Schlage FE285 CEN 716 LAT CEN Century Front Entry Handleset with Latitude Lever, Lower Half Grip, Aged Bronze

This is absolutely gorgeous and super simple to install! Once we had everything laid out it took my husband like 15 min to install!

I love the clean modern lines to this front door handle. I purchased it along with a keyless entry lock and just got complimented on how fresh my front door looks. Will definitely purchase again for other properties if needed.

No fault of the seller of course, but Im not too crazy about how the handle is installed. The bottom portion is held in place by a bolt that must go all the way through the door, with a cap on the inside part of the door covering it up. Im using the application on a garage, so its not a huge deal, but I might think twice if installing it on say a front door application. The bolt that goes into the door jam is a little held up by the metal surrounding it on the door side and sticks, ill take a Dremel to it to file it down and give it a smoother surface to slide across. It does match up to the Schlage Encode lock that I also installed nicely (see separate review for that)

Installed this in minutes. The toughest part was removing the old hardware, after that, this took just a few minutes. Looks great!

Used this for the front door of our house to replace an old knob. It looks great and was pretty easy to install. If you dont already have a handleset youll need to drill a new hole for the bottom piece, but that was quite simple and straightforward. Color is versatile since most of the big brands also make hardware in this color. Planning to eventually upgrade our old deadbolt to Schlage Encode Plus which will match this color exactly

We are really pleased with this handle. It open and closes the door well. I didn’t like making the extra hole in our new door, but I am happy with the results.

The last door know thumb button broke. This was a perfect quick easy replacement.

If you want quality and awesome look, this is it.

I bought this handleset to match the Schlage Century deadbolt (Z-Wave) I had already purchased. Once installed, the deadbolt and this item look very sleek & modern together. The finish looks great and has a clearcoat of some type covering the metal. I purchased a used item that was scratched on the handle area, but with some cleaner wax (car wax) I was able to buff most of it out. One note: when this handleset was first installed, it operated fairly rough and felt like it was sticking a bit. After coating the inside of the latch with some graphite lubricant, the handle operates much smoother. Id buy it again in a second!

Works great, construction and finish are superior and looks great once installed. Wish instructions were specific for the item # and not the type of handle in general
