Hello,
I need some help identifying and ordering the correct Milgard casement window hinge. As seen from one photo, a part of the lower hinge (the 'crossbar') is missing. The lower part that is mounted to the actual window frame is 10" long, Window is smaller, less than 18"x24"
I understand I will need to replace both top and bottom entire 'hinge' (even though I'd refer it more to a 'slider'). I just need to know which one.
Milgard support was from from helpful but only sent me here. hopefully you can guide here based on photos (it's not my house and I am not currently at house either for more detailed measurements).
And finally, what would be leadtime to get this to the Seattle area?
Thank you!

Hello,
Take a look at the 36-048 2-bar hinge set. This is a versatile option as long as the 10" base matches yours. If you decide to move forward with an order, you'll be given multiple shipping options to choose from at checkout. Thanks for posting!

Thank you!!!!
I think we have identified the right part then. Had a few discussions here, but your measurements confirm a match!
Based on photos submitted, seems the sash mounted small bracket has the operator arm underneath it, and I assume that the arm (only a shorter one that goes to the right) will just snap down if pryed loose (it does not have a clip like in the video).
Sadly see that you're out of stock at the moment though.

Some hinges have an arm that snaps onto the base, while ours uses a detach clip. The difference in style shouldn't be a problem since you'll be replacing both hinges at the same time. You're also welcome to sign up for the suto-notify option on the 36-048 product page to receive an email once they're available for purchase.
