This sturdy, barrel style transom latch is made of heavy-duty cast brass. The shaft is spring-loaded for vertical installation and keeps the window tightly fastened. A lacquered finish preserves the brilliant shine.
This latch is typically installed at the top of the window sash and operated with a pull chain or pole-mounted transom hook (use transom chains to keep the sash from falling open). The surface mounted keeper requires a flat area on the window frame at least 3/4" in height. If the moulding surrounding the window intrudes in this area, it may need to be notched to accommodate the keeper.
Latch Base: 2 1/4" W x 2 3/8" H. Keeper: 2 1/4" W x 3/4" H.
Transom Window: Small window near the ceiling often above a door or other window that is typically hinged at the bottom and opens in. Learn about hardware >
