New, Sleek CertaLock™ Sash Lock Helps Ensure Secure, Automatic Lock on CertainTeed Vinyl Windows

(HIT) - The new CertaLock™ Sash Lock by CertainTeed Corporation helps provide peace of mind with its automatic lock technology. Available as an option on CertainTeed Insulate Series and popular styles of CertainTeed Insulate Slimline Series vinyl windows, the sleek, self-latching hardware helps ensure a safe, secure window.

CertaLock is engineered for ergonomic and foolproof performance. Its spring-loaded design makes it easy to unlock the sash with the touch of one finger, and the lock automatically shuts tight when the sash is pulled to the closed position. With a sleek, minimal design and close color match, CertaLock blends beautifully into the window profile for a streamlined look.

"CertaLock was created to help people feel more secure at home," says Maria McDonagh-Forde, Marketing Communications Manager for CertainTeed’s Window Group. "The self-latching system is designed to automatically lock when the windows are shut. It’s a design that is simple, safe and sleek."

The hardware’s automatic locking system meets or exceeds the toughest forced entry codes in the United States. Made of solid metal with a durable coating, CertaLock is resistant to chipping, scratching and corrosion. All Insulate Series windows are backed by a lifetime limited warranty with 20-year transferability that protects the homeowner against manufacturing defects for as long as they own their home warranty. For more details, see warranty where product is sold.

More than 18 million CertainTeed windows have been installed since 1979. Year after year, the windows have been chosen as the top vinyl windows in the country in surveys of building professionals.
