Casement Hinges

Instructions for Sash Adjustment
1. The amount of sash sag that the HP hinge will correct for is dependent on the ratio of the sash width vs. sash height. To calculate the amount of drag adjustment for any given sash size, take the ratio of width to height multiplied by 1/16". Example: Sash size equals 24" x 36", width to height ratio is .667. Total adjustment is .667 x 1/16" = .042 (approx. 3/64").
2. To adjust a casement sash, first fully open the casement window. Next, loosen the two screws in the bottom hinge adjustment block approximately three turns (do not remove screws). Next, move heel of the sash towards the lock side of the window and re-tighten screws. For revere sash drag, repeat this procedure to the top hinge, except the adjustment is made by shifting the top of the window away from the lock side.
