What should I do if the window doesn't open and close well?

Every household has windows, which not only have ventilation function, but also have a certain decorative effect, making the whole space unique. Windows may not be closed or opened after long-term use due to wind, sun and other reasons. What should I do if the window doesn't open and close well? What if the sliding window is not easy to push and pull? Let's have a look. First, what if the window can't be closed?

1, for the window made of plastic steel, if the window can't be closed, first check whether there are obstacles in all parts of the window, especially whether the shaft of the window runs out. If you can't close the window because the window shaft is used up, you can lift the sash and press the shaft back.

2. Because the window is exposed to the air for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some sand and ash layers at the sash and window frame, which will become an obstacle to the lighting window. If there are a lot of sand and dust, you can scrape off the dust and sand with a bottle opener and other tools, then scrub with a soft cloth and close the window.

Some iron windows may be rusted by iron sheets due to long-term exposure to the air. After the iron sheet rusts, it is very difficult to push and pull the window. At this time, you can drop some lubricating oil on the rusty iron sheet, and then try to move it. If the sash has been moved, it is best to clean up the oily parts on the window frame, otherwise it will be easily polluted by ash and blocked again.

4. If the iron sheet of the window is rusty and difficult to close, you can also sprinkle some pencil scraps in the place where the window is difficult to push. This is because the main component of pencil shavings is graphite, which has lubricating effect. Another advantage of using pencil scraps is that it is not easy to get dusty. When choosing to use pencil lead, it is best to use B-class pencil lead.

5. If the window suddenly fails to close, check whether the lock point of the window is broken or misplaced. If the lock point is broken, it needs to be repaired and replaced in time. If it is caused by the dislocation of the lock points, the window will be easier to close after the lock points are aligned.

Some windows are sliding windows. There is a pulley under each sash, and the pulley passes through the guide rail below. If you push and pull the window too hard, it may cause the pulley under the sash to derail. After the pulley is derailed, the window will not close. The solution is to lift the sash and then clamp the pulley in the middle of the guide rail.

7. If the window is made of wood, it won't close after weathering for a long time. Maybe the wood of the window sash is deformed and needs to be repaired by a master.

Second, what should I do if the window is not easy to push and pull?

1. Reason: The groove in the window is full of greasy and dirty things. This is because there is oil in the pulley when the window is pressed. During use, dust and floating objects fall into the groove and accumulate in the groove for a long time. The window can still be pulled when it is thin, and finally it can't be pulled to a certain extent.

Solution: Look at the groove first to see if there is too much dirt. Hook out the dirty things with a small hook, or put a plastic bag on your hand and wipe it with a rag. Pay attention to clean one side, but also pull the sash to the other side, clean the other side thoroughly, and pull it back and forth several times.

2. Reason: The window frames are deformed, and some of them were not inspected properly during installation, and they were deformed in a few years. This situation caused the window sash to fail to work normally and the normal track was deformed.

Solution: Change the window frame.

3. Cause: The pulley under the window sash is broken.

Solution: You can find a professional to replace it, but the labor cost is not low. You can also do it yourself, buy some pulleys in the shop and remove the window sash. Turn the bottom of the window sash up, remove the wheel and replace it with a new one.

3. What if the window can't be opened?

Plastic steel window

1. It can be opened with wrenches and other instruments.

2. If the plastic steel window is used for a long time and the pulley on the fan is damaged, replace the pulley.

3. If it still won't open, you can ask the plastic window installer to come to the door for repair.

1. Check whether the sash and window frame are sealed with paint. To remove paint, you must first insert the blade of a hard putty knife or paint scraper into the bonding position and cut inward. If necessary, you can tap the blade gently with a hammer to go deeper. If the exterior of the window is painted, this step can be repeated to break the exterior paint seal.

If the window still won't open, you can check the window rail on the window frame above the window frame, which may be blocked by multiple layers of paint. At this time, you can use a hammer and chisel to carefully remove the excess paint at the window rail and scrape off the thick paint, but be careful not to scratch the wood on the window rail. Coat the slender grinding block with sandpaper, smooth the cleaned window rail, and then spray silicone lubricant. If the window is stuck, you may need a small pry bar to open it.

If the window still won't open, the reason is probably the paint at the bottom of the window rail. Stick a piece of broken wood on the window sash, move the wood around the window sash, and tap the wood to let the window sash return to the window frame; Then, see if you can open the window. If it can be opened, it is necessary to clean the window rail, grind it smooth, and then spray silicone lubricant.

If the window still can't be opened, you can use a small crowbar, and it's best to pry the window sash from the outside. Insert the flat end of the pry bar under the window sash, and you can pad a piece of broken wood under it for better prying. At the corner of the window sash, gently pry it with a crowbar, and then gradually move to the middle. Be careful when using a crowbar, too much pressure may damage the sash and window frame. If the window finally opens, you can clean the window rail first, and then spray lubrication with silicone lubricant. If the window still won't open, it may be caused by extreme humidity, poor construction or uneven deposition. At this time, let the carpenter repair the window, and don't force the window to open.
