Falcon X301S EG 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Falcon X301 on a fire rated bathroom or bedroom door?
Yes. The X301 is UL Listed with a 3 hour A label rating, so it can go on a fire rated opening up to that classification. Being a privacy function, it has no key cylinder outside, which is what a bathroom or patient room door needs on a rated corridor wall.
2) Does the Falcon X301 privacy lock need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The X301 is non-handed, so one part number works on a left or right hand door and you can stock a single lock for a whole building. That matters when you are buying a pallet of privacy locks for a dorm or hotel and do not want to count door swings first.
3) Will a Falcon X301 replace an existing 2-3/8 inch backset knob lock?
Not without redrilling. The X301 is a 2-3/4 inch backset lock, which is the standard commercial bored prep. Doors prepped at 2-3/8 inches, common on residential and light duty locksets such as the Baldwin Estate 5000 privacy knob, put the cross-bore too close to the edge for this chassis. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing 2-1/8 inch bore before ordering.
4) Will a passage knob work in place of the Falcon X301 privacy lock?
No. Passage knobs latch the door but have no locking mechanism at all. The Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 non-keyed knob, the Schlage D10S Grade 1 heavy duty knob, the Arrow MK01 and RK01 Grade 2 non-keyed knobs, and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 ball knob are all passage/hall/closet function. The Falcon X301 is privacy/bed/bath, which is what a restroom, bedroom, exam room or locker room door needs - an occupant-side lock. Passage knobs suit corridors, closets and unsecured rooms; swapping one in leaves the door unable to be secured from inside.
5) What should I use instead of the Falcon X301 on a door that has to be keyed?
The Falcon X301 is non-keyed - its function is privacy/bed/bath, so it locks from the inside only and takes no key from the corridor side. For a keyed opening at the same Grade 1 heavy duty level, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the X301 backset, and the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder entrance function knob lock. At Grade 1 with a conventional cylinder, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical knob lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Pick by function: storeroom stays locked outside and always free egress, entrance can be left unlocked.
6) What is the closest Grade 1 heavy duty alternative to the Falcon X301 privacy knob lock if the X301 is not an option?
Among Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical knob locks, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed cylindrical knob lock in the D Series, and the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 non-keyed cylindrical knob lock in the CK4300 Series with a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. Both are non-keyed like the X301, which is a Grade 1 heavy duty privacy/bed/bath cylindrical knob lock, but the D10S and CK4310 are passage/hall/closet function - they latch without locking. If the opening needs the door to lock from inside for a restroom or bedroom, the privacy function is the deciding difference and a passage lock will not serve it.
7) The door is 2 inches thick and needs a privacy knob - which cylindrical knob locks cover that thickness?
The Falcon X301 accepts door thickness from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, so a 2 inch door is inside its range with room left over. Most Grade 2 and Grade 3 privacy knobs stop short of that: the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy lockset and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob all list 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Among the wider-range knobs, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Above 2 inch and up to 2-1/4 inch, the X301 is the one in this comparison that reaches.
8) Which knob locks besides the Falcon X301 carry a Grade 1 rating for a spec that requires it?
The Grade 1 cylindrical knob locks in this comparison are the Falcon X301 privacy lock, which is Grade 1 heavy duty and UL listed with a 3 hour A label fire rating; the Schlage D10S passage knob, Grade 1 heavy duty; the Sargent 8XG04 storeroom knob, Grade 1 heavy duty with a 2-3/4 inch backset; the BEST 8K entrance knob, Grade 1 heavy duty; and the Corbin Russwin CK4310 passage knob and CK4851 entrance/office knob, both Grade 1. Institutional specs usually pin grade and function together, so match the function column first - the X301 is the privacy one in that group.
9) Why does a privacy lock have an interchangeable core if it is not keyed?
The core is for emergency access and for keeping the door on the same key system as the rest of the building. The X301 is a non-keyed privacy function, so nobody carries a key for normal use, but it takes small format interchangeable cores that are compatible with SFIC products from other manufacturers. If your facility already runs SFIC, this lock joins that system and a maintenance tech can pull and swap the core in seconds without taking the lock apart.
10) What should I use on a coastal or high humidity building instead of a standard privacy knob?
Order the X301 in its XC construction, which combines a stainless steel and nonferrous chassis with stainless steel trim for marine and high moisture environments. Pair it with the 630 satin stainless steel finish rather than a plated brass finish. The standard chassis already carries a zinc dichromate coating for rust resistance, but XC is what Falcon specifies for salt air, natatoriums, and wash-down areas.
11) Is the Falcon X301 overkill for apartment bedroom and bathroom doors?
For a single-family rental it probably is. The X301 is specified commercial, Grade 1 heavy duty, for high traffic openings like schools, healthcare and government buildings. On a standard apartment interior door the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy knob or the Pamex FTF Grade 3 Baron privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors and does the same job. Where the X301 earns its keep is dorms, hotels, clinics, and any restroom the public uses.
12) Is a dummy knob a substitute for the Falcon X301?
No - a dummy knob is trim only. The Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, the Bravura Biloxi dummy knobset and the Omnia 434/0 and 458/0 single dummy latchsets are all dummy function: fixed pulls with no latch and no locking. The Falcon X301 is a cylindrical privacy/bed/bath lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset and an operating latch. Dummy trim belongs on an inactive leaf of a pair or on a door held by a ball catch; it will not latch or secure the opening the X301 is prepped for.
13) For a residential-grade bedroom or bath door, is the Falcon X301 more lock than needed?
For a house or a low-traffic apartment interior, the residential privacy knobs cover the function: the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob privacy lock comes preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike, the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob uses the R027 rose, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Falcon X301 is a commercial, Grade 1 heavy duty privacy lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Backset is the practical divider - a door already bored for 2-3/8 inch is a direct fit for the Baldwin 5000 and a rebore for the X301.
14) We are standardizing a facility on one knob line - what pairs with the Falcon X301 for the keyed and passage openings?
Working within one grade level keeps the spec clean. The Falcon X301 covers the privacy/bed/bath openings at Grade 1 heavy duty on a 2-3/4 inch backset. For the passage and closet doors at the same grade, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage knob and the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knob. For storerooms and keyed doors, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob on a 2-3/4 inch backset and the BEST 8K is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob. Confirm keyway and core system separately, since the X301 uses interchangeable cores.
15) Is a keyless combination knob lock an alternative to the Falcon X301 on a staff restroom?
They solve different problems. The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch - it controls who gets in by code and relocks itself. The Falcon X301 is a privacy/bed/bath lock, non-keyed, locked by the occupant from inside and released on exit. If the restroom needs to be restricted to staff, the combination lock is the access control answer; if it needs the occupant to secure it while in use, that is the privacy function.
16) What knob styles and finishes does the Falcon X301 come in?
Six knob designs, each in six finishes, for 36 combinations. The knob styles are Elite-Gala (EG), Elite-York (EY), Hana-Gala (HG), Hana-York (HY), Troy-Gala (TG) and Troy-York (TY). Finishes are 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless steel, and every knob style is available in all six. For matching a floor of existing openings, 626 satin chrome is the common commercial default.
