FAQs
What is a sashlock rebate kit used for?
A rebate kit is used to allow a sash lock's faceplate to sit flush within the rebate of a door frame, providing a neater and more integrated finish for the lock installation.
Is this kit suitable for all types of sash locks?
This specific ERA rebate kit is designed for Fortress Sash Locks. Compatibility with other brands should be carefully checked based on dimensions.
What does the 0.5" dimension refer to?
The 0.5" dimension refers to the width of the rebate that the kit is designed to fit into and accommodate.
Can this kit be used on exterior doors?
While primarily for aesthetics, its durability can support use on exterior doors, provided the sash lock itself is also rated for exterior use and properly installed.
How do I clean the satin finish?
Clean the satin finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or discolor the surface.
What is the pack quantity?
The pack quantity is 1, meaning you receive one rebate kit per purchase.
Troubleshooting
Lock does not sit flush
Ensure the recess cut into the door frame is deep and wide enough to fully accommodate both the rebate kit and the lock faceplate. Double-check measurements.
Rebate kit does not fit snugly
Verify that you are using the correct size rebate kit (0.5") for your specific Fortress Sash Lock and door frame rebate. Minor adjustments to the recess may be needed.
Satin finish appears damaged
Do not use abrasive cleaners. Clean gently with a damp cloth. If damage is significant, replacement may be necessary.
