I have seven paradigm windows. They were installed in 2006. C-Lc60-24x48 Original Owner
5 open on one side, 2 on the other. Series 8351.
The bottom hinge arm is rusting. Is it possible to purchase a single arm hinge set for these windows. the hinge arm is 10" long.
thank you!
Jerome
Hey, Jerome. I'm not sure exactly what it is you have, but it sounds like a casement window hinge. Could you use our 36-004-10? This is a stainless steel hinge set that can be used on many different casement windows. The video below will show you how.
Thanks for these photos, Jerome. I think this might be a double arm hinge. The reason I say that is because I see a black slider piece on the left side of the track. It appears to be riveted to something, presumably a second arm that runs under the bottom length of the sash. You may want to confirm.
If so, then I recommend our 36-004-14. This is based on the bottom track being 13" long; we don't carry that size anymore, but the 14" version should still work as long as you replace the top and bottom at the same time.
As long as your base track is the same size, then that would still be our top suggestion, yes. Your next step should be to measure the base track on your old hinge to ensure that it's the same size. If not, we offer other options, so I'd be happy to find something better suited for your application.
I'm afraid we don't sell a hinge that works as you describe. I'd be happy to look into it further, but we'd need a clear photo of the hinge assembly removed from the window and shown without obstruction in full. Would that be possible?
