Hi. I've attached pics of bottom of window with missing pivot bar pins. I also think the housing area for the pins is missing (but not sure). I believe the pivot bar was 26-297. Based on pics is there another bar that would work?

Hello,

Unfortunately, it's impossible for us to say with any certainty what pivot bars the manufacturer originally used in their windows. Is there another window in the house with intact pivot bars that you could remove and show us a picture of? Thank you.

Hello,

Unfortunately, I don't believe we can help with these replacements. The 26-297 does not work with a cover and usually screws directly into the bottom of the sash. It looks like you need part of the sash replaced, which is specific to the manufacturer and we can not supply.

As for your lock, take a look at our 90-005 sash lock. Thank you!

Hello. Thank you for your response. Do you carry or know where I can purchase the vinyl covering strip that encloses the bottom of the sash and houses the pivot bar, as well as the screws for the 26-297 to attach it? Pics are of each side of bottom of same window. Measures at least 25 1/4" x 1 1/4". Also, do yo carry replacement lock for USS Alside (3" with 2 1/4" hole-to-hole)? Pic attached.

Ok. Thank you. What material are the locks made of?

Our 90-005 is made of metal die cast.
