Schlage Residential FE285 CAM 716 GEO – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Schlage FE285 handleset on a 2 inch thick door?
No. The FE285 tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For a thicker slab, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, the Deltana 810871 Montego covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Yale Ridgefield handleset packages run 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches. Measure the door edge before you order, since custom and solid wood entry doors often run over 1-3/4.
2) Does the Schlage FE285 handleset lock, or do I need a deadbolt with it?
You need a deadbolt. The FE285 is a non-keyed lower handleset: the latch is retracted by the thumbpiece from outside or by the inside knob, and there is no cylinder in it. It is meant to be combined with an electronic deadbolt above it to make a complete front entry set. If you want the handleset itself to carry the key, this is the wrong part.
3) Do I have to order the Schlage FE285 handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The FE285 is non-handed and uses a universal latch, so one part number works on an inswing left or right door. That is one less thing to get wrong on a multi-unit order where the doors do not all swing the same way.
4) Will the Schlage FE285 latch drop into the strike that is already in my door frame?
Usually yes, if the existing strike is a standard radius-corner residential strike. The FE285 comes with the 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 x 1-5/8 inches, and the latch has a 1/2 inch throw with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate on a 1/4 inch radius corner. If the frame currently has a square-corner strike mortise, you will need to file the corners or reuse a square-corner strike, because the supplied one is radius.
5) I want one handleset that includes the electronic deadbolt instead of buying them separately - what are my options?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is the lower handleset only; it is a non-electronic part that combines with an electronic deadbolt to make up the complete front entry set. If you would rather order the deadbolt and handleset as one item, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset comes with a Halifax lever interior trim and a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt, SmartKey cylinder, RCAL latch and RCS strike, and is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Yale Assure Lock BYRD226CBARX pairs a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
6) What is the difference between the Schlage FE285 Camelot handleset with Georgian knob and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador handleset?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is a non-keyed lower handleset carrying an ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rating, and it fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset rated Grade 3 and specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, supplied as exterior trim only. So the two differ on three counts a buyer has to settle before ordering: keyed versus non-keyed operation, the grade, and whether the 1-3/8 inch door in front of you is in range.
7) Which handleset should I use on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot handleset with Georgian knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a thicker slab needs a different part. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, as is the Deltana 810871 Montego handleset. For heavier doors still, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Assure Lock BYRD226NRRX with Ridgefield handleset covers the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch range.
8) Can I use an Emtek 3002 Memphis handleset in place of the Schlage FE285?
Not on an operating door. The Emtek 3002 Memphis brass mortise entrance handleset is a dummy - it is surface-applied trim with no latch action. The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is an entrance function set whose latch retracts by thumbpiece from the outside or by the inside knob. The same applies to the Emtek 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan, all of which are dummy function. Use a dummy only on an inactive leaf of a pair of doors.
9) Will the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont mortise trim work where the Schlage FE285 does?
They prep differently. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, is trim for a mortise lock body and is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is a bored handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors that uses a 16-080 spring latch and a 10-027 full lip radius strike. A door prepped for one will not take the other without rework.
10) What finishes does the Schlage FE285 Camelot handleset come in?
Seven: 505 Lifetime Brass, 605 Bright Brass, 609 Antique Brass, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome and 716 Aged Bronze. If you are matching existing Schlage hardware across a building, order by that three digit code rather than the finish name, since the codes are what stay consistent across their lines.
11) I want a keyed handleset instead of a non-keyed one. What should I look at?
The FE285 has no cylinder in it by design, so if you need the key in the handleset itself, look at a single cylinder handleset instead. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob is a single cylinder handleset covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset in satin nickel for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the FE285.
12) Is the Camelot handleset with Georgian knob a working set or just decorative trim?
It operates. The Georgian knob turns and retracts the latch from inside, and the thumbpiece retracts it from outside. That distinguishes it from dummy handlesets like the Emtek 3002 Memphis or the Weslock 6695 Belmont, which are surface-mounted trim for an inactive leaf and do nothing mechanically.
13) Can I install the FE285 latch in a door that has no mortised faceplate pocket?
Yes. The included 16-080 latch has both a round drive-in option and a standard faceplate option, so if the door edge is bored but not mortised you can drive the circular collar straight into the 7/8 inch latch bore and skip chiseling the faceplate pocket. Both configurations are in the box.
14) What is a Grade 2 alternative to the Schlage FE285 handleset?
The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset from the HDLB Series, matching the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rating on the Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob. The functional difference is that the Master Lock is a single cylinder keyed set with the deadbolt included, while the FE285 is a non-keyed lower handleset intended to pair with a separate deadbolt.
15) I need a knob-style handleset rather than a lever - which ones use a knob interior?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot handleset uses the Georgian knob for the interior trim. Other knob-trim entrance handlesets include the Baldwin Wesley handleset with Alcott knob and the Baldwin Wesley with Carnaby knob, both entrance function, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. If you are matching a knob look on an inactive leaf, the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob is a dummy handleset covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
16) What solid brass handlesets can I use instead of the Schlage FE285 on an entry door?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is built on a zinc and steel substrate. If the specification calls for solid brass, Deltana offers several entry handlesets in solid brass: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston, all entry function. Confirm the door thickness against each before ordering, since the FE285 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
17) If I do not want any keys on the front door, what can I use besides the Schlage FE285?
The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is non-keyed and relies on a separate deadbolt for the locking function. For a key-free package in a single item, the Yale Assure Key Free BYRD256 CBARX pairs a touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield passage handleset and trim for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Yale Assure Lock 2 BYRD410BLERX is a key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and the Ridgefield handleset covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both are electronic; the FE285 is not.
18) Does the Kwikset 687BW Belleview come with the interior trim like the Schlage FE285?
No. The Kwikset 687BW Belleview single cylinder handleset with SmartKey is supplied as exterior trim only and is a Grade 3 set for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage FE285 Camelot includes the Georgian knob for the inside of the door, with the latch retracted by thumbpiece from outside or by that inside knob. If you order the Kwikset you will need to source the interior trim separately.
19) I key my buildings on Schlage C keyway - does the Kwikset 687AMD SMC match that?
No. The Kwikset 687AMD SMC Amador single cylinder handleset uses an SC1 keyway with SmartKey. The Schlage FE285 Camelot with Georgian knob is non-keyed, so the keying decision on that opening sits with the deadbolt it is combined with rather than with the handleset itself. Where you are standardizing a fleet of doors, settle the keyway on the deadbolt and let the FE285 handle the latch.
