Falcon W561PDAN626 Classroom Dane Lever Lockset Satin Chrome

Product Description

The FALCON W561PDAN626 is a W Series classroom lever lockset designed for institutional and commercial door hardware applications. It features the Dane lever trim, a C keyway cylinder keyed different (KD), and ships complete with a 30197 latch and 30148 strike plate. The satin chrome (626) finish delivers a clean, durable appearance suited to high-traffic educational environments. Licensed locksmiths, commercial door hardware installers, and facility maintenance teams are the typical installers. The interchangeable core design allows for rapid re-keying without a locksmith by simply swapping the core cylinder.

This lockset is built for classroom function, where the lever remains locked from the outside while allowing free egress from the interior at all times — a configuration commonly required by life safety and building codes in school facilities. It is appropriate for single-door commercial or institutional applications where controlled access and code-compliant egress are required. The included latch and strike simplify procurement by delivering a ready-to-install hardware set in one unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician. Verify door prep dimensions and backset before installation to confirm the latch and strike are compatible with the door and frame. Ensure the door is not under load and the building access control system is accounted for before removing existing hardware. Local building and life safety codes, including applicable IBC egress requirements, should be confirmed prior to final installation.
