Introduction
Corner keys are primarily used for putting up various structural
components like frame and sash section for a window pane. They are fixed
to the window frame by means of an adhesive. The corner keys along with
the added adhesive sealant help keeping the window unit square, solid
and weather-tight.
Corner keys are mounted on the right and left corner of the window top.
They work by a spring action. Right and left top corner keys and spring
loaded bottom latches are available for vertical sliding interior storm
windows.
