Can you replace a latch on a window?

The broken sash latches can probably be replaced. There are several types of latches, but in most cases it’s possible to restore the latching action by installing simple surface-mounted latches (your windows might already have this type). The latches are located at the top corners of each sash, one latch on each side.

How do you measure a tilt latch?

When measuring, measure from the center of one hole to the center of the other, this is how the measurements in our parts diagrams are displayed. This measurement is one of the most important. This will ensure that your replacement tilt latch matches with the existing holes already drilled into your sash.
