Hillman Builders Hardware 851202 Sash Lock Nickel

Product Description

The HILLMAN BUILDERS HARDWARE 851202 is a cam-style sash lock designed for double-hung windows. It secures the meeting rail of upper and lower sash panels to prevent unwanted opening and reduce air infiltration. Finished in nickel, this lock blends with standard window hardware in both new construction and replacement applications. The compact form factor fits standard sash rail profiles and installs with basic hand tools. Window installers, general contractors, and finish carpenters are the typical trades handling this fitting.

The 851202 sash lock is suited for residential double-hung window installations where a cam-action meeting-rail latch is required. It works in new-build framing as well as window retrofit projects. The nickel finish coordinates with other nickel window and door hardware in a home. Sold individually, it is a direct replacement for worn or damaged sash locks on existing window units.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement sash lock for standard double-hung residential windows requiring a cam-action meeting-rail latch in a nickel finish.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by window installers, general contractors, or finish carpenters. Close and align both window sashes fully at the meeting rail before marking and drilling pilot holes to avoid misalignment. Secure all mounting fasteners snugly but do not overtighten into the sash rail material, as excess force can crack painted or vinyl sash frames. Verify cam engagement and smooth lock operation before completing the installation.
