Sash Lock for Single/Double Hung Wood Windows, Antique Brass-Plated

Vertical sliding wood windows with loose-fitting, worn, or missing locks can benefit from the addition of a new set of locking hardware, which can provide a fresh look and restore the security features of the windows. These sash locks are designed to mount on wooden single-hung and double-hung vertical sliding windows, featuring a cam-type mechanism that draws the keeper in firmly towards the lock, resulting in tighter seals, better weatherizing, and increased security.

Constructed of stamped steel lock bases and keepers, with diecast zinc levers, these sash locks come in a corrosion-resistant, industry-standard antique brass-plated finish to match existing hardware in the home. Depending on the size of the sash, the locks can be used as singles or in pairs, with each set including one lock, one keeper, installation fasteners, and simple instructions.

The installation of these sash locks is straightforward and can be done using a simple handheld Phillips head screwdriver. The locks feature a low-profile keeper, cam-action fastening, 1-3/4 inch mounting hole centers on the lock, and 1-1/2 hole centers on the keeper.

These sash locks are designed for use on older vertical sliding wood windows where the checkrails (also known as "meeting rails") of both the inner and outer sash rest flush. It is important to compare the style and dimensions of this lock to those required on your sliding windows and order accordingly.

The sash lock and keeper are constructed from stamped steel and come finished in antique brass. The cam-action lock design is a universal feature used by many window manufacturers. These locks mount on the check (or "meeting") rails of single and double-hung sash where their checkrails rest flush when closed.

Replacing loose-fitting, worn, or missing sash locks can help restore and increase the safety and security of the home or office. The cam-type locking mechanism is designed to grab and pull the keeper and meeting rails firmly together, providing tighter seals and increased security.

In summary, these sash locks offer a simple and effective solution for upgrading the security and appearance of older vertical sliding wood windows. With their durable construction, corrosion-resistant finish, and easy installation, they can help homeowners or office managers enhance the safety and weatherproofing of their windows with minimal effort.
