Good afternoon

I’m trying to find out what this is called so I can buy spares and was wondering if anyone here knows?

They slide into either side of a vertical sliding internal secondary window - to keep it even and so it catches on either side properly. Photos attached.

I have googled and searched loads of window spare part sites but without knowing what they're called, it's proving difficult.

Any ideas?

Hi harshmallow,
I think you will find they are called bumpstops but I doubt you will find any for sale. You may have to buy something similar and adapt it, which may included fixing it with screws into the aluminium frame.

Hi Stoneyboy

Thank you for your reply. I take it these aren’t made anymore then. That’s a shame. Guess I’ll have to see if I can fashion something. Thanks again :)

Hi harshmallow,
If you google slding door rubber stop and look at the images there are a number shown which may be suitable for adaption.
