The replacement sashes fit exactly as like the original that we had to replace. Very easy to remove the old ones and install the new ones. The new sashes feel a lot stronger, and I feel confident they will outlast the windows because they are metal and not plastic.Over the years the original sashes installed by the window installer degraded most probably from the UV light coming in through the window. These were made of a type of plastic. These metal ones are very strongly made, match the white of our window frames, and were easy to install.If possible, I would suggest to use the original screws from the old sashes. The original screws were of a slightly different thread, and their length was slightly shorter. I did not want to take a chance on degrading the self tap type thread in the frame, and the length of the new screws appeared to be about 1/8 inch longer. In my case I felt safer to use the original screws.I saw in the package there is a diagram showing the dimensions. This would be very handy if making a new installation.From my point of view this is a good quality window sash.

The handles on my old vinyl windows have been breaking off one at a time for the past few years. These are a perfect replacement.

I originally only bought one to replace a broken one. Once I saw how well made these were, I bought enough to replace all the windows. The old ones were plastic and these are metal. I don't see these ever needing to be replaced, so get some today, replace them all and you'll never need to do it again. Well worth the money and time.

Part was a perfect fit and upgrade from plastic but I had to reuse the old hardware to get the handle to sit tight to the window.

Our windows had these handles but made of plastic so they broke easily. These metals ones are much better. Perfect fit, easy to install.

I used these handles as replacements for the old plastic ones around my house that have been cracking. The are sturdy and they fit the existing holes left behind by the old handles. But, I learned the hard way that the provided screws are too long for my windows! They penetrated through the vinyl, and cracked the glass on the other side. From now on I will continue to use the original screws from the old handles.

We love this addition to our bay windows. Perfect fit for window depth and perfect size for pulling window in to latch shut. Was a good buy for our home.

Installed on one of my windows, the entire house had no handles on the windows, but this one is in a position where I have to lean over making it difficult without a handle. This solved that problem. Fit just perfect. Just be careful while drilling and lining it up and don't over torque the screw to avoid any chance of cracking like others.

So happy to get these. Our vinyl ones have slowly been disintegrating because of our climate and was so happy to be able to replace them with these metal ones. Fit perfectly, come with screws and I expect them to outlast the windows. Thank you!!

These were perfect replacement better than original because they're aluminum not plastic and will not deteriorate.

This sarsh is not available locally. Luckily we could find it on Amazon. The price is kind of high, but it comes with a package of two. Good quality! Much better than the plastic ones.

After giving the plastic type two tries, I finally found these ones that are good quality and sturdy. The plastic ones fit the existing holes perfectly but were either broken during installation or after handling them for a few weeks. This one is made of metal and I was even able to use the existing holes in my screening sliding door, even though they were slightly different. I had to use different screws to fit our door.
