Difference Between Schlage F60 and FE285

The main difference between the Schlage Model F60 and FE285 is that the F60 includes both the handle set and deadbolt (B60), providing a complete locking solution, while the FE285 does not include any locking mechanism. If you choose the FE285, you will need to purchase a deadbolt separately, as it does not include any locking functionality. The F60 is ideal if you prefer a mechanical deadbolt included in the set, whereas the FE285 allows for more flexibility if you want to pair it with an electronic deadbolt.
