Replace broken or damaged cords: Sashes are hung on cords that pass over pulleys and connect to weights hidden in the hollow sides of the case. Broken or damaged cords can be easily replaced. Sashes must be removed from the window frame to replace the cords. The new sash cord must be of the same diameter as the old. Cotton cord is normally supplied pre-stretched and saturated with wax to reduce the risk of rot and to allow it to run smoothly. Tip: Braided cord is always more durable than twisted.

Doors – as much as windows – is your building’s face (either of the commercial or private estate). They allow entering and exiting from a space, so they must function well – and look good too. Doors with glass (such as patio o French) can definitely make your insides brighter with the sunlight. With clean, right-installed panes they also make an interior of your building appear to be more spacious. But there are problems that present in some properties – such as glass (or a whole unit) breaking. This makes your home or workplace worse in terms of appearance and functionality. We truly believe that doors and windows are an important part of a building. That means owners who do not maintain these units so they work and look good are to be considered careless in terms of property. The main argument for this is decreased effectiveness of those doors – broken or neglected. Door repair is needed when there are some functional or visual defects. Namely, paint cracks and glass breakage.
