Window Hinge Measuring Guide

Step 1.  Check the hanging of your window.

  • If the handle is on the SIDE of the window, you need SIDE Hung Window hinges.
  • If the handle is at the BOTTOM of the the window you need TOP HUNG hinges.

Step 2.  Measure the length of the hinge.(A)

  • The length is the track part that you can see when you open your window. Your old hinge may be a 10" but if you can fit a larger hinge in then do that. The few pennies extra will pay you back in extra years of service due to better weight distribution.

Step 3.  Measure the width of the hinge. (B)

  • Measure the width of the track that you have just measured, this could be either 15mm or 18mm.The most common one is the 18mm and is fitted on 90% of windows.

Step 4.  Measure the stack height.

  • This is not the easiest bit the do, the stack height is the actual thickness of the hinge. This can be difficult without taking the hinge off. Don't worry, THERE IS A WORKAROUND. We advise buying a pack of Hinge packers for a few pound that will enable all of our hinges to fit on your window regardless of the stack height. This will make you job infinitely easier and you will only have to remove the window opener once.

There are 2 different stack heights, 13mm and 17mm. The packers we sell clip on nice and snug to make the 13mm hinges up to 17mm with a simple clip on action.

    16" Fire escape and easy cleaning upvc window hinge

    Posted by Ray Henderson on Oct 19, 2018

    Relatively straight forward to fit, only holding the weight of glazed unit causes difficulty whilst trying to also put screws in. Only discovered that the wrong hinge (12") had been sent after removing old hinge so had to replace and wait for correct version to arrive. That said there was no issue when I pointed out the error and correct one received within 48 hours

    This item was purchased on a 3 for 2 offer. Good courier delivery and easy to fit. Following the fitting of the hinge set the window is now closing properly.
