Adjustment of windows and doors
Windows
Top swing reversible | side guided
There is no actual adjustment device on top
swing reversible windows or side guided
windows. Therefore, they must be installed
very carefully to ensure a suitable clearance
for the ironmongery in the hinge sliders and
guides.
Top guided | Top hung
On top guided windows and top hung win-
dows, friction can be adjusted by adjusting
the bolt in the hinge slider on the hinge. To
ensure optimum functionality, it is impor-
tant that friction is adjusted equally onboth
sides.
Side hung
The hinges can be adjusted using a hinge ad-
justment tool if the sash sags a little.
Doors
There are no actual adjustment devices on
doors. However, it is possible to adjust the
hinges with a hinge adjustment tool in or-
der to regulate the space between the frame
and sash if the door sags upon installation.
The door can also be adjusted so it presses
harder on the weatherstrip in the closing
side by adjusting the striking plate with a
screwdriver.
Adjustable keeps
The adjustable keeps are mounted in a stan-
dard position from the factory. The first time
the keep is adjusted break off the littel tap
at the end of the adjustable plate and adjust
the plate a little bit more to the side than
necessary at the following adjustments. For
general adjustment loosen the two screws in
the adjustable plate and displace the plate
forward or backward depending on whether
the sill is too tight or too loose. The keeps
are adjusted with bits torx 20.
