Overview

About this product

The Falcon W581 Avalon is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock in the storeroom function (ANSI F86), part of Falcon's W Series. It is a practical choice for storage closets, mechanical rooms and janitor closets. The outside lever never unlocks without a key, which suits doors that should always be secured.

It fits a 2-3/4-inch backset with a 2.125-inch cross bore, and the stainless steel latch has a 1/2-inch throw. It carries a 3 hour fire rating with a UL A Label listing and meets ADA requirements. Finishes offered: 613, 626.

What the function does

The outside lever is always locked. From outside, only a key retracts the latch; from inside, turning the lever does. The latch is deadlocking, and the inside is always free for immediate exit.

Highlights

  • Storeroom function, ANSI F86

  • Inside always free for immediate egress
  • 3 hour fire rating, UL A Label listed

How it works

Storeroom function, ANSI F86

The outside lever is always locked and only a key opens it. The inside lever is always free, so nobody gets locked in. Common on storage, mechanical and janitor rooms.

Outside lever Always locked. Turn the key to open, then the door relocks when the key is removed.
Inside lever Always free. Anyone inside can leave without a key.

Common questions

Can the outside lever be left unlocked?

No. The outside lever is always locked on this function, so entry from outside always takes a key. That makes it a fit for doors that should never be left open by accident.

Can I get out of the room without a key?

Yes. The inside is always free, so turning the inside lever opens the door at any time.

Will it fit my existing door prep?

It is built for a 2-3/4-inch backset and a 2.125-inch cross bore, and uses an ANSI strike. Check your door's prep against those sizes before installing.

Is it rated for fire doors?

Yes. It carries a 3 hour fire rating and a UL A Label listing.

What cylinder options are there?

It comes with a conventional Schlage C cylinder, or prepped for a small format interchangeable core (SFIC) with the core left out so you can match an existing keying system.
