United Windows Pivot Shoe

Home Owner from Walllkill, NY
I have tow United Windows 5500 series double hung windows. All the pivot shoes are cracked preventing the windows from moving up and down freely. Can you please help me find the replacement pivot shoes and how to replace them.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello there, Tony.

I'm afraid your pivot shoe is too obscured by the track. In order to help, we will need to see it removed from the window along with the written-out thickness and width. In the meantime, take a look at the video below which will show you how to remove your hardware using the cut-out method.

Thanks for getting back to me, Tony! I recommend our 15-216 pivot shoe if that's all you need. Look this part over and let me know if you have any questions! 

If you end up needing the balance, just let us know! Your balance configuration isn't something we stock but we can still help via custom order. I would just need to know the length of the metal channel and the stamp printed on the metal channel.
