Hi

Jeld-Wen referred me to you, as they no longer carry parts for the older Windowmaster vinyl windows.

I am looking for the plastic/vinyl piece that is inserted into the oblong hole in the vinyl window frame

Thanks,

-avi

Hi Avi. We used to carry a recessed window lift like this, but it was discontinued some years ago and is no longer available. As a substitute, consider our 26-116. You would need to drill holes to mount this lift. Take a look at the diagram below and see if you'd have the room to drill these holes on either side of the old cutout. As always when drilling new holes on a sash, take very great care to not contact the glass. Let me know what you think.
