FAQs
How does the locking casement stay pin work?
It replaces a standard stay pin. When the casement window is closed, you use the provided key to screw down the locking section of the pin, immobilizing the stay and securing the window.

This product has a Polished Brass finish.
What are the dimensions of the pin?
The dimensions are 41mm x 17mm.

How many keys are supplied with the pin?
The product is supplied with one key.
What warranty does this product come with?
It comes with a 10-year mechanical guarantee.
Can I use this lock on a window that is partially open?
No, the locking mechanism only engages when the casement stay is in the fully closed position.
Troubleshooting
Pin is difficult to screw down
Ensure the casement stay is fully closed and that there are no obstructions in the pinhole. Check that the correct key is being used.
Key will not turn to lock
Verify that the stay is completely closed. The locking mechanism only engages when the stay is in its fully closed position.
Locking mechanism feels stiff
Gently clean the keyhole and the pin assembly with a dry, soft brush. A very small amount of graphite lubricant (not oil) can be applied if the stiffness persists, but use sparingly.
