    I have casement windows from the mid-80's. Previously fixed two cranks, but the third one broke a few days ago, and I forgot how to install them, but your video got me up to speed. No useless info, just gets right to the point and I love that. Install took me about 20 minutes. I think this comment took longer to write! 😂 Thank you!

    Great information. We’ve got wood windows from 1996 still holds in heat and keeps the suns summer heat out. Had them quoted for replacement due to condensation damage, staining, failed window cranks. Quote was nearly $20,000. Jumped on UTube found some excellent tutorials on reglazing, re-staining , repairing cranks for the diy’ers. I will spend pennies on each window if we put the sweat equity ourselves compared to spending thousands to pay to replace something just needing some repairs. Thank you for the quality video!

    good little video- however on my windows, i did not want to remove the trim and sash to expose the screws. too much repair work and they were not going to come out nicely like yours. i drilled oversize holes in the trim to expose the screws and after removal and installation of the new operators (the type that have exposed front mounted screws) I just bondo-ed up the holes, patched, sanded and painted and you can't even tell! just a tip for those who might not want to tear their sills apart.

    I had to contour the trim piece to fit my new part. Not a Swisco unit, but parts from Truth that were to be replacements for Wright brand. ANyway, it worked out, but I had to make the opening rounded instead of straight. Filled the little gap with rolled up brown paper as a sealant. Could fill with putty. Anyway, a wood rasp and a good eye is a great tool that worked for me.

    Hello. Great instructional video, thank you. Can you tell me what kind of window the window is that you used for this demo? I'm having trouble identifying my window and am told it's not an Andersen. It might be a Marvin or Pella. The hardware looks a lot like yours. Mind telling me what brand your window is? Thanks very much

  • @0716Michael

    In one of my windows, the screws holding the track just below the operator are stripped, like the threadsert is not even there. I can almost see it resting on the ledge below but accessing it is another story. Thoughts of popping the siding below the window to gain access. Any thoughts??

    These are new to me and this was great help.
    Just moved into a new place and they have these, but they are all worn out.
    Mine look the same as in this video, but can’t find the replacement parts... what was the make/model of the one in this video?

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  3 года назад

      The operator used in this video is an EntryGard. You can view it, and the rest of our operators here - www.swisco.com/cl/Casement-Window-Replacement-Operators
      If you have any questions about it or aren't sure it's a perfect match, don't hesitate to reach back out. Congrats on the new place!

    @vinmar7473 8 лет назад +1

    My window will not draw back in so that the locks can pull it into the lock position. Can some one help me????? As i look at it from the inside it's the right sash that is hinged on the right and will not close fully so I have been using the locks to up it in to lock it. Its almost like the lower right is not sliding in as i crank it. Do you have a video on this? Thanks.

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  8 лет назад

      +vin mar We don't have a specific video detailing the situation you're describing, but we can give you a few things to check. 1) Look for any obstruction that could be preventing your sash from closing. 2) Check your sash bracket and see if it may be out of position. 3) Check for faulty hinges -- ensure they're working properly. And as always, you can check out our Discussion Board at SWISCO.com where you can upload pictures and get advice from our experts. Good luck, Vin!

    I have Semco windows and need to replace cranks, crank arms (they say "Entry Guard" on them like the ones you showed in the video), and the bracket covering the crank arm. How do I match your part number with the Semco number?

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  4 года назад

      Good question! It's usually most accurate to compare the style and dimensions to find the correct replacement option. You can also send us a photo of yours for further guidance - www.swisco.com/page-id-part

    @paolag8813 4 года назад

    Hi there, by any chance would you be able to tell me how to fix/replace that plastic slider that keeps glass window aligned & snug/close to its corner, when shut? I can see in your video the black plastic piece is under a metal tongue (visible on your video 1:56 /3:22) 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  4 года назад

      Hmm could you be referring to the bracket? Either way, we should be able to help further! Send us a photo of your part here - www.swisco.com/page-id-part

  • @bryana1038
    @bryana1038 6 лет назад

    It looks like I need to replace my operator with the same exact setup that you used here. What kit should I buy from you?

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  6 лет назад

      Hi, Bryan. If you truly have the same exact setup, the SWISCO codes are 39-031 and 39-032 (for the operators), 39-114L (for the handles), 39-107 (for the covers), and 39-505 (for the track). However, measure to be sure that you do have the exact same thing. I've seen customers make mistakes like that before.

  • @airmojo
    @airmojo 4 года назад

    Any idea what was wrong with the original window operator ? Was it repairable ?
    My mother-in-law has several casement windows that are about 30 years old, that have some issues that I am going to try and fix... Made by Semco... I would think a lot of the issues are caused from lack of lubrication and or dry lubes.
    If I can't fix them, I will try to locate replacement operators that will fit & work, but I have no idea if that is possible.

    I don't know if anyone is still checking these questions but I was wondering if you could tell me the operator part number that you replaced in this video? I believe I have the same operator and I am having problems finding the exact part number. Thanks!

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  4 года назад

      I believe it was a Truth EntryGard.

    • @grettagrids
      @grettagrids 10 лет назад

      I have a newer style pella casement window ( 1999-present) with a frozen and stripped out operator and hinge ( you have to pry the window open and force it closed then lock it. this is the second one I have replaced and HATE the pella style.. Not to mention the expense. Could I switch the hinge style to either a double arm or single arm? had better luck with those on other windows NOT breaking so much as the shitty pella operators. Plus they want 136 bucks for those POS operators :( they also last me no longer then 2 yrs tops. So i'd like to modify the window a bit.. the window is in mint condition aside from this other issue.

      No idea, unfortunately. We handle hardware, not glass or sashes. See a local repair shop, they may be able to provide a quote.

    isnt it easier to just use your arm to pull your window back then rolling it >.> unless your window is grilled, then it shouldnt be a problem to use your hand

    • @martindye
      @martindye 7 лет назад

      I was about to write the same thing, then I saw you'd written it for me.
      Yes. Why on earth would you want to turn a little handle around lots of times instead of using your arm?
      If you're a human T-Rex with tiny little arms (and thus can't reach) then sorry, I understand.

    • @epiquewenqa
      @epiquewenqa 7 лет назад

      upon further thinking, (haha) I conclude that maybe these types of windows are heavy (so wind cant blow it shut). so they need that turning thing. also if you just push a window like this with your hands, you might destroy the mechanism of the window.

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  7 лет назад +1

      You should be able to easily open and close the window when the crank operator is disconnected. Once the crank operator is connected you need to rotate the crank to operate the window.

    • @epiquewenqa
      @epiquewenqa 7 лет назад

      Yup, just as I imagined. Thanks for the clarification!

      The screen gets in the away. Hence, the crank.
