Still haven't seen a suitable solution for securing a sliding cab window. A solid rod back to the front frame simply causes an issue with condensation not draining away. Any thoughts.

N&B use the same type of catch as Hymer but it has a lock in it, more of a latch than a lock. Been thinking of getting one for my van.

May not be locks but do increase strength & security & have ones for a couple of types of sliding windows

I’ve made a stop out of aluminium angle, I cut and bent the ends to give more purchase on the glass. That let the water still drain away.
