Product Information
Full details
The ASelected Sash Jammers are essential for homeowners looking to bolster their security on UPVC, PVC, and wooden doors and windows. Designed for those who want an affordable yet effective deterrent against unauthorized entry, these jammers offer a straightforward installation process that provides immediate peace of mind. While they are highly effective at restricting forced movement of windows and doors, it is important to note that they are a secondary security measure and should not replace your primary locking systems.

FAQs
Can these be used on outward opening windows?
Yes, the ASelected Sash Jammers are designed to work with both inward and outward opening applications.
Does the pack include screws?
Yes, each 10-pack includes all necessary fixing screws, cap covers, and buttons.
Will these work on metal frames?
These are primarily designed for UPVC, PVC, and wood. They may not be suitable for heavy-duty metal frames without specialized drilling bits.
How many jammers should I use per window?
For most standard-sized windows, one to two jammers are typically sufficient to provide adequate security.
Are these locks weather-resistant?
They feature a durable powder-coated finish suitable for interior use, but excessive moisture exposure over years may eventually affect the finish.
Troubleshooting
The jammer arm feels loose or wobbly
Tighten the main fixing screw that holds the arm in place, but ensure it is not overtightened so that it can still pivot.
Difficulty closing the window with the jammer installed
Check the positioning of the jammer. It may be mounted too close to the sash, preventing a flush seal. Adjust the placement slightly further away.
Screw holes are stripped
Use a slightly larger screw or a wall anchor if the material permits to ensure a secure grip back into the frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Positioning: Determine the optimal placement on the window or door frame where the jammer arm can swing over the sash to block movement.
- Marking: Use a pencil to mark the screw holes onto the frame. Ensure the surface is clean and level.
- Drilling: Carefully drill pilot holes if necessary to avoid splitting wooden frames, or use provided screws directly if the material allows.
- Mounting: Secure the jammer using the provided screws and snap on the cap covers to hide the screw heads for a sleek look.
- Maintenance: Regularly check that the screws remain tight and that the swinging arm moves freely. Periodically wipe the units with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris, ensuring the powder coating remains intact.
