Falcon W301S D 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Falcon W301 privacy lock go on a fire rated bathroom door?
Yes. The W301 is UL Listed for 3-hour fire door assemblies with an A label, which covers the fire rated bath and bedroom doors common in hotels, apartments and healthcare corridors. It carries ANSI/BHMA F76 at Grade 2.
2) Do I have to order a left hand or right hand Falcon W301?
No handing to specify. The W301 is non-handed and installs on either swing with no field re-handing or disassembly, and the self-adjusting latch front seats to a beveled or a flat door edge on its own. One part number covers every opening in the building.
3) The door does not need to lock at all - what do I order instead of a privacy lever?
For an opening that only needs latching with no locking, use a passage function lever such as the Accentra 5301LN Augusta, a Grade 2 passage/hall/closet cylindrical lever, or the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever with Withnell design for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon W301 is a privacy/bed/bath function with a push-button, which is the wrong function for a closet or hall door that must never latch shut.
4) What is the closest Grade 2 privacy lever equivalent to the Falcon W301 from another brand?
The Hager 2540 is the nearest cross-brand match to the Falcon W301: both are Grade 2 cylindrical privacy locks with a lever handle. The W301 is non-handed and carries ANSI/BHMA F76, while the Hager 2540 is listed for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Both fit the same bath and bedroom openings in commercial and multi-family work.
5) What is the Grade 1 alternative if a privacy lever needs to hold up to heavier traffic?
For a heavier-duty privacy application, the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy lock with a fire rating, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick. It uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever, so it does not offer the lever operation of the Falcon W301, which is a Grade 2 medium-duty lever lock. Where an ADA lever is required, the knob version will not substitute.
6) Is a dummy lever the same as a privacy lever?
No. A dummy trim such as the BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim, a Grade 2 non-keyed medium-duty lever, is a fixed pull with no latch and no locking mechanism. The Falcon W301 is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock with a 1/2 inch throw latch and a push-button on the inside. Order dummy trim only for an inactive leaf or a door held by a ball catch.
7) Is a Grade 2 lever like the Falcon W301 enough for an apartment building, or should I go Grade 1?
Grade 2 medium duty is the normal spec for bed and bath doors in multi-family, offices and hotels, where the door is not taking public traffic all day. Behind-the-door privacy doors rarely need more. If the opening is a high abuse or vandal exposed one, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever, though it is passage function rather than privacy.
8) Can I key the Falcon W301 into my building master key system?
No, and it is not meant to be. The W301 is a non-keyed privacy set with a push button inside and an emergency release outside, so there is no cylinder to key. For the doors on the same floor that do need to be in the keyway, spec a keyed function from the same family instead and keep the W301 on the bed and bath doors.
9) Do the Falcon W301 levers meet ADA for a hospital or school?
The levers are ADA-compliant, which is what gets you past the no-tight-grasping-or-twisting requirement that rules knobs out on accessible routes. If you are replacing knob sets in a facility being brought up to code, this is the swap: a knob privacy set like the Arrow MK02-TA Tudor knob will not satisfy it.
10) Will the Falcon W301 mount on a hollow metal door as well as a wood door?
Both. The rose assembly secures with through-bolted combination screws that work in wood or metal doors, and the rose inserts are steel with wrought brass or bronze roses over them. Heavy-duty torsion springs carry the lever so it does not droop on the metal doors that see the most use.
11) What is a good alternative to the Falcon W301 if I want a privacy lever in a residential grade?
For light residential duty the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever that fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the decorative option. Neither is a commercial spec. The W301 is the one to hold onto for a Grade 2 commercial opening, particularly a fire rated one.
12) Can maintenance get into a Falcon W301 bathroom if a tenant locks themselves in?
Yes. The latch bolt is operated by the levers, the inside push button locks it, and there is an emergency release on the outside so a manager or maintenance tech can open the door without a key. That is the reason this function is spec'd on apartment and hotel bath doors rather than a passage set.
13) Which privacy lock should I use for a bath door on a residential-grade budget instead of a commercial lever?
The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 privacy lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Falcon W301 is a Grade 2 commercial privacy lock rated medium duty. Grade 3 suits interior residential bath and bedroom doors; Grade 2 is the specification level used for commercial and multi-family corridors and unit interiors.
14) Which lock do I use if the bathroom door needs a key from the outside instead of a privacy button?
A privacy lock like the Falcon W301 is non-keyed. Where the outside must be keyed, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with the Withnell design for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Both keep the outside lever locked at all times and require a key to enter.
15) What is the difference between a privacy lever and an asylum or institution function lock for a patient toilet?
An asylum/institution function such as the Dexter C1000 Grade 1, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, or the Arrow MK33-BD-CS Grade 2 heavy-duty asylum lock, is keyed on both sides with no free egress by turn or button. The Falcon W301 is a privacy/bed/bath function with an inside push-button and emergency release, which allows the occupant to secure the door themselves. Healthcare facilities specify one or the other depending on whether staff must retain control of the opening.
16) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever that works on the same doors as a Falcon W301?
The Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is a passage-function lock with ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 heavy-duty mechanical keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. Both use a mechanical code to release the lever rather than the inside privacy button of the Falcon W301, which is a non-electronic privacy/bed/bath lock. A code lock controls who enters; a privacy lock only lets the occupant secure the room.
17) For a decorative residential privacy lever instead of a commercial one, what is the option?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose is a privacy function lever in a decorative Estate design, and matching passage and half dummy versions of the 5103 exist for the rest of the doors in the same room set. The Falcon W301 is a commercial Grade 2 privacy lock offered in seven lever styles and two rose sizes. Choose the Baldwin where finish and trim design drive the specification, the W301 where an ANSI/BHMA F76 commercial rating is called for.
18) What lever holds up better on a high-abuse corridor than a Grade 2 privacy lock?
For openings that take abuse, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock with a fire rating for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are passage/closet function, so neither secures the room the way the Falcon W301 does with its privacy/bed/bath function. Use them where the traffic is heavy and no locking is required.
19) Can I match a privacy lever with passage levers on the other doors of the same unit?
Yes. A room set is normally built from one design in several functions. The Falcon W301 covers the privacy/bed/bath doors in seven lever styles across eight finishes. For the passage doors, Grade 2 options include the Accentra 4601LN with Augusta trim, the Arrow GL01 with Sierra lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Design Hardware J75 flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm the lever profile and finish code match across the functions you order.
20) Is the Falcon W301 an electronic or keypad lock?
No, it is a purely mechanical cylindrical lever set with a push button. If the door needs code entry instead, the Lockey 2835 mechanical keypad lever covers 1 3/16 to 2 inch doors, the Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock, and the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a 12VAC/DC electrified lever for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
21) Does an entrance or office lever work as a substitute for a privacy lever on a bathroom door?
No. Entrance function locks such as the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, or the Cal-Royal AUS00 Grade 3 entrance/office lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, are keyed from the outside and are intended for offices and entry doors. The Falcon W301 is non-keyed with a privacy/bed/bath function, which is what code and occupant expectation call for on a bath or bedroom door.
