Operator and Hinge

Question

What operator goes with the 36-048 top hinge the best?.......I have an old norco casement window and having a hard time finding compatible replacement parts. I know the best approach is to replace both the upper and lower hinges, even though only of the hinges is broke.......Thank You.

Hey there,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I'm sorry to say we would not be able to determine the correct casement operator based on the hinge. They are two separately functioning parts and, at times, be made by different manufacturers. I'll need to see photos of your existing window operators to identify the correct replacements.

When replacing the hinges, it is best to replace both the top and bottom hinges to ensure they would be a match. The 36-048 2-Bar Hinge Set may not be a direct replacement for your existing hinges.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have in the meantime.
