■      Keep the head heights of all units the same

         Cleaning and maintenance

■       "Low maintenance" does not mean "No maintenance". For best results 
          wash down the frames with warm soapy water when you wash your windows. 
          ( Minimum 3 or 4 times a year - you would wash your car that often! )
■       Don't forget to wash the handles at the same time to prevent corrosion.
■       To treat corroded sash handles, remove, soak in vinegar overnight.
         Scrub with an old toothbrush, they should come up good as new.
■       Never use abrasive cleaning products on toughened glass - they will scratch!

■       Never polish titanium entry door handles - it will remove the protective coating
