If you are not sure where to start, learn about the types of window parts that may need replacement.

Window Hardware Company Offers All Types of Window Replacement Parts

Most windows require several different parts that must be selected and installed correctly in order to ensure maximum efficiency, function, and visual aesthetics.

• The window sash refers to the inner window frame that holds the glass in its place. The sash part can be either operational or fixed – depending on the design of the window. It can slide either horizontally or vertically.
• Hinges are used for casement windows that can open; they are installed on the fixed part of the frame. You can adjust the hinges to allow only a specific amount of movement of the window.
• If a window can be opened, it will always need some type of lock or lever installed on the inside frame to prevent the window from being opened from the outside. Some widows can even be locked in the open position.
• Pop-out windows require window operators along the bottom of the sill that open the window outwards. There could be different opening positions, which would be determined by the window operator.
• The sash lock is a locking mechanism, which secures multi-pane windows together. The sash lock is installed on the inside of the window and not only provides security, but also reduces movement of the window panes during strong winds or storms.
• Operational windows require handles on the frames in order to provide leverage when opening or closing the window. Some of the window designs require a crank mechanism with a hand crank that can be turned to open or close the window with a higher degree of accuracy.
• The frame is what surrounds the complete window assembly and provides support to sashes and the inner frame. Among other Truth window replacement parts, a strong high quality outer frame is crucial for airtightness and maintaining stability of the glass. With inner and outer frames, you can express your own style with a variety of designs and colours.
• The inner window frame connects the window glass to the outer frame and is essential for keeping it secure with respect to the rest of assembly.
• Finally, the window installation is not possible without the window glass. Windows can have either a singular or multi paned window glass with a variety of tint levels and UV blocking capabilities.

This type of casement window hinge is perfect for vinyl window frames and is available as either assembled or knocked down.
