Question about installation of replacement window and blinds
Comments (2)I can only sympathize. There is no way to install blinds inside Andersen 400 series T/W windows. I am sick about it and would not have purchased them had I known. I have 4 installed now, with 12 more sitting in the garage waiting for installation. They were custom order, so no refunds... Andersen said " ...we do not sell windows to be compatible with third-party accessories..." It never occured to me to check to see if blinds would work inside the window - I thought all windows were made that way for years....See MoreReplacing construction windows with replacement windows
Comments (3)The proper way would be to measure the new windows to fit inside the existing frame. Sounds like you already ordered them to replace the whole frame though. Theres no way of getting around it you'll need to use the flange. If you have casings around the windows or vinyl siding it will be a pretty easy job....See MoreBasement Window Replacement - What To Do About Rusty Metal Frame?
Comments (31)I always reccomend to replace these windows with a vinyl replacement window, not to mention 95% of the customers want the same because they don't want to spend money to fix old rusted frames or restore old deteriorated wood frames and after spending all this money to fix, they still have an old window which will required maintanance. Replacement windows come in any size with insulated glass with screen, can be a hopper, sliding or double hung depending on the size of the unit, etc....See MoreWindows replacement design question
