Product Information

Full details

The Timco Universal Casement Stay is a reliable solution for homeowners and contractors looking to secure traditional wooden casement windows in an open position. Designed for both left and right-hand operation, this 254mm hardware piece provides consistent, controlled ventilation and prevents windows from slamming during windy conditions. While it is built for long-term durability and corrosion resistance, users should ensure the window frame surface is compatible with standard screw-fixings before installation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this be used on uPVC windows?

No, this product is specifically designed for traditional wooden casement windows.

Is the stay handed?

No, the Timco Universal Casement Stay is non-handed, making it compatible with both left and right-hand opening windows.

What is the length of this stay?

This stay measures 254mm in length.

Are screws included?

Yes, the pack comes with all necessary fixings required for installation.

How do I prevent the wood from splitting when installing?

We recommend drilling pilot holes smaller than the diameter of the provided screws before final installation.

Troubleshooting

Window does not stay open

Check if the pinning mechanism is fully engaged and ensure the stay is mounted at the correct angle to support the weight of the sash.

Stay feels loose after installation

Verify that all mounting screws are tightened completely. If the wood has become stripped, use a slightly larger screw or a wooden dowel plug to reset the fixing point.

Stiffness when operating

Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the pivot points to ensure smooth movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compatible with both left and right-handed windows
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant finish
  • All essential fixings included in the pack
  • Simple, functional design for traditional wooden windows

Cons

  • Specifically designed for wooden casement windows only
  • Fixed 254mm length may not suit oversized window frames
  • Requires manual screw-in installation which may need pilot holes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward but requires basic tools including a screwdriver and, ideally, a drill for pilot holes. First, position the stay on the bottom rail of the window sash to ensure it sits flush. Once the desired open angle is determined, mark the screw holes on both the sash and the window frame. Drill small pilot holes to prevent the wood from splitting, then secure the stay using the provided screws. For maintenance, periodically inspect the screws to ensure they remain tight and wipe the metal surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth to keep the finish clean. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may compromise the protective finish over time.
