Window Balance Replacement

Handy Person from Tampa, FL
I have a window that one of the balances when bad. I can't find the manufacturer's name or anything else. The only marking I found was a "32F" on the existing balance. The channel seems to be 3/8" deep by 1" wide. The top of the existing balance uses a hook system. The existing balance is a ribbed channel balance measuring 32" long and 1/2" wide and 1/2" deep. I would like to get the two balances and pivot shoes if you think I can replace with one of your products. Thank you!

Hello!

We should be able to help but we'll need more information before we proceed further. For starters, can you show us a picture of how your balance mounts to the track? Can we also see a picture of how your cord anchors to the pivot shoe?

Great, thank you! It appears you have an old discontinued balance. We can help but our replacement won't be exactly the same as what you show here. To outline it for you, we'll be using a "skinny" ribbed version of our Series 795. This balance comes with a T-lock shoe by default but you won't be able to use it. You'll need to pop it off and find a way to re-install the metal clip that anchors to your pivot shoe in order for our replacement to function. 

With that said, I'm going to email you a purchase link and price quote for 2 balances that you can use to place an order on our website. If you have any questions just let me know!
