Falcon Lock W581BDDAN626 2-3/4 Storeroom Cylindrical Lock

Product Description

The FALCON LOCK W581BDDAN626 2-3/4 is a storeroom-function cylindrical lockset equipped with a Dane lever handle and a deadlatch mechanism. It is designed for use with Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) cylinders and ships less core, meaning the core must be sourced and installed separately to match the facility keying system. The lock features an ANSI standard strike plate and a 2-3/4 inch backset. Finished in 626/US26D Satin Chrome, it meets Grade 2 standards and carries a UL listing. This lockset is installed by locksmiths, commercial door hardware specialists, and facilities maintenance professionals.

The storeroom function means the lever is always locked from the outside and can only be opened with a key, while the inside lever remains free-turning at all times. This configuration is common in commercial and institutional settings where rooms must remain secured from unauthorized entry - such as storage rooms, supply closets, server rooms, and similar restricted-access spaces. The SFIC less-core format makes it well-suited for large facilities operating a master key or best-key interchangeable core system where cores are managed independently of the lockset hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware technician familiar with commercial cylindrical lockset procedures. Ensure the door is properly prepared with the correct bore diameter and backset measurement before installation. The SFIC core must be installed or programmed by an authorized key control administrator before the lock is placed into service. Consult local building codes and applicable ANSI/BHMA hardware standards to confirm the correct function and grade for the intended application.
