We may be able to help, but I will need a bit more information. Can you show me a picture of the s hoe attached at the end of the balance cord? Thank you!

Thank you. Take a look at our Series 751 ribbed channel balance, this appears to be a good match.

the shoes on the balances i received do not lock into the channels correctly - is there anything we can do to amend these ones?

Can you tell me exactly what the problem is? Did you see our installation video? This may help you install it.

The metal portion of the shoe does not lay flat when locked downside to part of the side channel having a rib that gets in the way of the metal piece. The old shoe had a cut out to allow it to close over the rib on the side

I'm sorry, but I've never heard of this problem. I'm not sure what could be causing it. Could you show me a picture of what it is you're describing?
