My present shoes measure 1 inch wide. They are from BetterBilt Aluminum windows. The other dimensions are the same as your 15-015

Thanks for contacting us. If your shoe is only 1" wide, then there may be other differences from the 15-015 that aren't readily apparent. I'd like to see a photo of your shoe out of the window, that will be a huge help.

OK. There is an ear on the top of one side, so dimensions are reversed for that. Non ear side is 2" long.

These are BetterBilt aluminum windows installed in 2004.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks, JD! I see a big difference right away. The hole in your cam that accepts the pivot shoe has a very specific shape. Rather than a square with a peg sticking into it like the 15-015, it's a square with three pegs sticking into it; one from the top and then two from the bottom corners.

With that in mind, in addition to the size of the housing, I recommend our 15-211. I think you'll agree that this is a good match.
