Truth Hardware / EntryGard Window & Door Replacement Parts
Truth Hardware (also known as EntryGard) has been one of the most widely used window and door hardware manufacturers since the 1950s. If your casement or awning window is hard to open, won’t close properly, or the crank handle spins without moving the sash, there’s a strong chance your operator or hinge was made by Truth.
