Falcon MA641L AG 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the dormitory function on the Falcon MA641 mortise lock actually do?
The MA641 is a dormitory (corridor) function lock with a deadbolt, keyed single cylinder. That means the occupant secures the room with the deadbolt from inside or with a key from outside, and the key retracts both bolts from the corridor side. It is the function you want on student rooms, patient rooms and hotel-style openings where the person inside needs to positively lock the door but staff still need key access.
2) Can the Falcon MA641 go on a fire-rated door?
Yes. The MA641 is UL listed for 3-hour A label fire doors, so it meets the listing requirement on a stairwell, corridor or cross-corridor opening carrying an A label or lower. It is also ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000 Grade 1, which is the heavy-duty mortise classification specifiers usually call for in institutional work.
3) Do I have to order the Falcon MA641 handed, or can I re-hand it on site?
No handing to specify. The MA641 is field reversible, including the 2-piece stainless anti-friction latch bolt, so one lock covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares that means a single part number sits on the shelf for every door in the building.
4) Can I get the Falcon MA641 to work on my existing SFIC key system?
Yes, and how you order it depends on whose cores you are using. Four cylinder choices are offered: B for less small format interchangeable core (you supply your own SFIC), L for less 6-pin conventional cylinder, P for a conventional 6-pin cylinder supplied, and CP6 for a conventional 6-pin in the Schlage C keyway. If you already run an SFIC master system, take the B option and drop your own cores in. If you are on a Schlage C keyway, CP6 puts the lock straight onto that system.
5) What do I have to specify when ordering a Falcon MA641 mortise lock?
Four things beyond the model. Cylinder (B less SFIC, L less conventional, P conventional 6-pin, or CP6 in the Schlage C keyway), lever style from eight choices (Avalon, Boardwalk, Broadway, Dane, Latitude, Longitude, Quantum, Sutro), trim style Gala or Napa, and finish from nine options. Keying is chosen separately as keyed different, keyed alike, or to a key code, and there is a less-cylinder route if you are supplying cores. No hand needs to be called out.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Falcon MA641 dormitory mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Sargent 7925 is the nearest peer. It is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock with a corridor/dormitory function and a single cylinder deadbolt, in the Sargent 7900 Series. That matches the Falcon MA641, which is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock with a dormitory lock function, single cylinder keying, and a deadbolt. If a school or multi-family owner already standardizes on Sargent, the 7925 covers the same opening; the 7925 comes with rose trim, while the Falcon MA641 uses Gala or Napa escutcheon trim styles.
7) Which mortise lock do I use for a storeroom or supply closet rather than a dormitory room?
A storeroom function is the right call there, and the Falcon MA641 is built as a dormitory function lock. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series with an Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option for 1-3/4 inch doors. The NM8080 interchangeable core option lines up with the way the MA641 accepts Small Format Interchangeable Core cylinders, so a facility keyed on SFIC can carry that across both.
8) For a behavioral health or patient room, is the Falcon MA641 the right mortise lock?
The MA641 is a lever-operated dormitory function lock with standard Gala or Napa trim, which is not anti-ligature hardware. Where a ligature resistant opening is required, the TownSteel MRX-A-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage mortise lockset with ligature resistant arch trim in satin stainless for 1-3/4 inch doors, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless anti-ligature lever mortise lockset for the same door thickness, and the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. Those are passage functions, so key control has to be handled elsewhere on the opening.
9) Which mortise locks besides the Falcon MA641 carry a 3-hour fire rating for an A label door?
The Falcon MA641 is UL listed for a 3-hour A label fire door. Among comparable mortise locks, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW carries a 3 hour fire rating at Grade 1 in the ENGAGE Series, and the Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD carries a 3 hour fire rating at Grade 2 in the LE Series for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both of those are electronic locks, so on a mechanically keyed fire-rated opening the MA641 remains the direct answer.
10) Should I use a dormitory mortise lock or a classroom function on student and patient room doors?
Different jobs. The MA641 dormitory function gives the occupant a deadbolt they control, which is what a sleeping room needs. Classroom function has no occupant-controlled deadbolt, it locks and unlocks the outside lever by key only, which is what you want on a teaching space. If the opening is a classroom rather than a sleeping room, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 or the Cal-Royal NM8070, both Grade 1 classroom mortise locks for 1-3/4 inch doors, are the right shape of product.
11) Can I key a run of Falcon MA641 locks alike across a building?
Yes. Keying is selected on the order: keyed different, keyed alike, or keyed to a specific key code you supply. For a facility standardizing an existing system, order to key code and the locks arrive on your bitting. If you run interchangeable cores in-house, take the B less-SFIC cylinder option instead and core them yourself, which is the usual approach where tenants turn over often.
12) Do I need a separate deadbolt on a dormitory door if I install the Falcon MA641?
No. The deadbolt is built into the MA641 mortise case, so one pocket in the door handles both latch and deadbolt. Fitting a separate mortise deadbolt like the Sargent 4874 above the lock is only needed when the lockset itself has no bolt, which is not the case here.
13) What is a simpler non-keyed mortise lock if the opening does not need key control?
The Falcon MA641 is a keyed, single cylinder lock, which is more than a passage or privacy opening needs. For passage, the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3810S in the 3800 Series is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose and a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors. For a bed or bath door, the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors.
14) Is there an electronic or keypad version of a dormitory-style mortise lock instead of a keyed one?
The Falcon MA641 is a mechanical, non-electronic mortise lock. If access should be managed by code or credential instead of a key, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic Trilogy mortise lock with 300 user codes and classroom function for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a mobile enabled deadbolt with LED, carrying a 3 hour fire rating. The TownSteel FME-2000 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. All of these change the credential and the function set; the MA641 keeps key control in a physical cylinder.
15) Can I use a Sargent 4874 mortise deadbolt in place of the Falcon MA641?
No, those do different jobs. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset in the 4870 Series, so it is deadbolt only and has no latch or lever. The Falcon MA641 is a dormitory function mortise lock that combines lever operation with a deadbolt and is keyed single cylinder. A 4874 pairs with separate latching hardware; it will not substitute for a complete lockset on a dorm or guest room door. The Kaba Ilco 185 Series is likewise a deadbolt function mortise product, not a lockset.
16) Does an Emtek 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance lockset work as a substitute for a Falcon MA641?
No. The Emtek 3106 Manhattan, along with the 3104 Hamilton, 3102 Memphis, and 3019 Brisbane, are dummy function mortise entrance locksets, meaning they are non-operating trim with no latching or keying. The Falcon MA641 is a Grade 1 keyed dormitory function mortise lock with a deadbolt and a UL listed 3-hour A label fire door rating. A dummy set has a place on an inactive leaf, not on a secured dorm or guest room door. The Schlage L0170 is likewise a Grade 1 half dummy trim in the L Series.
17) I need a mortise lock body only, without trim. Is there an option other than the Falcon MA641?
The Falcon MA641 ships as a complete lockset with a lever style and Gala or Napa trim selected. When only the chassis is being replaced behind existing trim, the BEST 45H Series is a heavy duty mortise lock body with public entrance function and field reversible operation, and the BEST 45HCA Series is a heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function in the 40H Series. The Baldwin 6301 lever by lever is an entrance/apartment mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. Note the BEST 45H is field reversible, the same re-handing convenience the MA641 offers.
18) What if the opening needs to be locked and unlocked remotely from an access control panel?
The Falcon MA641 is a mechanical lock with no electrified option. For panel-controlled openings, the Schlage L9092EU with 03A trim is a heavy duty corridor function mortise lock, keyed outside, with electric lock/unlock of the outside lever, request to exit, and 12/24VDC operation for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Command Access ML190 Series is a heavy duty motorized mortise lock with field selectable fail safe or fail secure operation on 24VDC in a storeroom function. The BEST 45HW Series is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V. The Schlage L9092EU shares the corridor product function the MA641 carries.
19) For a hotel or apartment entry door, is there an alternative to the Falcon MA641 dormitory lock?
An entrance or apartment function is the common alternative there. The Baldwin 6301 knob by knob is an entry/apartment mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over, and the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a heavy duty Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon MA641 differs in that it is a dormitory function with a deadbolt and single cylinder keying, which is what a guest or resident room uses when the deadbolt is meant to be thrown from inside and released by key from the corridor.
20) My door is prepped for a cylindrical lock, not a mortise pocket. What do I order?
The Falcon MA641 is a mortise lock and needs a mortise pocket routed into the door edge. If the existing prep is a bored cylindrical hole, the Schlage PC10 is a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock with rose, non-keyed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm the door prep before ordering either type, since converting a bored door to mortise means new door preparation.
21) Can a Codelocks CL2255 replace a Falcon MA641 on a dorm room door?
They are built to different duty levels. The Codelocks CL2255 is a medium duty electronic tubular mortise latch in the CL2000 Series with a brushed steel finish. The Falcon MA641 is a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial mortise lock with a deadbolt, rated ANSI/BHMA 156.13 Series 1000 and UL listed for a 3-hour A label fire door. On a high-traffic or fire-rated dorm opening the CL2255 is not the equivalent; it suits lighter-use doors where a code-entry latch is enough.
22) What mortise lock should I use for a card or mobile credential dorm rollout instead of keys?
Where a campus is moving off brass keys, the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 back to back entry/egress electronic pushbutton and card mortise lock in the E-Plex 5X86 Series, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-I-M002 is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2 in the Saffire Series. The Dormakaba PowerPlex P2066 Series is a mortise lock in the PowerPlex 2000 line. The Falcon MA641 stays mechanical and single cylinder keyed, accepting either conventional 6-pin or Small Format Interchangeable Core cylinders, so it is the option when rekeying rather than credentialing is the plan.
23) What finishes can I get the Falcon MA641 in to match the rest of my building?
Nine finishes: 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. 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless are the two that most commonly match existing commercial door hardware; 613 and 643E are the darker options for residential-look corridors.
24) Will the Falcon MA641 hold up in a high-abuse building like a dorm or a hospital corridor?
It is built for it. Heavy duty Grade 1, with forged escutcheons rather than stamped, and cold-formed steel components finished in zinc plating with a dichromate coating for corrosion resistance. The anti-friction latch is 2-piece stainless. That combination is aimed at high-traffic commercial openings, which is why it is specified in schools, healthcare and multi-tenant residential.
