Overview
About this product
The Falcon MA521 is an MA Series mortise lock with the entry/office function with button lockout, shown here in the Sutro-Gala trim (SG). It suits private offices, exam rooms and small conference rooms. The function determines what each lever, key and turn does, so it is worth matching to how the room is used.
It is rated Grade 1 under ANSI/BHMA 156.13, UL listed with a fire rating of 3 hours, and ADA compliant. Finishes offered: 605, 606, 625, 626, 630. Cylinder choices: 6-pin conventional cylinder (Schlage C); LFIC prep, less core; SFIC prep, less core.
What the function does
With the buttons in the lock face set to unlocked, the lever on either side retracts the latch bolt. When the buttons lock the outside lever, the outside retracts the latch bolt only by key, while the inside lever still retracts it. An auxiliary dead latch is included.

How do I lock the outside lever?
Set the buttons in the face of the lock, on the edge of the door. Once they are set, the outside lever is inoperative and entry from outside is by key.
Can someone inside get out when the outside is locked?
Yes. Operating the inside lever retracts the latch bolt even when the outside lever is locked.
Does this lock have a dead bolt?
No. This function uses a latch bolt with an auxiliary dead latch. Choose an entry/office function with a dead bolt if the door needs one.
Can it be used on a fire-rated door?
Yes. This lock is UL listed, with a fire rating of 3 hours. Check the door and frame labels as well.
What cylinder options are available?
This lock is offered as 6-pin conventional cylinder (Schlage C); LFIC prep, less core; SFIC prep, less core. Choose based on whether your building uses conventional keying or an interchangeable core system.
