Schlage Residential FE789WBC CEN 625 LAT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage FE789 Encode keypad lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, or does it need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Both work. The FE789 Encode lever covers a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the description also calls out the in-between thicknesses of 1-1/2 and 1-5/8 inches, so odd older doors are covered too. Standard commercial and exterior residential doors are 1-3/4 inch, and most older interior doors are 1-3/8, so you are inside the range either way.
2) Does the Schlage FE789 Encode lever drop into my existing door prep, or do I have to re-bore the door?
It goes into standard prep with no new boring in most cases. The FE789 needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the same prep a standard cylindrical lockset uses, and the backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches so you do not have to match the hole location exactly. Three faceplates ship in the box (round corner, square corner, and drive-in), so whichever way the old latch was prepped, one of them fits.
3) Do I need to order the Schlage FE789 Encode lever left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The FE789 Encode lever is non-handed, and the latch is reversible for left or right hand doors, so one part number covers either swing. Pick the finish and the keying and you are done.
4) I manage several units and want one key to open all the Schlage Encode locks. Can these be keyed alike?
Yes. Keying is a required choice when ordering: KD keyed different is the standard, and KA keyed alike ties multiple locks to one key, which is what you want across a unit or a small portfolio. There is also a key code field if you are matching an existing system. The FE789 is a keyed lock, so the cylinder is there as a mechanical backup even though daily use is the keypad or the app.
5) Can the Baldwin 8225 be used on a 1-3/8 inch door in place of the Schlage FE789?
No. The Baldwin Estate 8225 Minneapolis touchscreen deadbolt is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors only, so a thinner door is outside its range. The Schlage FE789 Encode covers 1-3/8, 1-1/2, 1-5/8 and 1-3/4 inch thicknesses, so on lighter interior or older residential doors the FE789 is the one that fits.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage FE789 Encode lever if I need the same keyless entry on a door that only takes a deadbolt?
The Schlage FE789 Encode is a keypad lever with a deadbolt-style lock function, non-handed, adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset, for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening takes a bored deadbolt instead of a lever, the Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D is an electronic deadbolt in the Saffire Series with Wi-Fi and BLE, plus an NMKO mechanical override and vertical mounting. Both give code-based entry with wireless control; the FE789 puts the keypad on the lever trim while the LZ-D is a standalone deadbolt body.
7) I have 1-3/4 inch solid doors and want a touchscreen keypad instead of pushbuttons - what else works?
The Schlage FE789 Encode uses a keypad reader with a capacitive touchscreen and covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a touchscreen deadbolt on the same thickness, the Baldwin Estate 8225 Minneapolis is a stand alone touchscreen deadbolt listed for 1-3/4 inch doors with an entrance function and a Schlage C keyway. The 8225 is a stand alone unit, while the FE789 is a keyed lever with built-in WiFi and app control.
8) Does the Schlage Encode FE789 need a hub or bridge to work remotely?
No hub, no bridge, no wiring. WiFi is built into the lock, so it connects straight to the building or unit network and you lock, unlock, and check history from the Schlage Home app from anywhere. Alexa and Google Assistant work with it directly. Where it does depend on something you already have is the WiFi signal itself: if the door is at the edge of coverage, the remote features are only as good as the network reaching that door.
9) How many tenant or contractor codes can a Schlage Encode FE789 hold?
Up to 100 access codes per lock, each managed from the app with notifications and lock history. That is enough to give every tenant, cleaner, and trade a code of their own on a rental or a small multi-family building, and pull an individual code when someone leaves without rekeying anything. The keypad buttons light up when pressed from outside, which matters on an unlit entry.
10) What powers the Schlage FE789 Encode lever and what happens when the batteries run down?
Four AA batteries, included in the box, with no hardwiring. A low battery indicator gives weeks of warning before replacement, and the lock is keyed, so a mechanical key still gets you in. For a property manager running several doors, that means battery swaps land on a schedule rather than an emergency call.
11) What strike comes with the Schlage FE789 Encode lever, and do I need to add a reinforcer?
The 10-116 round corner strike ships with it, and it is an integrated strike and reinforcer, so you are not buying a separate box strike or reinforcing plate for a standard wood jamb. If your existing jamb is cut for a square corner strike, plan on trimming the mortise to the round corner profile.
12) Should I put a smart lever or a smart deadbolt on my entry door?
The FE789 Encode is a lever, so it handles latching and locking in one cylindrical prep, which suits a door that has never had a deadbolt, a garage or side entry, or an ADA-minded opening where a lever is easier to operate than a knob. If the door already has a separate deadbolt bore above the knob and you want to keep that two-point setup, a smart deadbolt is the part that goes there instead. ZenSupply carries the Baldwin Estate 8225 touchscreen deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway, which is worth knowing if you are trying to stay on one key system, and the Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D electronic deadbolt with WiFi and BLE.
13) If I am standardizing a rental property on Schlage C keys, does a Baldwin touchscreen deadbolt break the keying?
The Baldwin Estate 8225 Minneapolis touchscreen deadbolt is built with a Schlage C keyway, so it takes the same key section as Schlage C cylinders. The Schlage FE789 Encode is a keyed lever and can be ordered keyed different or keyed alike for multiple locks. For a property manager matching keys across a set of doors, both can sit on the same key section, with the FE789 carrying the lever trim and the 8225 the deadbolt.
14) Which of these smart locks still opens if the electronics or batteries fail?
The Schlage FE789 Encode is a keyed lever running on 4 AA batteries, so it retains a mechanical key override on the exterior trim. The Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D electronic deadbolt carries an NMKO override instead of a standard key cylinder. If the requirement is a conventional cut key in the hands of a maintenance tech, the FE789 is the one that matches that workflow.
15) I need Wi-Fi control without a hub - is the Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D the same kind of lock as the Schlage FE789 Encode?
Both are battery-powered electronic locks with Wi-Fi. The Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D is an electronic deadbolt in the Saffire Series with Wi-Fi and BLE and is Lyazon compatible, so it is aimed at a managed credential platform. The Schlage FE789 Encode is a residential keypad lever with built-in WiFi, up to 100 access codes, and Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control. They are not interchangeable trims: one mounts as a deadbolt with vertical mounting, the other replaces the lever.
16) What should I use instead of the Schlage FE789 if the door already has a lever and I only need to add a code-entry deadbolt above it?
The Schlage FE789 Encode is itself the lever, with a triple-option latch and a 10-116 round corner integrated strike and reinforcer, so installing it means replacing the existing lever trim. Where the lever stays and only the deadbolt bore is being filled, the Baldwin Estate 8225 Minneapolis is a stand alone touchscreen deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D is an electronic deadbolt with vertical mounting.
17) What finishes does the Schlage FE789 Encode keypad lever come in for matching the rest of my doors?
Five finishes: 530 Black Stainless, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, and 716 Aged Bronze. Satin nickel and bright chrome are the ones that blend with existing builder-grade hardware; matte black and aged bronze are the choices when the rest of the openings have been updated. Ordering keyed alike across several doors does not restrict the finish, so units can differ in look and still share a key.
18) Is the Schlage Encode FE789 keypad a touchscreen or physical buttons?
Capacitive touchscreen keypad, illuminated when you touch it from the exterior. That is worth knowing if you are specifying for gloved trades or cold-climate exterior use, where a touchscreen behaves differently from a mechanical pushbutton keypad. The Baldwin Estate 8225 is also a touchscreen; the Dormakaba Saffire EVO LZ-D adds BLE and NMKO override alongside its WiFi if you want a non-keypad credential path.
