Hi Paul,
Thanks for the Pivot Shoe info. Prior to ordering the pivot shoes, should I also replace the spiral balance? I do have some other vinyl windows that are hard to open/close. What would be the remedy for this problem?
Thanks again for your advise,
Frank
Thanks I will test the spiral balance tension.
But what would cause my other windows to become hard to open/close? Is this a spiral tension adjustment problem or do they require some type of lubrication?
It certainly could be either, or even both! Adjusting balance tension and lubricating the channels are both quick projects and we always recommend exhausting these first before considering purchasing new hardware.
