Solid Brass Storm or Screen Door or Window Insert Fastener - Multiple Finishes Available
To Fasten Storm Door or Window Inserts
The Model SCF64 is a solid brass cam fastener designed for use on wood combination storm and screen doors or any application requiring retention of a panel that will be seasonally removed. It should be noted that the SCF64 will function best holding a panel against a wood stop or rebate. It is not appropriate for applications subjected to frequent use, as the brass locking blade could cause excessive wear on the wood surface against which it bears.
Installation of the SCF64 requires boring a 1/2” X 7/8” deep hole into which the fastener body is later pressed. This hole is normally bored into the frame at a 1/2” backset from the edge. A 5/64” X 1” deep kerf (see note below) is milled into the edge of the frame to receive the locking blade. This kerf may be located 1/2”-3/4” on center from the face of the frame, depending on the millwork detail. A similar kerf should be milled into the edge of the panel, 5/64” X 1/2” deep, to receive the end of the locking blade when it is rotated into position. This kerf should be located so that the panel will be held firmly against the wood stop or rebate.
