Locks & Latches

Sash locks, deadbolts, rim locks, and gate locks represent a diverse array of locking mechanisms, each tailored to specific security needs in different contexts. Sash locks are commonly found in windows and doors, featuring a latch and a bolt to secure the opening. Deadbolts, renowned for their sturdiness, are often installed in residential doors to provide an additional layer of security, as they extend deep into the door frame. Rim locks, usually surface-mounted on doors, combine a latch and a surface-mounted lock for simplicity and effectiveness. Gate locks, designed for outdoor gates and fences, offer robust protection with features like key-operated or combination mechanisms. The variety in these locks reflects the nuanced requirements of securing various entry points, from windows and doors to gates, showcasing the adaptability and innovation in the field of security hardware.
