Dear Sir/Madam,
Please find attached photos of the aluminum window system for which I need replacement corners, as some of these have fractured. The brand name on the window latch is Filco. One leg of these corner braces is held in position with a small screw (pictured). The screw hole is drilled clear through the leg of the corner brace. The other leg is crimped into position. The crimped leg appears to fit into a channel formed in the aluminum frame just over the latches. Are the enclosed photos sufficient for positive identification of the required part, or should I grind out the crimps in order to fully remove the other leg of the broken corner brace?
Thank you for your attention to my query.
