Clashes and encounters for fixtures

Strike plates, or strike plates, are the small metal plates fixed to the frame where the mushroom heads and strike bolts of the hardware engage when you close the window. A worn or poorly installed strike plate is the most common cause of windows that are difficult to close, do not stay shut, or let in drafts. In this category you will find Maico strike plates and strike plates for wood, PVC, and aluminum.

Types of strike plates

The catalog includes mushroom strike plates, single and double strike plates, also for arched and trapezoidal windows, and strike bolts, also with positioning pin or adjustable pressure. You will also find additional tilt and scissor strike plates, strike plates that support the sash during closing to prevent it from dropping, those for deadbolts, opening limiters and closing controls, and lifting wedge strike plates.

How to choose the right strike plate

There are specific versions for wood, PVC, and aluminum, so start with the frame material. Then check the rebate and gap, for example, 18 mm plain rebate, 9 or 13 mm gap or A4 system, and the side, because many strike plates are right- or left-handed. The safest way to find the exact replacement remains the Maico code, which we include in the title of each product.

To complete the repair, you will also find espagnolette, scissor hinges, and the rest of the tilt-and-turn sash hardware.
