Sash Window Query
Posted: Thu Nov 04, 2010 1:00 pm
Hi guys,
Hopefully a very quick query but I need some clarification regarding sash windows and their opening mechanisms.
I am replacing a single glazed bay window with a double glazed unit and the firm I have found has given me two options in the way the windows slide (as apparently the the tradional weight/pulley option is not possible).
The first is the Sprial Balanced option - which after a bit of research I'm now aware of but the second option (and the area I'm struggling on) is a Friction Hold mechanism.
I can;t seem to find any information on this on the internet and was hoping someone would be able to give me some more details on this.
Thank in advance
