Casement window strikes and awning keepers are vital components of modern window locking systems. Their main function is to act as the receiving plate for locking handles, allowing casement or awning windows to latch securely when closed. These parts are engineered for precise alignment, helping to prevent drafts and water infiltration while also supporting the overall integrity of the window. Whether you're addressing a worn-out keeper, a misaligned strike, or upgrading window hardware for smoother operation, selecting the right replacement is essential for both security and performance.

What Are Strikes and Keepers?

Strikes and keepers are the fixed metal or plastic parts mounted to the window frame that interact with the movable lock or latch on the sash. In casement and awning window systems, the locking handle pulls the sash tightly against the strike or keeper, creating a snug closure. Commonly used in residential, commercial, and institutional settings, these components are specifically shaped for each operator and window style, ensuring a custom fit and proper locking action. For example, a stainless steel keeper offers durability for coastal or high-humidity environments, while vinyl window strikes like this model for vinyl windows match the frame material and appearance.
