Ornate window sash locks are a great way to add detail and elegance to any single or double hung sash window in your home. Available in a wide variety of designs and finishes, an ornate window sash lock can be a great way to introduce or further incorporate a common theme throughout your home decorating. Sash locks increase the security of your home and can transform the entire look of your windows.
Sash locks are an important component in a home with sash windows because they ensure that your windows can’t be opened from the outside. The wide range of designs and patterns available for sash locks means that you can find locks to match any décor. Window sash locks are typically brass, zinc, steel or vinyl and come in many finishes including Polished Brass, Antique Brass and Oil Rubbed Bronze. Depending on the type of lock you prefer sash locks are available in both keyless and keyed styles. Note: if keyed window sash locks are installed it makes using the window as an exit during an emergency much more difficult.
Ornate sash locks are produced today – allowing you to incorporate their patterns into your windows. Sash locks are simple to install but be sure to follow a few simple steps. First, select a style of sash lock that coordinate with your existing window hardware. If you are planning to replace all the hardware in your window, make sure to select styles that complement each other. By using solid brass hardware throughout your home it will tie the look together for you. Second, replace older and worn exterior window hardware as well to further create a common theme both inside and outside your home.
Ornate sash locks are readily available online as well as in many home decorating catalogs. Search for solid brass construction for added strength and durability and be sure to ask questions. When you work with brass hardware you can be sure that different shapes and combinations will work together nicely. These window sash locks are available online through LookInTheAttic & Company and they offer free design assistance and help.
