Fleetwood Glazing: Time for an Honest Assessment
Stiff in Cold Weather?
Seasonal stiffness can indicate moisture in the mechanism or thermal expansion causing misalignment. Both are fixable.
Having to Lift the Handle to Lock?
If you need to lift or jiggle the handle, the multi-point lock mechanism may need adjustment, lubrication or replacement.
Handle Getting Harder to Turn?
A handle that's progressively getting stiffer usually indicates a worn gearbox or misaligned locking points. Best fixed before it fails completely.
