You saved my sanity today!!! 😊
I cleaned my windows and couldn’t get it back in correctly!!!
Thank you! I'm 77 years-old and my daughter and I were able to repair her bedroom window with your instructions. You were more helpful than the folks at Harvey Windows!
Thank you so much for this video tutorial. I bought this home a year ago with Harvey windows. I cleaned them in the spring and had no issue with them as far as not staying up, but then just a week ago I cleaned them again for fall cleaning and one of them would not stay up. You're tutorial made it an absolute breeze to fix it in less than a minute. Thanks again.
Excellent tutorial- thank you! Fixed my window myself while 39 weeks pregnant in just a few minutes!
That was a very well explained video. I like how you did all the actions slowly and deliberately.
Thanks for this.
You are AWESOME I have been worried about having to pay someone to come fix this and I knew it was my fault when cleaning the windows. I watched your
video and fixed the two windows in less than 10 minutes THANKS SO MUCH Easy to do even for a 67 year young lady LOL
CZcams for the win!! Thank you very much sir!
Honestly that was the best instructional video to hit CZcams! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise
Wow, this was an excellent explanation of how to fix the window. My wife cleaned the windows and two of them would not stay open. This video not only makes it clear how to fix the problem (takes about 1-2 minutes), but how to avoid the problem in the future when cleaning them.
Thank you sooooo much! I've been troubleshooting and thought it was just a bad design!
Thanks! Pushing up the top window allowed me to lock it
Thanks so much! I struggled, but finally got it. This video saved me from having to call the repairman who never shows up -- and saved me money and aggravation, too. It was also helpful to know the cause -- other similar videos didn't seem to cover this point.
Thanks so much. These instructions were so easy to follow and I fixed my window in about a minute!
Thanks Doug your instruction video was perfect we fixed two windows which had separated one mechanism on each window. We will call your company if we change out any of our windows or need repairs. Again, thanks so much!
This was perfect. Following your instruction I got this done on the first try. Thank you!
Kudos for sharing this quick and easy repair method
Saved me hours of scratching my head!! Thanks a lot
Dude you make a totally great teacher. Thanks
Awesome video! Excellent, clear explanation. Thanks Doug you saved me lots of aggravation!
Thank you thank you thank you... yours was the 3rd attempt to find the same kind of Harvey window I have. Mine a bit bigger than the ones here but this senior citizen made it happen. I've been cleaning them for years without this happening but glad to find the solution. Thanks again.
Dude. You saved the day. Got it done in minutes. Many thanks for sharing!!
Thank you! I was able to quickly repair my window and didn't cost a dime. Very empowering!
Thank you so much for this video. I was changing the bird feeder in my apartment when this happened. The video easily explained how to repair this window. Thank you again!
Thank you so much!! Easy repair!!!
Thanks so much for your clear instructions, in layman's terms. Uch appreciated!
Thanks for the video. We have a set of Vantage Series 6500 windows thru Home Depot. They don't have the side component spring loaded. Instead, you push them up with a tool. One side of our window was out of the pivot channel. We were able to take it out and after much wrangling and putting a minor gash in the inner frame, got it back in and working as it should! Thanks again for the instruction.
Great. Even though you have different windows, the process is similar between manufacturers
Great video! I got the windows fixed in minutes plus now we know how to keep from continually causing it.
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching
Thank you so much!!! It was very helpful. Gby
Thank you - so easy!
Perfect, thank you!
THANK YOU! This has irritated us for TOO long. Easy fix when someone teaches you how.
Thank you so much! 👍
Wow, thank you so much. I could not see how my wife did this.
Worked exactly as you described. Thank you!
This happened when wife cleaned the windows and was able to fix. Thanks!
Thank you!
Clear, concise instructions. Many thanks.
Glad to help
Thanks! Have watched other videos but yours was great. I did it in munutes!
Thank u!!!!!! I just cleaned my windows and one side popped out was getting annoyed
Fantastic, thank you. What happens if the metal in the pivot block has popped out?
Great video! Thank you for the help!
Thanks, really helpful!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Mine is broken on the top portion - but I am going to try this anyway.
This has happend a couple of times over the years and I keep coming back to you here on this video to refresh myself. You are the man! As I can see here in the comments you have helped a lot of people. Add me to your list Doug. Thank you.
Thank you!!!!
I can't see where the pivot bar would be for the UPPER window, which drops like a rock.
You best
Thanks for the video it works like charm. Needless to say, my wife thinks I'm a hero now. (shh.. )
I only use Anderson window's, unlike harvey window's, they don't need repairing, you just Install them!
Funny how nobody talks about the top one not staying up.
As soon as I turn it back to u-shape it stops working. What am I doing wrong?
It only works if I keep it in a turned position but then I can't lock the window. As soon as I put it in the u shape it it locks up again and will not move.
