Assuming you still have the old aluminum single pane windows in your house, and a neighbor boy throws a ball. (Your son would never do that!) Depending on where you live in the countryside, you can pay anywhere from $ 75 to $ 150, get it repaired. Well, if you're willing to spend an hour or two, you can set the window for about $ 20 or $ 30. I will not try to explain how to cut your glass. I will explain how to get the old glass,Size of the new glass, and install the replacement glass. So, we try to use this article to explain the most common form of aluminum framed windows.
If you have a sliding window, sliding one of the panels will be stationary and the other back and forth. If you increase the slider is broken and just off the ground. If the soil does not come out evenly, roles in top control. Sometimes the top rollers are not so the slider can be adjusted on. Only the vinethe roll in force and lift with some force. This should push the rollers down, allowing you to remove the control panel. Place the dish on a table and measure the width and height of the glass alone. Take this measurement and add 1 / 2 "in width and height. This is the new glass size that you need to order. Measure the thickness of antique glass. It will be either 1 / 8" or slightly less than that. The thin glass is called single strength and is actually about 3 / 32. "The 1 / 8" of glass iscalled double-strength glass. Make sure that the correct order. If you order double strength glass because they are stronger than single strength piece of historical character, you'll have a hell of a set time frame back together have. The small "difference 1 / 32 can be a real pain in the neck. Trust me, it is only to be replaced with a single strength.

Now is the time to take the frame apart and remove all the old windows. Make sure you put on a pair of heavy gloves to avoidbe cut. Here you will find a screw in each corner of the frame. To remove the two screws in opposite corners. So, if you remove the screw at the bottom left, you must also remove the upper right corner. Now, take a rubber mallet, slide one of the corners of the table that the screw was removed, and tap the screen to separate it from the glass. Set that aside half of the frame, then you do the same with the other half. Now you should see the two halves of the frame, a piece of rubber, andlots of glass. Have cleaned all the glass, then the tire, making sure to get every piece of glass out there.
If you get the replacement glass house, put on the table with one short and one long side hanging over the edge. Put the rubber on the two protruding edges. Put half of the frame (no matter which half) against the glass and tap the corner on the first. Then tap the long side on the rubber until it stops. Then make the short side. Now set the othertwo edges of the table and do the same procedure. Finally, install the screws in the corners. Put the disc in, and you're done.
If broken glass is the fixed part, gives a little 'extra work to remove the disc. Need to get the cursor, then instead of removing the two screws that hold the center bar. Tap the center bar away from the plate until it is out of the side of the plate. Set it aside. Then tap the edge of the frame to pull out of the channelWall. Once off the side of the channel, you can raise and how has the cursor. Remove and install the glass in the frame as you have the slider, put the frame back into the hole, tap in the side channel, install the center bar and screws, and install the sliding panel. That's it! You're done. If the windows do not fit this description, do not be afraid! I am going to try the issues in the coming weeks to cover all possible windows configuration. Thus,will chat with you all next week.
