Schlage Residential F60 CEN 625 MER RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F60 Century handleset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it only for 1-3/4?
Both. The F60 Century handleset installs on doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, so it covers the thinner older entry doors as well as the standard 1-3/4 inch slab. The through-bolt is adjustable, which is what lets one part number span the range.
2) Does the Schlage F60 handleset work with a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need 2-3/4?
Either one. The F60 ships with an adjustable latch that sets to 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, the two backsets used on residential doors, so you do not have to know the bore location before you order. Door prep is a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch or 7/8 inch edge bore.
3) Do I have to order the Schlage F60 Century handleset left hand or right hand?
Handing is picked at order time on the F60 Century, left hand or right hand, but the lock itself is non-handed and reversible for either swing. Pick the hand that matches the door you are standing in front of and the thumbpiece and lever will orient correctly.
4) Can I key a Schlage F60 handleset to match the Schlage locks already on my other doors?
Yes, if those locks are Schlage C keyway. The F60 uses a conventional 5-pin Schlage C cylinder, which is the standard residential Schlage keyway, so a locksmith can key it alike to the rest of a property on the same keyway. That is the usual path for a landlord standardizing units or a homeowner who wants one key for front and back doors.
5) How does a single cylinder handleset lock and unlock, and is it safe next to a glass sidelite?
Key from the outside, thumbturn on the inside. The F60 throws and retracts the deadbolt by key from outside or the inside thumbturn, and the latch retracts by thumbpiece outside or by the interior Merano lever. Because the inside is a thumbturn and not a keyed cylinder, anyone reaching through broken glass beside the door can operate it, so on a door with an adjacent glass panel within arm's reach a double cylinder trim is the safer choice.
6) Will a Schlage F60 Century handleset cover the holes from the handleset I am taking off?
Check the grip spread before you commit. The Century sectional trim measures 17-13/16 inches overall with grip center to center at 8-3/8 or 9-7/8 inches, exterior trim 11-7/8 by 2-1/2 inches, and it projects 2-1/4 inches off the face. If the old set used the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore and standard door prep it goes straight in, but a handleset with a wider through-bolt spread than the F60's plate will leave holes showing.
7) Is a Grade 3 handleset enough for a rental unit entrance, or should I stay with the Grade 2 Schlage F60?
The Schlage F60 Century carries a Grade 2 rating. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder keyed entry handlesets are Grade 3 entrance sets. The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2, matching the F60. BHMA grade reflects tested cycle life and strength, so for a tenant-turnover entrance a Grade 2 set is the like-for-like choice against the F60 and Grade 3 sits a tier below it in the tested rating.
8) Which handlesets look like a substitute for a Schlage F60 keyed entry but will not lock the door?
The F60 Century is a keyed entrance handleset: the deadbolt is thrown or retracted by key from outside or by the inside thumbturn, and the latch is retracted by the thumbpiece or the inside lever. Several similar-looking handlesets are dummy function and have no keyed cylinder or latch at all -- the Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise entrance handlesets are all dummy function, as are the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever and the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob. Those are surface-mounted pulls for an inactive leaf, not a replacement for a locking entry set.
9) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage F60 Century handleset with Merano lever if I need a keyed entry handleset from another brand?
The Schlage F60 Century is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset with a Merano lever interior and a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range in an entry function, so it drops into the same door preparation range without shimming or a thicker door. The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is also a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in an entrance function, matching the F60 Century's Grade 2 rating.
10) Does the Schlage F60 Century need a mortise pocket in the door like some entry trims?
No. The Schlage F60 Century installs on standard bored door preparation -- a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch or 7/8 inch edge bore, with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Several entry sets in the same style category are mortise instead: the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim comes in single cylinder and double cylinder versions for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Emtek 3002 Memphis and 3004 Hamilton are brass mortise handlesets. Mortise trim requires a routed lock pocket in the door edge, which a bored door does not have.
11) I am rekeying a building to Schlage C keyway. Which handleset alternatives use a different key system?
The Schlage F60 Century uses a conventional 5 pin Schlage C cylinder, so it keys alike with the rest of a Schlage C system. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder handlesets are Grade 3 entrance sets built around SmartKey, and the 687AMD SMC version is specified with an SC1 keyway with SmartKey. Those are separate key systems from a conventional Schlage C cylinder and would need to be planned into the keying schedule rather than dropped into an existing Schlage C group.
12) Does the Schlage F60 come with the latch and strike, or do I order those separately?
Both are included. The F60 comes with the 12-322 dual option latch, which gives you a round corner faceplate and a drive-in collar in the same box, plus the 10-115 round corner full lip strike set. So if your jamb is prepped for a round corner strike or you are working a drive-in bore with no faceplate mortise, you are covered without a second order line. Square corner faceplates are also part of the F60 latch offering.
13) Is a bored handleset like the Schlage F60 the same thing as a mortise handleset?
No, and the door prep is different. The F60 is a bored set: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with an edge bore, deadbolt and latch as separate bored components. A mortise handleset needs a pocket cut into the door edge and cannot drop into a standard bored prep. Baldwin's Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim is the mortise route, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder for 1-3/4 inch doors. If your door is already bored, stay with the F60.
14) Is there a Grade 2 handleset alternative to the Schlage F60 with a keyed entry function?
The Master Lock HDLB Series HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also a Grade 2 entrance set. The Kwikset Amador 687AMD and Belleview 687BW single cylinder keyed handlesets are Grade 3 and sold as exterior trim only for 1-3/4 inch doors, so they are a lighter-duty step down and do not include the interior lever the F60 carries.
15) I want a knob on the inside instead of the Merano lever. What keyed entry handlesets use a knob?
The Schlage F60 Century pairs its exterior thumbpiece with a Merano lever on the interior. For a knob interior in a keyed entry set, the Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob and with a Carnaby knob, both entrance function. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset uses a Hudson knob and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset uses an Eleganti knob on doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
16) I want a keypad or smartphone entry handleset instead of a keyed one. What are the options?
The Schlage F60 Century is a mechanical, non-electronic handleset keyed on the exterior with an inside thumbturn. If a resident-managed code or phone credential is wanted instead, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs Halifax lever interior trim with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt on a 1-3/4 inch door. The Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock pairs a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the BYRD226NRRX is the standalone touchscreen version of the same Ridgefield pairing. For a turnover unit where no key is wanted at all, the BYRD256 CBARX is a key free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset.
17) Do I get the interior trim with a Schlage F60 Century, or do some handlesets ship exterior only?
The Schlage F60 Century is a complete assembly -- exterior thumbpiece handle plus the Merano lever and thumbturn on the inside. Some handlesets are sold as exterior halves only: the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder keyed entry handlesets are exterior only, meaning the interior knob or lever and its trim are ordered separately. Confirm which half is in the box before quoting a full opening.
18) I need a double cylinder entry set for a door with glass beside it. What replaces the single cylinder Schlage F60?
The Schlage F60 Century is single cylinder -- keyed outside, thumbturn inside. Where a keyed cylinder is wanted on both faces, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim is a double cylinder entrance set for 1-3/4 inch doors; its single cylinder counterpart is the Baldwin 6542 Tremont single cylinder entry mortise trim. Note that a double cylinder set requires a mortise pocket rather than the bored prep the F60 uses, and local egress code governs whether double cylinder is permitted on the opening.
19) What solid brass handleset alternatives are there to the zinc-and-steel Schlage F60 Century?
The Schlage F60 Century is built from zinc and steel. For a solid brass entry handleset, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann and the 825871 Kingston, all solid brass in entry function. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, a wider slab range than the F60's 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
20) What finishes does the Schlage F60 Century handleset come in?
Three: 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, and 716 aged bronze. Each is available in both left hand and right hand. If you are matching existing Schlage trim in a building, 619 is the one that lines up with most contemporary residential packages, and 716 with the darker traditional ones.
21) How much interior clearance does the Merano lever need behind the door?
The interior side of the F60 is compact: interior trim 2-3/4 by 2-3/4 inches, interior handle 2-1/16 by 2-1/16 inches, projecting 2-5/16 inches from the face of the door. That matters where the door swings back against a wall or a piece of casework, since a lever needs room to rotate without striking anything. Handle height on the exterior grip is 8-1/2 inches.
22) What tools do I need to install a Schlage F60 handleset on an already prepped door?
A screwdriver. On a door that already has the 2-1/8 inch cross bore and edge bore, the F60 goes on in three steps using the adjustable through-bolt, which slides up and down to meet the lower bolt hole rather than forcing you to hit an exact spacing. If the door is not prepped, you will be drilling the cross bore and edge bore from the template first.
