Window Vent Stops for Secure, Controlled Ventilation | Ashland Parts by AmesburyTruth

Window vent stops, also known as sash vent stops or ventilation locks, are essential components that let you control the opening width of your window. By restricting how far your sash can slide, a vent stop provides reliable ventilation while helping to prevent accidental falls and unwanted entry. Homeowners and professionals alike rely on these stops to maintain a safer and more comfortable indoor environment.

Key Uses for Window Vent Stops

Vent stops are most often used in residential and light commercial applications where controlled airflow and window security are top priorities. Installing a sash vent stop or window vent lock lets you keep windows partially open for ventilation,without fully unlocking them. This is especially valuable for ground-floor windows or homes with children, as it helps deter break-ins while reducing the risk of accidental falls.
