Hardware we repair and replace

• Sliding window locks and rollers
• Window locks for added security

Casement windows that will not open

When a casement crank turns but the window does not move, or the handle spins freely, the operator gears are usually worn out. We replace the operator and, if needed, the hinges, so the window opens fully and closes tight against the weatherstripping.

Locks that do not latch

A sash lock that will not line up usually means the sash has shifted, the balance is worn or the keeper is loose. We fix the cause, not just the lock, so the window closes and locks easily. Better locks are also one of the simplest ways to secure your windows against break-ins.

Finding the right part

Window hardware varies by brand and age. We match parts for Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Truth and many other manufacturers. When an exact match is no longer made, we find a compatible replacement. Read more about common window lock problems.
