Part 26-116

These windows do not already have lift handles. Can I use install Part 26-116. If I can what screws do I order?

Thank you
Tom

I think the 26-116 could conceivably work for you, yes. These just mount to the face of the sash frame with screws. That's the catch, though; drilling new holes into a window sash can be tricky. You have to be very careful not to accidentally hit the glass.

You'd want a #8 screw like our 33-080, but length will depend on your window. I've been told by some customers that the 33-080 works well, but others have said that 1/2" was too short.
