| A couple of the (many) windows in our house are missing either the screen or the storm in the triple track attached storm windows. The triple tracks are old and eventually need to be replaced so I don't want to spend a lot of money on custom replacements and since they are quite old I can't identify the original manufacturer. Short of replacing the entire triple track now, are there generic replacements that I could assemble/build to my exact height/width dimensions? If so, where could I get them? |

The reason I ask is that having done all of my windows, a few at a time over the last 2 years, I can whole-heartedly attest to the convenience of being able to open and close the windows without having to raise storms, lower screens, raise screens, lower storms every time we want to turn the heat or AC on. Add in the windows that are half hidden by a bunk bed or other obstacle...these windows used to be left closed all the time. Now they are opened with 1 hand for cross breezes, etc. Finally, I just washed all of my windows in a very short amount of time due to the tilt-in feature. Removing the storms and then climbing half out of the old windows took hours and was usually left until I could barely see through the windows. Just a thought... |
