Schlage Catches and Latches

Find a Schlage latch replacement for your door hardware repair. Compare spring latches, deadlatches, deadbolt assemblies and replacement faceplates by lock series, function, backset and door-edge preparation. Similar-looking parts can fit different locks, so use the exact model and installation details to narrow your selection.

Not sure which latch works with your lock? Start with our Schlage latch compatibility chart and replacement guide. It compares common residential model families and explains what to measure before ordering. For commercial, older or fire-rated hardware, confirm the specific series and assembly requirements before choosing a replacement part.

For help identifying the existing door-edge preparation, read our drive-in vs. faceplate door latch guide, including square- and round-corner faceplates.

Finding the Right Schlage Replacement Latch

Start your Schlage latch replacement search with the lock model and the mechanism being repaired. A spring latch for a passage or privacy knob, a keyed-lock deadlatch and a deadbolt assembly serve different functions. A handleset can also have separate upper and lower mechanisms. Identify which part is worn or damaged before comparing listings. The outside handle style alone does not establish compatibility, and a replacement faceplate should not be mistaken for a complete latch assembly. Check the included components in the individual product description.

This collection includes adjustable and fixed-backset parts, along with round-corner, square-corner and drive-in configurations. Measure backset from the door edge to the center of the lock bore, then compare it with the selected part. Record faceplate width and height, corner shape and screw spacing as well. Extended-backset listings need particular attention because a standard adjustable latch may not accommodate the opening. When replacing existing hardware, compare the connecting mechanism and the full model information in addition to the visible faceplate. Match the selected finish to the other visible hardware once compatibility has been established.

Our Schlage latch compatibility guide provides a starting chart for common residential families, including F10/F40, F51/F80, selected FE keypad locks, FE285 lower handlesets and Schlage Custom FC models. It also covers the listed residential deadbolt families. Use the chart to narrow the options, then check the exact product specifications before ordering. Triple-option and dual-option descriptions refer to the supplied mounting configurations; they do not mean a part works with every Schlage lock. Keep both the lock model and replacement part number in your project notes.

For commercial locks, older installations or fire-rated openings, confirm the series, function and applicable service-manual requirements before substituting parts. A part that resembles the old latch may still have a different housing, connection or intended application. If identification is unclear, gather photographs of the inside handle, outside handle and door edge, plus backset and faceplate measurements, before contacting us. Include the approximate installation date and original paperwork if available. These details help distinguish similar assemblies and make it easier to identify what additional information is needed for the repair.
