window won't open or close
appears a problem with crank- attached photos of it- can I replace with crank with screw as it seems it's not catching? If doesn't work is it returnable? Or do I need entire unit?

Brittle or flexible?
Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me about the feel of the 6' ROLLYSON SNAP-IN (Product Code: 55-158-6). I think this is the correct part for our windows and our current glazing (25+ year old windows) is very brittle and snaps easily. Just a little bit of pressure, even from kid fingers, and ... (cont.)

Window falls down
Hello- In the past, I have purchased your Part # 15-067 which is no longer made. Your 15-118 has been recommended as a replacement but frankly I do not like what I see as to the way it is designed. It also appears to me that a 15-129 or 15-153 or 15-178 would work. My windows are "quite old" (20+ ye ... (cont.)

When I was researching what balance I needed, I ended up having the shoe from the other side rocket up the channel and get lodged on a scre ... (cont.)

Lock won't close
The locking mechanism him on the door that contacts the wall is slightly broken. There should be an extruding piece that gets pushed in when the door contacts the wall. This piece has broken off. Send out the lock won't close properly.
