FAQs

What material are the sash jammers made of?

The sash jammers are constructed from strong cast zinc alloy with a durable white powder-coated finish.

Do I need a professional to install these locks?

No, installation is designed to be simple and can typically be done by the user with basic tools in a few minutes.

Can these locks be used on any type of window?

They are specifically designed for uPVC/PVC windows and doors that open inwards or outwards. They may not be suitable for other materials like wood or metal.

How many locks are included in a set?

Each set includes 4 packs of Sash Jammers, along with the necessary fixing screws, cover caps, and keys.

Are these locks considered primary security or additional security?

These sash jammers are designed to provide *additional* security and are best used in conjunction with your existing primary window and door locks.

What is the finish of the sash jammers?

They have a white powder-coated finish, designed to blend with most white uPVC window and door frames.

Can these locks be used on doors as well as windows?

Yes, they are suitable for both uPVC doors and windows that open inwards or outwards, such as room doors, bathroom doors, or balcony doors.

Troubleshooting

Lock does not engage properly

Ensure the window or door is fully closed and the frame is not warped. Check that the sash jammer is securely screwed to the frame and that the arm is making firm contact with the sash. Adjust the position slightly if needed.

Screws do not tighten firmly

If screwing into soft uPVC, consider using wall plugs designed for plastic or ensure pilot holes are appropriately sized. Do not overtighten, which can strip the plastic.

Key is difficult to turn

Check for any obstructions. Ensure the sash jammer is in the fully unlocked position. A tiny application of graphite powder (lock lubricant) may help, but avoid oil-based lubricants.

Corrosion or discoloration on the surface

While designed to be corrosion-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh elements might cause minor surface changes. Clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no harsh chemicals were used.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds significant extra security to vulnerable windows and doors.
  • Durable zinc alloy construction ensures longevity.
  • Simple to install and operate, even for non-technical users.
  • Key locking provides a higher level of security and control.
  • Versatile use on various types of inward and outward opening uPVC doors and windows.
  • Aesthetically pleasing white finish complements most window frames.

Cons

  • Primarily an *additional* security measure, not a standalone primary lock.
  • Effectiveness relies on proper installation and the integrity of the window/door frame.
  • May not be suitable for all window/door types, particularly older or non-uPVC frames.
  • Requires keeping track of the small keys for operation.
  • The white finish might not match all decor styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the desired location on your uPVC window or door frame where the sash jammer will be fitted.
  2. Position the sash jammer so that the arm can brace firmly against the window or door sash when locked.
  3. Mark the screw hole positions on the frame.
  4. Drill pilot holes if necessary, especially in harder UPVC.
  5. Secure the sash jammer to the frame using the provided screws.
  6. Test the lock by twisting the arm to engage it against the sash and then disengaging it.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for use on uPVC/PVC doors and windows that open inwards or outwards.
  • Ensure there is sufficient space for the jammer arm to brace against the sash when closed.
  • Not recommended for wooden or metal frames, or for windows/doors that open outwards from the property.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents which could damage the powder coating.
  • Periodically check that screws remain tight and the locking mechanism operates smoothly. A small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied if needed.
