Falcon

Cylindrical lock portfolio

A cylindrical lock, also commonly referred to as a bored lock, is a lock in which a large hole is bored into the door face of a door and a smaller cross-bore hole is bored into the door edge.

When purchasing a lock, it is important to consider all of the variables. Outside of the standard considerations such as door type, door thickness, frame size, and backset, it is also important to consider the lock's application.

Falcon offers a variety of Grade 1 and Grade 2 cylindrical locks that fit different applications depending on the door opening. This guide provides basic information about each lock and their suggested applications.

Falcon Grade 1 cylindrical locks

Certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 cylindrical locks are designed to handle high traffic and high abuse door applications. When security is important, a certified Grade 1 product is recommended to ensure the door can remain operational and locked when required. A good example of a high traffic, high abuse door application is a classroom door. Falcon offers two different certified Grade 1 locks. Each product is uniquely designed to provide you with high quality and security for your door opening at a reasonable price.

The Falcon T Series is not only certified but also tested beyond ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 standards to ensure quality, reliability and security. A wide variety of functions, including classroom security and electrified options, finishes, and lever designs allow the Falcon T lock to meet a variety of door needs in facilities requiring a tough lock. The Falcon T lock is also perfect for large retrofit projects where a key system is already established because the Falcon T Series can accept competitive standard cylinders, SFIC and FSIC.

Example application: A high traffic classroom door is an appropriate application for the Falcon T Series.

Falcon Grade 2 cylindrical locks

Certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cylindrical locks are designed to handle light to moderate foot traffic and regular use door applications. If simple latching and locking is the only requirement and security is not as high of a concern, a certified Grade 2 product is recommended to ensure proper functionality. A good example of a moderate traffic, regular use door would be a public restroom for a small retail store. Falcon offers two Grade 2 cylindrical locks uniquely designed to meet a variety of door opening needs.

B Series

The Falcon B Series is not only certified but also tested beyond ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 standards to ensure quality and reliability. The Falcon B Series is the perfect lock when a door will be used frequently and durability is needed, but Grade 1 security isn't required.

Example application: A moderate traffic door in a public library is an appropriate application for the Falcon B Series.

Functions: Passage, communicating, privacy, connecting, entry, entry/office, classroom, storeroom, assisted living, single dummy
