Sash Fastener

A sash fastener is a type of hardware component used to secure a sash window in the closed position. Sash windows are a type of window that consists of one or more movable panels, or sashes, that slide vertically or horizontally within the frame.

Sash fasteners typically consist of a catch or latch that is attached to one sash and a strike plate that is attached to the other sash or to the window frame. The catch is engaged with the strike plate by rotating a lever or knob, which locks the sashes in place.

Sash fasteners come in a variety of designs, materials, and finishes to match the style and decor of the window and surrounding room. Some common types of sash fasteners include:

Traditional sash fasteners - these are typically made of brass or cast iron and feature a simple, classic design.
Lockable sash fasteners - these have an added locking mechanism that allows the user to secure the window with a key.
Decorative sash fasteners - these are designed to add a touch of style and elegance to the window, and can come in a variety of ornate designs and finishes.
Sash fasteners are an important component of sash windows, providing both security and functionality. When selecting a sash fastener, it's important to ensure that it is compatible with the size and type of sash window being used, and that it meets any relevant building codes or regulations.
