Data Sheets
Operating Assembly
Window sashes ride on carriages consisting of two sets of twin rollers mortised into the bottom of each moving sash. The sash is raised onto its carriage by rotating the operating lever handle 180°. Lifting gear connected to a tie rod transmits motion to the carriage, lifting sash. Based on G-U 933 or FFI Lift/Roll operating hardware.

Glazing Configurations
All types and configurations are available to use in Duratherm windows and doors. From single monolithic to triple glazing, laminated, curved-in-place, electrochromatic switchable – virtually any type or configuration commercially available – and perhaps even some that are not.
Glazing Methods
Dry Glazing
Specially developed extruded silicone gasket sets the glass by compression. Our proprietary system is long-lived, has low maintenance, and stays water resistant.
Wet Glazing
Our special silicone wet glazing compound bonds to the glass for long-lived sealing. Plus our continuous extruded silicone weatherstrip runs around the frame perimeter, and the seal is not compromised by seasonal expansion and contractions of the sash and frame.
