It has a hook and a mortice plate for fixing. To maintain the finish we recommend wiping the item with a micro-fibre cloth to remove dirt deposits and polishing with a good quality metal polish. The Cardea Polished Nickel Rat Tail Weatherseal Casement Fastener has a curled tail design on the end of the handle that will give a uniquely timeless look and create a decorative finishing touch on windows. There are more traditional finishes of dark bronze, unlacquered brass and white bronze collections available in our Cardea Buy by Brand Category. The Hook Plate is for use on 'flush' casement windows, where it is not possible to use the frame for the fastener to hold the window closed. These finishes may be better suited to rustic design themes, whether it's in a classic cottage, a country style kitchen, traditionally designed manor homes and much more. The Casement Fastener is suitable for use with Weatherseal windows. The simple design skillfully combines traditional shapes and styles with a bright and reflective polished nickel finish. The application of a light wax after cleaning can be beneficial but is not essential. Supplied by UK based manufacturer, Cardea who have over 30 years of experience retailing Architectural Ironmongery that is well-crafted with fair prices. The Cardea Polished Nickel finish is a solid brass plating and will generally require little maintenance as nickel is a relatively slow ageing metal. There are matching Cardea Polished Nickel Rat Tail Casement Stays in related products below. Their Polished Nickel Collection includes cupboard knobs and handles, window fittings and other door ironmongery for a fully incorporated look around the home. Supplied in SINGLES with screw fixings. We do NOT recommend the use of liquid polishes that will leave a residue. The Mortice Plate is the most common type of plate, used on standard casement windows where the fastener 'tongue' can latch into the frame.
