Pivot Bars

Pivot Bars

Pivot bars for windows are a fundamental component of various window designs, particularly those featuring a tilt-in sash design. These bars are responsible for facilitating the pivoting motion of the window sash on its hinges, allowing for the window to be opened and closed.

Typically composed of sturdy materials such as steel or aluminum, pivot bars are available in different shapes and sizes to accommodate various window types and sashes. The selection of a suitable pivot bar is critical in ensuring optimal functionality and longevity of the window. Key considerations when choosing a pivot bar include the window's style and dimensions, the attachment mechanism required, and the material of the pivot bar itself.  One important part to consider is the pivot locking shoe, when finding the right replacement pivot bar.

Given the essential role of pivot bars in maintaining the operability of windows, it is imperative to exercise due diligence when making a selection. A pivot bar that is compatible with the window type and securely attached to the sash will guarantee optimal performance and longevity of the window.
