Window Hardware Information
This is an area where very small details can make a very big difference. Every piece of hardware used for Simonton windows is designed for serious long-lasting performance. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun and express yourself. Whether you choose the gleaming richness of brass hardware, the understated simplicity of color-matched hardware, or any of our other finishes, you’re assured of legendary Simonton quality day in and day out.
Locks
Color-matched cam locks are standard on all windows. For an upscale look, optional brass hardware can be selected.
Lift Rails/Pull Stiles
Operable windows feature color-coordinated, easy-to-use lift rails (on hung windows) and pull stiles (on slider windows) that are extruded into the sash for maximum durability over time.
Crank Handles
Casement windows feature smoothly operating crank handles, allowing the sash to be open to a full 90 degrees.* Crank handles are color-coordinated for an attractive, uniform appearance. Optional folding crank handle is also available.
*Sash on Casements that are 17" or less in width only open to 45 degrees.
