We recently replaced badly buckled friction hinges on a bathroom window at a rental property in Goldthorpe, Barnsley S63.
The damaged hinges had pulled the window away from its frame. This left a visible gap that let cold draughts into the bathroom.
Replacing the failed window hinges
Access made this repair more awkward than usual. The bathroom window was directly above a sink and toilet, leaving little room to work.
Despite the restricted space, we safely removed the window from inside the property. We then replaced both damaged friction hinges and serviced the internal locking mechanism.
Once refitted, the window closed correctly. The new hinges eliminated the gap and restored a proper weather seal.
Buckled or worn window hinges can cause draughts, gaps and difficulty closing your window. Replacing the hinges is usually far more economical than replacing the complete window.
