Product Information

Full details

This Cast Sash Window Lift from Loops is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to restore or enhance the functionality and aesthetic of sash windows. Its primary benefit is providing a durable and stylish lifting point with a classic Polished Brass finish. A minor caveat is that it is sold individually, so multiple units may need to be purchased for a complete window set. Key features include its robust cast construction, specific 32mm fixing centres for secure mounting, and a compact size of 48 x 45mm.

FAQs

What material is the sash window lift made from?

The sash window lift is made from cast material, providing durability and strength.

What is the finish of this window lift?

This window lift features a Polished Brass finish.

What are the fixing centres for this lift?

The fixing centres for this lift are 32mm.

What are the dimensions of the lift?

The dimensions of the lift are 48mm x 45mm.

Does this product come with screws?

The product information states it is sold boxed, but does not specify if screws are included. It is recommended to purchase appropriate screws separately based on your window frame material.

Can I buy this in a set?

This lift is sold as each (individually). You will need to purchase the required number of units for your window needs.

How should I clean and maintain the Polished Brass finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. For maintenance, use a mild, non-abrasive brass cleaner and dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

Window lift feels loose after installation.

Ensure screws are tightened securely. Check if pilot holes were adequately sized for the screws used. If the wood is worn, consider using slightly longer or wider screws, or wood filler for a secure anchor.

Polished Brass finish tarnishing quickly.

Ensure the lift is kept dry and cleaned regularly. Use a specific brass polish designed to protect the finish. Consider applying a clear lacquer if consistent shine is a priority and periodic polishing is not desired (test in an inconspicuous area first).

Difficulty opening or closing the sash window.

The window lift itself is unlikely to be the cause. Check the window tracks for obstructions or misalignment, and ensure the sash cords or springs are functioning correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and long-lasting construction.
  • Classic Polished Brass finish enhances window aesthetics.
  • Easy and secure installation with pre-defined fixing centres.
  • Suitable for restoration projects or new installations.

Cons

  • Sold as a single unit, requiring multiple purchases for pairs of windows or multiple sashes.
  • The Polished Brass finish may require regular maintenance to retain its shine.
  • Specific fixing centres (32mm) might limit compatibility with some older window frames that have non-standard spacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the desired location on the sash window for the lift.
  2. Measure and mark the positions for the two fixing screws using the 32mm fixing centres as a guide.
  3. Predrill pilot holes if necessary, especially in harder wood.
  4. Align the window lift with the marks and secure it using appropriate screws (not typically included).

Compatibility:

This lift is designed for sash windows. The 32mm fixing centres are a standard measurement, but always verify compatibility with your specific window frame before purchase. It is sold as an individual unit and does not come as part of a set.

Care:

To maintain the Polished Brass finish:

  • Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  • For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive brass cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully.
  • Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots.
