Replacement balance (?) for GA Series 5000

Contractor from Beaufort SC
I need replacement parts for the above- the side rails/balances are either broken or rusted out....windows are hard to slide open/close and some cannot even open. Need new "feet" and the whole rail system.

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out! There is a chance we may be able to provide you with a recommendation for these balances. I'll need to see a them removed from the window to identify the correct replacements.

I'll need to see photos of the top and bottom attachments on the balance as well as any that are in the window channel. Please also confirm the stamp from the channel.

Feel free to reach out with any other questions you might have.

Thanks for the additional photos. Your pivot shoe reminds me of the 15-173 Pivot Shoe. This is commonly used with the Series 600 Spiral Balance. Be sure double check that you balance diameter is 5/8" to confirm that it is the correct series. To select the correct spiral, you'll need to measurement length of the tube.

Your balance does not have a tip color so you will need to obtain the exact weight of the sash to determine which option to select for your replacements. There is a chart below the product description that lists the weight range each color option will support.
