Overview

Do you have vertical sliding windows with loose-fitting, worn or missing locks? Besides adding a “new look” to your windows with a fresh set of locking hardware, these sash locks can help add peace of mind by restoring the security features on your vertical sliding windows. These locks feature a design that allows them to lock aluminum-framed single-hung and double-hung vertical sliding windows without the need of a keeper. Each lock features a cam-type locking mechanism that mounts on the top checkrail of the bottom, innermost sash, and engages into the bottom checkrail of the upper, outermost sash. The upper, outermost sash determines if the window is “single hung” or “double hung.” If the upper, outermost sash is non-movable, then it is a single hung window. A “double hung” window refers to both sash having the ability to slide up and down for ventilation purposes, and these sash locks can fit on both model types. The locks are constructed of diecast zinc, and each feature a deep offset latch. They come in a beautiful, industry standard white-painted finish to match other existing hardware that may already be in the home or office. Depending on the size of the sash, these locks can be used as singles or in pairs. Each set includes one lock, installation fasteners and simple instructions. Installation of these locks is quick and easy and can be done with a simple handheld Phillips head screwdriver. Other design features include a 9/32 inch latch projection, cam-action fastening, and 2-1/4 inch mounting hole centers.
