The Asec Sash Jamb is a secondary security device designed to reinforce uPVC windows and doors against forced entry. It functions by mounting a base plate to the frame, with a pivoting arm that swings across the sash to physically block it from being opened. This simple yet effective mechanism provides essential reinforcement, particularly in vulnerable ground-floor locations.

This product is suitable for a wide range of applications, including residential properties and commercial units. It can be fitted to both inward and outward opening windows and doors, making it a versatile choice for various installation scenarios. It is frequently used as a retro-fit security upgrade for existing uPVC units that may require additional protection beyond the primary locking system.

Key Applications

  • Secondary security for patio doors and residential entrance doors.
  • Reinforcement for uPVC window frames in high-risk areas.
  • Retro-fitting to older frames to improve resistance against prying and forced leverage.

The device is designed for ease of use and straightforward installation, requiring only basic tools to secure it to the profile. Its presence provides peace of mind by ensuring that the sash remains securely fixed to the frame even if the main handle or lock is bypassed.
