FAQ
1.What is a sash lock?
A sash lock is a lock that is fixed to a vertical sliding sash. It is used to lock the sash and prevent the window from opening. Sash locks are used on uPVC, timber or aluminium windows. On some older wooden sashes, sash locks are often called fitch fasteners, sash fasteners, brighton fasteners, cam locks, claw fasteners or quadrant fasteners.
2.What is the difference between a sash lock and a sliding window lock?
Sliding windows are hinged and can be opened outwards. Their locks usually have both handle and lock functions. You need to turn a key or press a lock button and move the handle to open the window. Sash windows, on the other hand, slide open vertically. Sash locks are also often called sash retainers. They do not act as handles. They only unrestrict the window so that it can be opened. To open the window, you need to slide the sash or use a rope.
