Loewen Window parts

Question

Hi
I'm hoping you can help. I have a customer with Loewen (Canadian made) windows all impact rated (beach home)
The are channel balance type with 1/2" w x 3/8" deep (hard to measure)
20 - 25" long (see stamp) balances (stamp is 26)
36 - balances 24" (24" stamp)
12 balances 27" (stamp is 28)
The pivot shoes are destroyed on all of them and it was hard to see what they look like. I hope this is enough information.
Also need pivot bars and weatherstrip (see pic)

Hello,

We'd be happy to help but we would need to start by seeing photos of your balance assembly fully removed from the window to determine if you could use the stock S751 channel balances or if they would need to be custom-made. I would also recommend double-checking the length of the balance channels since the length should be equal to or longer than the stamp code.

How to measure the length of the Series 751 channel balance.

I see that the stamp code in your photo says 26XHD, which would generally correspond to our 26HD strength options. We'd need to know the rest of the stamps for your other two balance lengths to determine the corresponding strength options.

If you also need pivot bars, we would need to see an intact version of yours removed from one of the windows to compare to our inventory.

As for the weatherstripping, take a look and compare the dimensions of the 58-053 and 58-114 kerfed bubble seals to yours. Thank you!
