On old UPVC fan window, the handle turns all the way round but the window won't open. Suspect the mechanism has gone.
Really don't want to replace the window. Just want to fix it somehow. Ideas anyone please?
If you can take the glass out it would be easier. If you put an air bag or something to lift the window up slightly (or sideways if it is a side opener) creating a gap so you can see the cams. You can use something like a thin piece of metal to move the cams into the unlocked position. Once open you can then replace the espag
I would try taking the handle off first just to make sure it is not a problem with the spindle. It will also be easier to move the cams with the handle off
