Falcon W581CP6D Q 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon W581CP6D fit a 1-3/8 inch wood door, or is it only for 1-3/4 inch commercial doors?
The W581CP6D covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors, so it works on older 1-3/8 inch interior wood doors and on standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors without any extra kit. Prep is the usual cylindrical pattern: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch latch bore, 2-3/4 inch backset.
2) My door is bored for a 2-3/8 inch backset. Can I use this Falcon storeroom lever?
No. The W581CP6D is built for a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial spacing. On a 2-3/8 inch bored door the latch will not reach the chassis. For a 2-3/8 inch backset in a lever at Grade 2, look at the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever, which is listed with a 2-3/8 inch backset, though that is entrance function rather than storeroom.
3) What does storeroom function actually do on this Falcon lever, and is it the right choice for a mechanical room?
Storeroom means the outside lever is always locked and only a key retracts the latch. The inside lever always retracts for free egress. There is no button or thumbturn to leave it unlocked by accident, which is why it is the usual pick for mechanical rooms, electrical closets, janitor rooms and stock rooms. If you need staff to be able to leave the door unlocked during the day, storeroom is the wrong function and an entrance/office lock is what you want.
4) Can I put this Falcon lock on a fire rated door?
Yes. The W581CP6D carries a UL 3-hour A Label listing for fire rated door assemblies, and the latchbolt is a deadlocking latch with a 1/2 inch projection, which is what a positive-latching fire door needs.
5) Will this Falcon lever work in my existing strike, or do I have to cut the frame?
It ships with a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch ANSI square corner strike (no box) and a 1/2 inch throw latch. If your frame already has the standard ANSI 4-7/8 inch strike prep, it drops straight in. Frames cut for a smaller T-strike or a round corner strike will need the opening modified or a matching strike ordered.
6) Can I key this Falcon storeroom lock into my existing small format interchangeable core system?
It takes a removable interchangeable core in the lever, and Falcon states compatibility with SFIC products from Assa, Kaba, Lori, Medeco, Primus and Schlage. If your building is already on one of those SFIC systems, you can pull the core and drop yours in rather than rekeying the lock.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Falcon W581CP6D storeroom lever lock from another brand?
The Hager 2580 with Withnell lever is the closest match. Like the Falcon W581CP6D, it is a Grade 2 storeroom-function cylindrical lock, and it covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, the same range the W581CP6D accommodates. Both give you a key-outside, always-locked lever with free egress from inside. The difference is trim family and cylinder approach: the W581CP6D is supplied with a key-in-lever interchangeable core so the core can be pulled and re-keyed without removing the lock.
8) Is there a storeroom lever lock with a 2-3/8 inch backset instead of 2-3/4 inch?
The Falcon W581CP6D is built around a 2-3/4 inch backset. If your door is prepped for a shallower backset, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt that fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and Cal-Royal's AG line is offered with both 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets - the AG00 entrance lever in that series is listed at a 2-3/8 inch backset. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before ordering either.
9) Can I use a Cal-Royal AG05 or Hager 2580 storeroom lever on a 2 inch thick door instead of the Falcon W581CP6D?
On a 2 inch door, the Hager 2580 works - it is rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, matching the Falcon W581CP6D's range. The Cal-Royal AG05 storeroom lever tops out at 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so it is not the one for a full 2 inch leaf unless you source a thick-door kit for it. Both are Grade 2 storeroom function like the W581CP6D.
10) Our building is keyed to Schlage C - can I use the Falcon W581CP6D or do I need a different lock?
The Falcon W581CP6D takes a removable interchangeable core, and that core system accepts small format interchangeable cores from other makers including Schlage, Medeco, Primus, Kaba, Lori and Assa, so it can be brought onto an existing SFIC master key system. If your building is keyed on conventional Schlage C cylinders rather than cores, the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever is offered in that line alongside 6-pin Schlage C keyway models such as the AG00 and AG03.
11) Do I need to order this handed for a left or right swing door?
No handing to specify. The W581CP6D is non-handed, and the latch front is self-adjusting so it sits correctly on either a beveled or a flat door edge. One part number covers every swing, which makes it easier to stock a few spares across a building.
12) Is a Grade 2 lever strong enough for a school or hospital storeroom door?
Grade 2 to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 is medium duty, which suits storerooms, closets and back-of-house doors that see moderate daily traffic. On a high-cycle opening like a main corridor or a public restroom, step up to Grade 1: the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series is Grade 1 and vandal resistant, and the BEST 9K Series is Grade 1 heavy duty.
13) What other Grade 2 storeroom levers could I use instead of the Falcon W581CP6D?
Two direct alternatives: the Hager 2580 with the Withnell lever is Grade 2 storeroom and covers the same 1-3/8 to 2 inch door range, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is Grade 2 storeroom with a deadlocking latchbolt but is listed only for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon differs on keying: it is built around a removable interchangeable core, so pick it if your facility runs SFIC.
14) What is the latch face size on this Falcon lever so I can match my existing door mortise?
The standard latch has a 1-1/8 by 2-1/4 inch square corner faceplate with a 1 inch housing diameter, 1/2 inch throw and 2-3/4 inch backset. That is the common commercial square corner face, so it swaps into most existing cylindrical latch mortises. If the door edge is routed for a round corner face, you will need to square the mortise or order a round corner latch.
15) We need a heavier-duty version of this lock for a high traffic corridor - what steps up from the Falcon W581CP6D?
The W581CP6D is a Grade 2, medium-duty cylindrical lock. For a higher cycle opening, the Corbin Russwin CL3100 series is Grade 1 and fire rated, and the Dexter C1000 series is Grade 1 with a clutching lever that spins free under a side load rather than transmitting it to the chassis. Note that the Grade 1 options in those families listed here are passage, classroom, classroom security and asylum functions rather than storeroom, so confirm the function code matches the keying plan before you order.
16) The tenant does not want the door to lock - what should I order instead of the Falcon W581CP6D?
Storeroom function on the W581CP6D keeps the outside lever locked at all times and requires a key to enter. For an opening that should stay free in both directions, use a passage lever instead: the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and Arrow GL01 are Grade 2 passage/closet levers as well. None of those take a key or a cylinder.
17) What should I use instead of the Falcon W581CP6D if I want keyless code entry on a storage room?
The W581CP6D is a mechanical keyed lock with no electronic components. If you want code entry so you are not issuing keys, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 2835 and 1150 are mechanical pushbutton keypad lever sets with no batteries or wiring, covering doors from about 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch and 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch respectively. Those keypad units are passage-function lever sets, so the code controls entry rather than a cylinder and key system.
18) Is the Accentra 4601LN or Bravura Atlanta a substitute for the Falcon W581CP6D storeroom lock?
No. The Accentra 4601LN and the Bravura Atlanta are both Grade 2 cylindrical levers, but both are passage/hall/closet function - they have no cylinder and cannot be keyed. The Falcon W581CP6D is a keyed single-cylinder storeroom lock. Matching the grade and the lever look does not make a passage set into a secured opening; for a locked storeroom you need a storeroom-function chassis such as the W581CP6D or the Hager 2580.
19) For a classroom door, is the Falcon W581CP6D the right function or should I pick something else?
Storeroom function on the W581CP6D means the outside lever is always locked and the key retracts the latch without unlocking the outside trim - good for storage and mechanical rooms, but it does not let a teacher leave the door unlocked between periods. For a classroom, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the same backset the W581CP6D uses, and the Dexter C1000 classroom and classroom security levers are Grade 1 options for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick.
20) Is a residential Grade 3 lever like the Kwikset Breton an acceptable swap for the Falcon W581CP6D in an apartment building?
They are not in the same class. The Falcon W581CP6D is a commercial Grade 2 cylindrical lock carrying a UL 3-hour A Label listing for fire-rated door assemblies. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton and Master Lock BC Series RL01 are Grade 3 sets, and the Kwikset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. On a corridor or stair door in a multi-family building, where a fire rating and commercial cycle life are usually required, the W581CP6D or the Grade 2 Hager 2580 storeroom lever is the appropriate choice; Grade 3 levers suit interior unit doors.
21) What is the difference between the Falcon W581CP6D and a knob-style storeroom-type lock like the Arrow MK33?
The Falcon W581CP6D uses a lever, which is what ADA-governed openings generally call for since it operates without tight grasping or twisting. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy-duty cylindrical lock in asylum/institution/utility function with a ball knob and a conventional Schlage C keyway cylinder - that function keys both sides, unlike the W581CP6D's storeroom function, which leaves the inside lever always free for egress.
22) What finish and lever style does the Falcon W581CP6D come in?
It is supplied in 626 satin chrome with the Q Quantum lever. Satin chrome is the standard commercial finish, so it lines up with most existing closers, hinges and exit hardware in an office or institutional building without a finish mismatch.
23) Is this Falcon lock electronic or does it need any wiring?
Purely mechanical, no power and no wiring. If you need an electrified cylindrical lever for access control, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe lever running 12VAC/DC, and the Delaney LP250 is a standalone electronic keypad leverset.
24) Will this Falcon lock hold up in a damp or exterior-adjacent opening?
The roses are heavy wrought brass at 3-1/2 inch diameter with pressure cast zinc levers, and the brass and cold formed steel mechanism parts are zinc plated and dichromated with stainless steel springs for rust resistance. That handles interior damp areas like mechanical and janitor rooms. It is a medium duty commercial lock, not a marine or fully weather-exposed one.
25) I need a matching non-locking lever for the closet next to a room with the Falcon W581CP6D - what pairs with it?
For an inactive or decorative leaf, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium-duty lever that matches the duty class of the Falcon W581CP6D, and the BEST 9K 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy-duty equivalent. For a free-swinging closet door that still latches, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the same thickness range the W581CP6D handles.
