Sash locks and keepers are essential components for windows that slide open and closed,most commonly double hung or single hung window designs. The sash lock is a mechanical latch that secures the window sash shut, while the keeper (sometimes called a catch or strike) is the fixed part that the lock engages with. Together, these parts provide vital security, help with airtight sealing, and prevent unwanted drafts or water infiltration. Many window manufacturers,including Andersen, Pella, and others,use this lock and keeper system, with AmesburyTruth being a leading brand trusted across North America for durable and precisely engineered window hardware.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Compatible with most single hung and double hung window systems, in vinyl, wood, or aluminum frames using the cam lock and keeper method.
  • Made from high-pressure die-cast zinc or steel for exceptional strength, rust resistance, and long service life.
  • Available in a range of finishes and colors to match existing hardware,including E-Gard coating for enhanced corrosion protection.
  • Easy to install with common hand tools; replacement is straightforward for both professionals and DIYers.
  • Authentic AmesburyTruth sash locks and keepers guarantee fit, operation, and longevity.

Common Use Cases

These locks and keepers are ideal for window repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, or replacing worn, broken, or corroded components on residential and commercial windows. If your window is rattling, won't lock properly, or fails basic security checks, replacing a faulty sash lock or keeper can quickly restore safe, reliable operation. This is especially important for property managers or anyone preparing a property for sale or rental.

Our sash lock and keeper options cover a wide range of models, handings, and screw hole spacings to match the original hardware. For example, you can find a recessed left hand sash lock, an off-center right hand model, or a sash lock for double or single hung windows in beige finish.

Replacement and Installation Tips

To ensure correct fitment when replacing a sash lock or keeper:

  • Carefully measure screw hole spacing and overall dimensions of your existing hardware before ordering.
  • Match the hand (left or right) to your window's opening direction.
  • Retain your original screws if possible,many replacement keepers and locks do not include new fasteners.

Most installations require only a Phillips screwdriver. Simply remove the old lock and keeper, align the new hardware in the same orientation, and fasten securely. Avoid overtightening to prevent stripping screws or damaging the window frame. For specific finishes or corrosion-resistant needs, consider options like the keeper with E-gard finish for enhanced durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are sash locks and keepers universal?
    While many locks and keepers share similar designs, it is important to match screw hole spacing, hand, and style to your window for proper fit and function. If unsure, compare measurements carefully or contact us for guidance.
  • What is the difference between a cam action sash lock and a sweep lock?
    Both are types of sash locks. Cam action models use a rotating cam for secure engagement, while sweep locks use a lever mechanism. Both styles are available in this collection.
  • Can I replace just the keeper or just the lock?
    Yes, you can replace either part individually,as long as the new keeper or sash lock matches your window's dimensions and style. For example, you can order a replacement keeper in beige or a Truth Trimline sweep lock if only one piece is damaged.
  • Which windows are compatible?
    These AmesburyTruth sash locks and keepers work with many brands and models, including Andersen window latch replacement and other industry-leading window systems. Always confirm measurements before purchasing.
