What's in the Pack?

1 x Pair of Selected Friction Window Hinges

Dimensions:

  • Track Width: 18mm

For all other dimensions please see the measurement diagrams in the image gallery.

All measurements are approximate.

How should I measure my hinges?

Please refer to the images in the gallery to guide you.

  • A: First you need to establish the hanging type, do you require a top or side hung hinge?
  • B: Then you need to take your first measurement - this is the actual length of the hinge. You will need to measure the part that fixes to the window frame (not sash), please see the diagram in the gallery showing where the hinge length measurements are taken from. Hinges come in the following sizes: 8, 10, 12, 16, 20 or 24 inches long.
  • C: The second measurement is that of the hinge width i.e. the width of the metal part that fixes to the outer frame. (Almost all window hinges will measure 18mm in width, but with windows that are very old the measurement could be 14mm and if this is the case this hinge will not unfortunately, fit. We do however, offer an alternative hinge which may meet your requirements.)
  • D: The final measurement that you need is the Stack Height, this measurement is the height of the hinge when closed. Stack heights come in two sizes 13mm or 17mm, so even if you are unsure you can usually calculate which is correct because of the 4mm difference.

Fitting Advice:

  • 1. The friction hinge must be correctly positioned usually in a purpose designed groove in the extrusion, typically 18mm nominal wide track.
  • 2. All fixing holes must be used to secure the friction stay.(With the exception of the top location hole used in the manufacturing process).
  • 3. The hinge must be fitted so that, in the closed position, the centre of the vent arm lies parallel to the centre of the track.
  • 4. The hinge should be fitted so that the end cap butts into the corner of the frame. The corner of the vent or weld sprue must not foul the end cap of the hinge.
  • 5. The friction device should be adjusted to give the required degree of resistance.
