Replacing hinges on UPVC window

Mar 03, 2014 0 Replies

I need to replace the friction hinges on a top hung UPVC window as the old ones are worn and the sash is drafty.



I could put them in the same place as the old hinges but I'm not entirely convinced that the originals were ideally positioned.



Before I start drilling new fixing holes (as the old ones don't quite coincide), is there a theory behind locating the hinges for the best fit?


Thanks for any useful pointers.
