Millard balancer

Home Owner from Washington
My Milgard balancer is stamped 26 9. It is 27" long 9/16 wide and 58" deep. The bottom block is 15/16 wide and 1" deep. What balancer do I need to order? Thank you

Hi there! I'm very confident we can supply this balance for you, but before I recommend anything I will need a clear photo of the top nylon fitting. Let me know if that will be possible!

Perfect, thank you kindly. Based on what I see here, you have either our S380-27 or S385-27, depending on the depth of the bottom shoe. That's the only difference between them. I recommend measuring your shoe and referring to our dimensions to confirm the best match.

Please note that you will also need to weigh your sash on a scale to confirm which of our stamp options will work. Your old balance used a different kind of rating system so this will be necessary, but we have a chart on each balance page that tells you exactly how much weight each stamp supports.
