Keepers and strikes serve as the critical locking points for sash, casement, and awning windows. When paired with the appropriate locks or operators, they ensure the window closes and latches securely, preventing drafts and unauthorized entry. Selecting the right keeper or strike is vital for maintaining window integrity, smooth operation, and safety.
What Are Keepers & Strikes?
A keeper (sometimes called a strike plate or simply a strike) is the metal component mounted on the window frame or sash that the lock mechanism engages with. In sash windows, the keeper aligns with the locking cam, while in casement and awning windows, the operator's locking arm secures into the strike for a snug and secure closure. These parts are engineered for reliability and must match your window's specific design to work properly.
Common Use Cases
Replacement keepers and strikes are needed when original hardware is worn, damaged, or missing, leading to reduced security or operational issues. Window installers, property managers, and maintenance professionals often replace these parts to restore window function in homes, apartments, schools, and commercial buildings. Our collection includes models for:
- Single and double-hung sash windows (e.g., sash lock keeper, 1-3/8 in. screw hole).
- Casement windows, with right-hand or left-hand keepers (see right-hand keeper or left-hand keeper).
- Awning windows, often utilizing multi-point keepers like the Maxim keeper.
Tips for Replacement & Installation
Accurate identification of your window's existing keeper or strike is key. Match measurements such as screw hole spacing and overall dimensions to ensure proper fit. Always use genuine replacement parts,like those from AmesburyTruth,to maintain warranty coverage and hardware reliability. For installation, most keepers mount directly to the frame or sash with screws, and clear instructions are often included. Stainless steel and E-Gard finishes are available to resist corrosion in high-moisture environments.
