL2255 is a medium duty electronic tubular mortise latch from the CL2000 Series in a brushed steel finish. The duty level and the tubular mortise latch prep are the practical differences to check against the door before substituting.
