We work with original fittings from trusted manufacturers, which allows us to achieve the highest possible results. Most often, the convenience and smooth functioning of a window depend on how its fittings are adjusted.
We can talk about its necessity in the following cases:
The door stopped closing
It takes a lot of effort to close the sash.
When closing, a grinding noise is heard,
To close the sash, you have to lift it,
Parts of the fittings come into contact with a distinct knock.
Unfortunately, few people pay attention to most of these problems. You should contact us only when it starts to blow through the window. And this sign indicates that the shaky profile needs debugging.
How is the adjustment made?
This process has a certain algorithm, which is very important to adhere to. Our specialists strictly follow all instructions, which allows them to achieve excellent results. If you still want to adjust the fittings on the window yourself, it will be useful for you to know that the sash pressure needs to be loosened in the summer and tightened in the winter.
To adjust, you need to find the locking pins. It is easy to spot serifs on them; this is a kind of indicator. A 4mm Allen key will help change the position of the trunnions. At the same time, the direction of the indicator towards the inside of the room indicates a tighter pressure. Accordingly, when weakening, the indicator shows the opposite direction.
IMPORTANT! Even if there is cold weather ahead, you should not press the sash all the way. This will not have the best effect on the seal and may render it unusable.

The OKNA MEDIA portal recommends: AXOR performance at the open seminar “Energy-efficient window designs”
Ideally, they should be your reliable and irresistible protection from the cold. And for the first few years after the installation of new windows, this law is, as a rule, unquestioningly observed. However, sooner or later, each of us will still face common problems such as freezing of a window in the frosty season, breaking of a balcony or window handle, unauthorized penetration of cold air into the room due to poor closing of the sash, and so on. No, this is not evidence that window design fell into disrepair. If everything is done correctly, it will serve you faithfully for many years to come. Knowledge and simple skills will help you adjust the window and once again make it the guardian of a comfortable temperature regime in the house. And thanks to the high quality of the products produced, it will help to delay the problematic period in the operation of window systems.
We switch the windows to seasonal operating mode: summer/winter
(You will need: 4mm hex)
The degree to which the window sash is pressed tightly can be independently adjusted. It is logical that in winter, the degree of pressure on the window profile sashes should be maximum - so as not to give cold air a chance to penetrate into the apartment. In summer, Steko specialists recommend loosening the pressure on plastic windows in order to extend the life of the rubber seals and allow a larger volume of fresh air into the room.
However, before you begin any manipulations with the mechanism, they must be treated with WD-40 aerosol lubricant. Unlike machine oil, advice on the use of which can be heard much more often, aerosol lubricant does not attract dust and, thanks to a special thin tube, allows you to easily reach those requiring treatment hard to reach places. This little secret professional installers Steko will simplify small window repair and will provide long term mechanism services.
Now about the main thing: how to recognize clamps?
These components of PVC windows are located around the perimeter of the sash. They are responsible for ensuring that the sash fits as tightly as possible to the frame. The clamps have the shape of eccentrics and in order to adjust the clamping pressure, it is necessary to resort to rotating the eccentric using a 4 mm hexagon.
To transfer fittings to winter mode it is necessary to turn the eccentrics so that they are facing the room. The mark is the thickest place on the eccentric.
- To go on summer mode
The shortest radius of the eccentrics should be turned towards the room.
Ideally, the adjustment of a plastic window should be carried out by a Steko specialist. Otherwise, you will not be able to insure yourself against damage window system in case of an error in the process of adjusting the fittings.
Repairing a window handle
If adjustment of the pressure of plastic windows is required no more than twice a year, then emergency situations problems associated with a balcony or window handle can occur much more often. Let's look at some of the most common situations and solutions to them.
Problem #1: The handle is loose
You are probably familiar with this unpleasant feeling when the handle, instead of holding tightly, shakes when pressed. Loose handles in plastic windows can be adjusted by tightening their fastenings. There is no need to call a specialist to perform this manipulation - you can easily do this work yourself. Pay attention to the rectangular pad, which is located under the handle and installed in a vertical position (usually). Use your hand to slightly pry up this cover from above and below, and then turn it 90. After this, you will see two bolts that need to be tightened with a Phillips screwdriver.
Attention! Never pry the edges of the cover with a screwdriver or any other tool, as this may damage the profile and deform the plug.
Problem #2: the handle is broken and needs to be replaced
(You will need: Phillips screwdriver)
Let’s say right away that minor repairs such as replacing broken handles with metal-plastic windows occurs in exactly the same way as installing a handle with a fuse. Steko recommends installing handles equipped with a lock or child locks on the windows of rooms where representatives of the younger generation are located. The first device will not allow you to open the window in principle, and the second will not give the child the opportunity to open the window wide, but it’s easy to switch the sash to ventilation mode.
The repair process starts, again, by unscrewing the plug and unscrewing the two bolts located under it. Next, you need to very carefully move the handle from side to side, and then carefully remove it. The new handle is inserted into place of the one just removed and tightened with the same bolts.
Problem #3: the handle is jammed
Often the handle mounted on window profile, wedge If something similar happens to you, do not rush to sound the alarm: there is no need to change window fittings. Let's say more: to implement this minor repairs You don't even have to remove the handle. The reason why these things happen is quite simple: the locking mechanism does not work properly. You can deal with the problem easily and simply: to adjust plastic windows, you just need to manually move the lock lever 2-3 mm, thus freeing the movement of the window handle.
