Schlage Residential FC285CEN622LATCOL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which handleset should I use on a thick 2-1/4 inch entry door?
The FC285 handles it, its range tops out at 2-1/4 inches. Most residential handlesets do not go that far. The Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, and on the electronic side the Yale Assure BYRD226CBARX and BYRD226NRRX Ridgefield handlesets also cover 1-3/4 to 2-1/4. By contrast the Deltana 810871 Montego and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest stop at 2 inches, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington stops at 1-3/4, so those will not make a 2-1/4 inch door.
2) Does the Schlage FC285 handleset lock, or is it just a pull?
Out of the box the FC285 is a passage set, meaning the lever always turns and nothing locks. Insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side and it converts to a privacy function, with a small emergency unlock that opens it from the outside. There is no key cylinder in it at all, so if you want a keyed front door you pair it with a Schlage deadbolt above the handleset.
3) What door prep does the Schlage FC285 handleset need, and will it cover my existing holes?
It drops onto the standard residential bore: 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and a 1 inch edge bore, with the handleset and deadbolt holes 5-1/2 inches center to center. If your door already has a 2-1/8 inch bore from a previous knob or lever, the FC285 uses it directly. What decides a retrofit is that 5-1/2 inch spacing, if your old handleset ran a different center to center you will have exposed holes from the previous deadbolt location.
4) Will the FC285 latch work with the strike plate already in my jamb?
The latch supplied is a 16-680 with a 1/2 inch throw spring latch and a 1 inch housing diameter, and it ships with square corner, 1/4 inch radius corner, and circular drive-in faceplates so it matches whatever the door edge is mortised for. The matching strike is the 10-269 set, which includes a full lip strike in both square corner and 1-1/4 inch radius round corner. A 1/2 inch throw is a standard residential latch projection, so an existing residential strike in the jamb will normally catch it, but check that your strike lip aligns and swap in the supplied one if it does not.
5) I need a keyed entry handleset for a front door, not a passage or privacy one. What should I order instead of the FC285 Century?
The FC285 Century is non-keyed, running passage as default with a privacy pushbutton option, so it does not take a key from outside. For a keyed front entry, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial Handleset with Eleganti Knob is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset that fits doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador is another single cylinder keyed entry handleset, Grade 3, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and ships as exterior trim only. The Weslock 1411 gives an interior knob with the keyed exterior; the Kwikset 687AMD assumes you are supplying the interior side.
6) We want keypad entry on our rental units. What replaces the Schlage FC285 Century handleset if residents should not carry keys?
The FC285 Century is a mechanical, non-electronic handleset with a passage default and a privacy pushbutton conversion. For keyless entry on the same style of opening, the Yale Real Living BYRD256 Assure Key Free Touchscreen Deadbolt with Ridgefield Passage Handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors over Wi-Fi, and the Yale BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock pairs a standalone touchscreen deadbolt with the same Ridgefield handleset for the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch range without a network. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL San Clemente Handleset with Halifax lever trim carries a Contemporary SmartCode keypad deadbolt and ships with an RCAL latch and RCS strike for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note the thickness floor: all three start at 1-3/4 inch, where the FC285 starts at 1-5/8 inch.
7) What is a comparable non-keyed handleset to the Schlage FC285 Century if I want a lever on the inside rather than a knob?
The Schlage FC285 Century pairs a lower handleset grip with an interior Latitude lever and runs passage as its default function, converting to privacy when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side. Among peer non-keyed handlesets, the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever is also a lever-interior handleset with no key function, but it is a dummy: the Weslock 2815 is a pull-only trim with no latch operation, while the FC285 actually latches and can be locked from inside. If the door needs to close and latch, the FC285 is the one that does it.
8) My door is 1-5/8 inch thick. Which handlesets will actually fit besides the Schlage FC285?
The Schlage FC285 Century covers door thickness from 1-5/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, which is the widest span among the residential handlesets in its class. The Deltana 810871 Montego Handleset fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson Knob fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, so both also take a 1-5/8 inch door. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and fits as well. What will not fit are the fixed 1-3/4 inch units such as the Kwikset 687BW Belleview and the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale, which starts at 1-3/4 inch.
9) Is the Schlage FC285 Century a mortise handleset, and what do I order if my door is prepped for mortise?
No. The FC285 Century is a cylindrical lock, prepped with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore on an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. A door already prepped for a mortise box takes a different unit: the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is an entry mortise trim, offered single cylinder and double cylinder, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek 3002 Memphis and Emtek 3004 Hamilton are brass mortise entrance handlesets, though both are dummy function and do not operate a latch.
10) Which handleset carries the same grade rating as the Schlage FC285 Century for a spec that calls out Grade 2?
The FC285 Century is a Grade 2 handleset. Among the peers, the Master Lock HDLB Series HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2 and carries an entrance function. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview are Grade 3. The difference in application: the Master Lock unit is keyed with a deadbolt, while the FC285 is non-keyed passage and privacy, so matching on grade alone will not match the function on the drawing.
11) Is the Schlage FC285 handed, or do I need to order left and right hand?
One part number covers both swings. The FC285 is non-handed and reversible, so a left hand and a right hand opening take the same box with no field modification. Handy if you are buying for a building and do not want to survey every door before you order.
12) How far does the Schlage Century handleset stick out from the door, and how much room does it need on the stile?
The exterior grip projects 2-1/4 inches off the face and the trim is 2-1/2 inches wide, with an overall handle height of 11-7/8 inches. Interior side is much smaller, a 2-7/8 by 2-7/8 inch rose with 2-3/16 inch projection. Worth checking the 2-1/4 inch projection against a storm door, that clearance is where these get returned.
13) Is the Schlage FC285 handleset strong enough for a rental or multi-family entry door?
It is a Grade 2 residential handleset, zinc bodied over a stainless steel substrate, cylindrical rather than mortise. That suits apartment and condo entries and single family front doors. For a heavier commercial opening you would step up to a commercial mortise or Grade 1 cylindrical lock instead. Among residential handlesets, the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2, while the Kwikset 687 Amador and 687 Belleview are Grade 3.
14) Is a dummy handleset the same thing as the Schlage FC285 passage handleset?
No, and this trips people up. A dummy handleset is fixed trim, nothing moves and there is no latch, it just gets screwed to the door for looks or for the inactive leaf of a pair. The FC285 is a working passage set with a live lever and a latch that retracts, and it converts to privacy with the pushbutton. If you actually want the non-operating version, that is a product like the Emtek 3005 Melrose or the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset.
15) I only need the exterior handleset trim to match existing hardware. Does the Schlage FC285 Century sell that way?
The FC285 Century is a complete non-keyed handleset with an interior Latitude lever and includes all mounting hardware, so it comes as both sides. If exterior-only trim is what the job needs, the Kwikset 687AMD Amador with SmartKey and the Kwikset 687BW Belleview are single cylinder keyed handlesets supplied as exterior only for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 687AMD SMC version is built on the SC1 keyway. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entry mortise trim rather than a complete lockset.
16) What is the difference between the Schlage FC285 Century and the Baldwin Wesley handleset for a front entry?
The Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob or a Carnaby knob as the interior trim and carries an entrance function. The Schlage FC285 Century uses a Latitude lever inside, is non-handed for either swing, and is non-keyed, with passage as the default and a privacy pushbutton conversion. So the choice comes down to knob versus lever on the inside, and whether the opening needs a key from outside.
17) Which handleset should I use on an interior or closet door where a dummy pull is all that is wanted, instead of the FC285 Century?
The FC285 Century operates a latch and converts from passage to privacy with an interior pushbutton, so it is more hardware than a fixed pull needs. For a true dummy, the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range with a lever instead of a knob. The Emtek 3005 Melrose and Emtek 3006 Manhattan are brass mortise dummy handlesets if solid brass trim is the look being matched.
18) Is a solid brass handleset available as an alternative to the zinc Schlage FC285 Century?
The FC285 Century is zinc with a stainless steel substrate and comes in finishes including 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 716 Aged Bronze, 625 Bright Chrome and 530 Black Stainless. If solid brass is the requirement, the Deltana Hanover 803871B, St. Ann 815871 and Kingston 825871 are solid brass entry handlesets, each its own series. Those are keyed entry units, where the FC285 is non-keyed passage and privacy, so confirm the function before swapping on material alone.
19) What finishes and rose styles does the Schlage FC285 Century handleset come in?
Five finishes: 530 Black Stainless, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, and 716 Aged Bronze. Each one is available with any of three interior rose designs, Century, Collins, or Kinsler, so all fifteen combinations are orderable. If you are matching existing hardware across a building, the rose is what changes the look on the interior side, the lever is Latitude throughout.
20) What tools and hardware do I need to install a Schlage FC285 handleset on a pre-bored door?
On a door already bored 2-1/8 inch face and 1 inch edge, a screwdriver is all it takes, the three step install uses the mounting hardware supplied in the box and templates for hole location. Exterior trim mounts with concealed screws, so there is no visible fastener on the outside face. What is not in the box is a deadbolt, budget that separately if the opening needs to lock with a key.
