What kind of replacement parts for this window?
Hello! I recommend our 39-348 to start, but this is more of an educated guess. I can't say for sure without seeing yours out of the window, as there are a few important details that are obstructed. That said I think the 39-348 is a very promising candidate. Look it over and let me know what you think.
I have no idea who might have made your window, unfortunately. However the 39-348 has been used on a ton of different brands. It's not made to work for just one window.
It could be either possibility, but I can't really judge from here. You'll have to play around with it.
Does the corkscrew-shaped worm gear come out when you turn the handle? If so, the gears are stripped out and you need a new operator.
If the worm gear doesn't come out, then grab a handle from another operator and try it out on yours. If it works, then you know the handle is the problem. If it doesn't, then it's the operator.
It was my pleasure! Thank you for your business, it means a lot. Please let us know if you need any help.
I think the mechanism you sent will work for some of my windows, but some of the windows have this kind of mechanism. Each of the 4 arms is about 6 and 1/2 inches. The window itself is 25 and 1/2 inches wide.
Do you have a match for that window?
Ah, I see. That looks like our 39-140. This has the same kind of "accordion" style arms as the one you're showing here.
Do you also have Anderson parts? I discovered that all the windows in the 1974 addition to my house were indeed Anderson windows. I'm looking for a tiny part that glides on the rod. One of them has fallen off, so the window doesn't function properly. I don't even know what it is called and if you can order these part separately from whatever they are attached to.
Thank you again for your help:)
Well, that depends. We carry parts that worked on both Andersen and Anderson brands. I know it's confusing, but there are two window companies who have the same name with only a one letter difference. The distinction is big, though; Andersen uses very specific parts made just for their windows while Anderson uses more generic parts.
Ah, perfect. This is indeed an Andersen part. Specifically, it's our 36-030. I think you'll agree that this is a dead ringer.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
