Troubleshooting
Hinge does not close window tightly
Check alignment and ensure the correct hinge placement on the rebate. Verify that no obstructions are present. Ensure all fixing screws are tightened appropriately.
Window is stiff to open or close
Verify that the hinge is installed straight and that the frame itself is not warped. Ensure no paint or debris is impeding movement. Recheck screw tightness; overtightening can sometimes cause stiffness.
Black finish appears to be wearing
This is uncommon with quality finishes. Ensure only mild cleaning agents are used. Check if excessive force or friction is being applied during operation.
