window parts

Handy Person from Knoxville, TN

I ordered and received part 15-192 (x14) - order # 2355538 -, but it does not fit in the grove as it is too thick.

I dismantled a pivot shoe that come with the "spring". Do I need other parts?

Can I sent you back the 14 pivot shoes?

Thank you for your answer,

AnneĀ

Hello,

Your photo does resemble the 15-192 Certainteed pivot shoe, which uses the S170 and S171 coil springs, along with the parts listed under the related items section on the 15-192 product page. Past customers have reported that they needed to shave the front of the shoe down a bit to install it in their window jamb. This is not uncommon since the style of the shoe has changed a bit over the years.

If you'd prefer to avoid modifying the parts you purchased, we also offer a conversion video shown below for Certainteed and Simonton windows with this type of hardware. Take a look and review the full process below and see which option you'd prefer for your repair. Our return policy can be found here. Thank you.
