sash stay / window stop -- looking for more
I really like this particular sash stay / window stop, but can't find them anywhere (online or locally). I'd like to mount several more; the ones we have were mounted by my grandfather, probably in the late 1940s or early '50s. They were made by Amundson Products Co., Superior Wisconsin (patent #20 ...

Window stopper on old wood windows
I have a rental where the wood windows are kept open with this stopper. Do you have something similar that will hold the windows open. Some of the windows are missing the part or the rubber stopper is worn out.

I work at a theatre in Texas and we are building a functional sash window for our set. How much clearance on either side is needed for the spring to be able to slide in and have enough tension to hold the window up? We might be looking at using 2, one on each side. The window pane is going to be ... (cont.)

window sash springs
I am redoing my windows in my 128 year old home. The glass I replaced in the bottom part of the window is substantially heavier and the weights won't hold the window up. I heard about these springs and want to know if they will work for a 22lb pane.

Where to install 20-001?
I installed the 20-001 sash spring on the bottom of my bottom sash(es) because the cord sash opening on the top of the bottom sash was so large that I couldn't attach the nail (there was noting to pund it into). But now my windows are way too tight I can't opening them without extreme pressure. Wo ... (cont.)

2 questions re old sash windows
While I am reasonably adept at repairs I just don't have time to replace ropes and wights in several windows that won't stay up without a prop. I have been told that there is some sort of flexible spring steel bit of hardware that fits in channel that will hold window up. True or just wishful thinki ... (cont.)

Reducing tension for 20-001?
I just received my order of tension springs. They really work well, but... they are a bit too "stiff" and the window is now quite difficult to raise and lower. Is there a way to reduce the tension so that the window will move more easiy? Thanks. Jay

window sash tension springs
We have an old victorian with double hung windows, most of which do not have any sash weights anymore. Most windows weigh between 7 and 12 pounds. Will the tension springs work for keeping them open and in place? Do I need any special spring for different windows? Do I need 2 springs per window? ... (cont.)

Wood Window Tension Spring
Hi, I have a property that was built circa 1985. One of the wood window sash won't stay up. Looking at the tension spring you have, I wonder it will fit in my window (picture attached showing the sash and channel). I'd also have check if the spring width of 3/4" is too wide or not. Could you g ... (cont.)
