Falcon T12 D 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a dummy lever like the Falcon T12 actually used for?
A dummy trim has no latch and no moving mechanism. The Falcon T12 is a pull handle that matches the working locks on the rest of the opening, so it goes on the inactive leaf of a pair, on a closet or cabinet door held by a ball catch or magnetic catch, or on a door that already latches by other means. If you need the lever to retract a latch, this is the wrong function: use a passage set instead. Falcon builds the T12 as a Grade 1 cylindrical, non-keyed, so it matches the look and feel of the keyed T Series openings around it.
2) Will the Falcon T12 dummy lever fit a 2 inch thick door?
Yes. The T12 covers door thicknesses from 1-3/4 inches through 2-1/8 inches, so 2 inch doors are inside the range, as are the standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors. Below 1-3/4 inches it is out of range, so a 1-3/8 inch older interior door needs something else. Prep is the standard cylindrical pattern: 2-1/8 inch bore with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
3) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a Falcon T12 dummy lever?
No handing to specify. The T12 is non-handed and does not need field disassembly to re-hand, so one part covers left and right hand doors. That is a real difference from decorative dummies like the Baldwin Estate 5103, which is ordered as a left hand or a right hand half dummy. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, the non-handed T12 means one shelf item instead of two.
4) Is the Falcon T12 dummy lever ADA compliant and can it go on a fire rated door?
Falcon states the T12 lever designs exceed ADA and state disability requirements, and the product is UL 3-hour fire rated and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1. That combination is what an institutional or MRO buyer needs on a hospital, school, or government opening where the trim on the inactive leaf still has to satisfy the same inspection as the active one.
5) The door actually needs a working latch, not a fixed lever. What should be ordered instead?
A dummy lever has no latch, so it will not hold a door closed. For a latching non-keyed lever at the same Grade 1 level, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet cylindrical lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. At Grade 2, the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the Arrow GL01 passage lever covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
6) Can a half dummy be used on both leaves of a pair of doors, or is a pair required?
It depends on the product. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is sold handed, as a left hand or a right hand unit, so a pair of doors takes one of each. The Emtek Arts and Crafts and Cortina dummy leversets are sold as a pair. The Falcon T12 dummy is non-handed, so the same part serves either leaf without field disassembly to re-hand.
7) Does the Falcon T12 dummy cover the holes from a lock I am removing?
The T12 uses a 3-1/2 inch diameter rose. It is prepped for the standard cylindrical pattern, a 2-1/8 inch bore with a 1 inch edge bore per ANSI A115, so on a door already bored for a cylindrical lockset the rose covers the face bore with room to spare. Where the old hardware left a larger escutcheon footprint or a mortise pocket, measure the existing cutout against the 3-1/2 inch rose before you commit. Note the dummy has no latch, so an existing edge bore and strike will be left empty.
8) What lever styles and finishes does the Falcon T12 come in, and can I match it to the other doors?
Seven lever styles: Avalon, Boardwalk, Broadway, Dane, Latitude, Longitude and Quantum. Eight finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 643E aged bronze. Those are the same T Series lever families used on the keyed functions, so specify the same lever style and BHMA finish number as the working locks on the opening and the dummy leaf reads identically.
9) Is a Grade 1 dummy lever overkill, or does it matter on a high-traffic door?
It matters where people hang on the handle. The T12 is heavy duty with a compression spring behind the rose that keeps the lever from sagging, and the Pressure Release lever rotation lets the lever turn under excessive force instead of breaking internal parts. The inside lever is held by an Allen-head set screw, so it cannot be pulled off by hand. On a low-abuse closet or a residential corridor a Grade 2 or Grade 3 dummy such as the Callan Bentley will do the job; on a school, dorm, or hospital leaf the Grade 1 build is what keeps you off the callback list.
10) What is the equivalent Grade 1 dummy lever if I am not standardized on Falcon?
Two direct peers in the same class: the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim, a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed cylindrical dummy lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta from the 5400 Series, also a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy lever. If the opening is lighter duty, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the medium duty Grade 2 dummy in the same single dummy trim format. Pick on which brand's lever family already runs through the building, since the point of a dummy is that it matches.
11) Does the Falcon T12 dummy take a cylinder or an interchangeable core?
No cylinder goes in it. The T12 dummy is non-keyed with no keying at all. Cylinder compatibility across the T Series covers most manufacturers' conventional key systems, small format interchangeable cores and Schlage full size interchangeable cores, but that applies to the keyed functions, not to a dummy trim. If you are keying an opening into an existing system, order the keyed T Series function for the active leaf and use the T12 on the leaf that only needs a pull.
12) Is there a lighter duty dummy lever if the door does not need Grade 1?
Yes. The BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim cylindrical lever lock is a Grade 2, medium duty non-keyed dummy trim. The Callan Bentley is another Grade 2 dummy lever. Both cover the same fixed-lever role as the Falcon T12 Grade 1 heavy duty dummy, at a lower ANSI grade and duty level - a common choice on interior closet doors and low-traffic residential corridors rather than institutional openings.
13) Which locks look like a substitute for a T12 dummy lever but are not?
Anything with a latch or a cylinder is a different device. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta and 4601LN are Grade 2 passage levers, the Hager 2580 with Withnell lever is a Grade 2 storeroom lock, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt. Those all throw a bolt and require a strike prepped in the frame. The Falcon T12 is non-keyed dummy trim, so it mounts as a fixed pull with no latch and no strike.
14) What is the alternative for a bathroom or bedroom door where a lever needs to lock from inside?
A dummy lever offers no locking at all. For privacy function, the Hager 2540 with Withnell lever and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever both cover 1-3/8 inch doors upward, the Kwikset at Grade 3, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a fire rated privacy set with a Tudor knob for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Baldwin Estate 5103 is also built in a privacy version with the 5048 rose, matching the 5103 dummy trim on adjacent doors.
15) If a classroom or entry lock is needed on the active leaf while the inactive leaf takes dummy trim, what pairs with it?
Keep the trim family consistent across the pair. The Dexter C1000 Series covers Grade 1 classroom and Grade 1 entry/office cylindrical lever locks for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, plus a Grade 1 classroom security version, and a Grade 1 asylum version that reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon T12 dummy handles doors from 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/8 inch and is non-handed, so it drops onto either leaf.
16) Does a dummy lever from a keyed lock series need cylinder or keying parts ordered with it?
No. The Falcon T12 is non-keyed dummy trim, so no cylinder, core or keyway selection applies to it. Compare that with keyed cylindrical levers such as the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever and AG03 classroom lever, both 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different, or the Arrow MK33-BD-CS asylum lock with a conventional cylinder in Schlage C. Those require a keying decision at order time; a T12 does not.
17) How is the Falcon T12 dummy lever fastened to the door, and does it come with the screws?
Trim is through-bolted with two 10-32 screws coated with thread sealant, and they are part of the trim assembly, so no separate fastener kit to order. The through-bolt is why this holds up as a pull handle: the load goes through the door rather than into wood screws in the face. Install with the manufacturer template, torque to spec, and check the lever swings through its full motion before you call it done.
18) What matches the T12 dummy for a decorative residential interior rather than a commercial corridor?
The Emtek Classic Brass Cortina dummy leverset and the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Hammered dummy leversets are decorative dummy pairs, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy pairs with a 5048 rose. The Falcon T12 is a commercial Grade 1 dummy with a 3-1/2 inch rose, offered in eight finishes from bright brass through matte black and seven lever styles including Avalon, Dane and Quantum.
19) What should be used on the same opening if keyless code entry is wanted instead of a fixed lever?
Mechanical and electronic keypad levers cover that. The Lockey 2835 pushbutton keyless lever is ADA compliant with passage function for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the 2835DC adds a double combination on the same door range. The Lockey 1150 heavy duty keypad lever set fits 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors and offers an adjustable backset version. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. The Falcon T12 is a mechanical, non-electronic dummy.
