Hi I need to order replacement channel balances. I've attached photos. The window weights 7.8kg. The metal part of the balance is 635mm long, and 15mm wide and deep.

I need to order 7 pairs of these.

Thanks

John

Hello,

You only showed the rear of the balance channel and not the front side, but we were able to discern the manufacturer of your window. You have a Weathervane window that dissolved in 2001. The top nylon sash guide has been replaced with a metal bracket, our 18-065

This isn't a stock balance so this will have to be a custom order. Your custom 25" channel balance will need the 19-038 top and 15-193 bottom fitting attached. The spring weight for a 17.2 lbs. sash will be (2430). Can you confirm the stamp on your metal channel? 

I just want to confirm the exact quantity of balances that you'll need before we proceed. You said you needed 7 pairs, so that would be a total of 14 balances. Can you confirm this for us? 

Thank you!

Sorry for the delayed response - I lost the link for this page. I can confirm that I need 7 pairs - so 14 balances. I've added a photo for the other side of the balance. The stamp shows B.S.I. 24 C

Can you tell me what the estimated cost is for the custom order?

Thanks

John

Thanks so much for confirming that for us, John! I've just emailed you a custom balance purchase link and price quote for (14) of these balances that you can use to place an order on our site. Just don't forget to add the 18-065 top sash guide to your cart! If you have any questions just let us know.
