What length? 24" or 25"?

My measurement of the metal channel comes to just a hair over 24 1/2". Maybe 24 5/8". So not sure if I need 24 or 25"?

What you have here is a special type of "extended travel" channel balance. We can supply it but it has to be a custom order since they aren't stock. These are designed to come in 24-5/8" lengths, so your measurement was accurate.

Before we go any further, can you just tell me how many you needed? Once I know that, I will email you a purchase link and price quote that you can use to place an order on our site.

I was planning on replacing both. So I will be ordering 2. Thanks!

I need some replacement balancers for some Millard windows. Similar to above they are the extended travel versions. One measures 25-5/8" and the other 31-5/8". Can I get a quote on these? One of each size. Is is it possible to use the next size up non-extended travel balancers? Thanks!

Thanks for reaching out to us. As this is a custom order, we will require photos of your original balance so that we may proceed. Please make sure your photos show the same information as those provided above: we have to see the top fitting, bottom fitting, stamp, and the metal hook at the end of the cord.  I will also need the quantity for each size.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to use one of our stock balances to replace this. It has to be the same style as what you have now.
