18-008 5/8" Top Sash Guide

I need 2 top sash guides. Please let me know what the closest match is. I can modify the parts if there is a lip on it. Thanks, Mike

I have several windows with broken sash parts. When looking at the windows Channel balance look too long. The balance top part appears to be 19-002. The bottom 15-001. The rail is marked 2140 and is 22" long. The window is 22-3/4 high so I think the channel balance is too long. The window weig ... (cont.)

Hello and thanks for the sash balances I just bought. They were just the pieces I needed. However I found this broken piece. It's at the top corner of the sash and looks like it's supposed to be a stop for the top of the channel balance. It's broken so the channel balance protrudes above the sash. C ... (cont.)

in search of a left and right 1/2" viking window channel balance. The number is 26 DS 36. The metal portion is 26" long. Thanks for the help!

The metal portion is 26 inches. It seems that one end of the cord is loose at the top and must be inserted into the window frame where the hole is, and then manually pulled down and secured at the top by the pullout clip? Then the window is replaced over the balances? Thank you. Bob ... (cont.)

Last week, I ordered and received your part #18-008, a 5/8" top sash guide. Turns out to be the incorrect part. Can you please help with the correct part, using the two attached photos? Thank you.

Stamped 32 9 LQ CALDWELL MEASURES 33". The top clip on the window sill snapped off( I took a picture of the intact one). So I need one of those too. I think these are milgard windows. I weighed the window at 36 lbs.

I have two different size windows that I need parts for and the window balance is stamped with 303 and 273. I need all hardware including locks and this sash stop. This is first email I sent; tried to post thru website and was giving me an error. Thank You Rusty

Window channel balance top sash info

Hi all, I'm repairing windows with missing parts, so I'm hoping you can help me identify a couple of parts. The pictures attached resemble the 18-008 guide, but I'm not 100%. They're 2-3/16" tall. I've ordered new balances through you guys and I have those, but this piece is broken on every windo ... (cont.)

Hi, Please help me by telling me what I need to purchase/replace so that windows can be opened. Past homeowner left window channel balances off the windows so they could be closed. I looked at them. They have rust in the springs. I see the number 2730 on the sides. I see a two holes towards the mi ... (cont.)

Window is sloppy in frame. Window is having a problem engaging both channel balances. Could these sash guides be worn out? Using a S - 385-33 3260 will need 4 guides and 4 channel Balance

The original channel balance is stamped 27 4 FW CMC 10 (IMG_3474, 75, 76). I believe the correct one is the 28" Series 390 Channel Balance with the 2710 option? Also I need two top sash guides (IMG_3471 and 3472) which I can not seem to find. Thanks, Ted

My question is about the window top sash guide. Mine is length 1 3/4 , depth 9/16 , width 5/8. The nearest I can see on your site has a length of 2 3/16 , will this work for me or do you have one closer to my length?

We recently ordered some sash guides from you using the examples on you web site. They are not exactly like the ones we need. I have sent you pictures of what we have and what we got from you. Hopefully you can see the deference between them. The one thing that definitely is different is that ours h ... (cont.)
