Simple job, the other day - mock up for some very small
brackets to fit a stay onto an insde glaze steel frame.

These were converted from the standard "outside glazed"
bracket and countersunk.

Schlegel Locking Catch and some Purpose Made Keeps.

Two separate jobs.

Schlegel Fitch Catches, converted to locking.






This is a replica keep job, completely separate from the other job.



We make quite a few variations of stainless keeps - there were a lot 
of systems that used them - most of a unique design to that company.

More stuff next time.

Any questions - metalwindowparts@gmail.com

Sash Balance - Special Feet.

Standard Spiral Balances, with replica Balance Feet.
The original ones have been obsolete for years.

  
This is what they looked like, half way through the job and below, fitted to 
standard D Balances.



Nice job to do and solved the problem for the customer.

Roto Operators for Crittall and other Steel Windows.

Now, you don't come across these very often.












 

















These are Roto Operators, which allow the window to be opened by
rotating the handle.
These are a lot more common in the USA but you still find them now
and again, particularly in kitchens, where the windows are fitted with 
fly screens.

about, drop me a line on metalwindowparts@gmail.com

Treasures of the parts bins.

Having an in depth sort out, brings all sorts of things to the top of the pile.

Over the next month or two, I'm sure I will be finding stuff that has been
buried for years.


 Off to do some more digging!

Archital Luxfer Pivot Handle

Another job just finished.

The task was to create a conversion plate for a handle
that is still avalailable, to fit as per the original, which
has been obsolete for many years.

It has been tried out on site and works a treat.

to help him with.

Result!
