Thanks for posting. Before I can confirm what Series channel balance you have, I'll have to figure out what bottom shoe you have. Please look at the measurements for our 15-001 and 15-002 bottom shoes and note their depths. As you can see, they are 1-1/8" deep and 1" deep, respectively. Which measurement more closely resembles your own shoe?
Also, can you confirm the length of your metal channel? Our channels usually end on the inch. Has yours been cut down at all? |

Thank you for your patience in this matter. First, let me address the take-out-clip issue.
This type of balance would not need a take-out-clip. In fact, it's built into the window. Please see the lower-right-hand picture in your original post. That fold sticking up out of the window jamb serves the same purpose as a take-out-clip would. The square holes in the upper-right-hand picture are simply where the balance's hook locks in. Now, as for the balance itself--typically, our balance channel lengths end on the inch, not the 5/8". Therefore, yours may have to be custom made. Before we get started with that, though, I just need you to confirm that your window sash weight is 12 pounds. |

Thank you. To begin, please take a look at this Custom Channel Balance Order Form that I have started for you and fill out the rest of the information. One of our representatives will contact you shortly thereafter.
