A Fraction Too Much Friction?
Has it been a while since you've opened up your windows?
It's good to get some fresh air circulating with these hot days, but you might find your windows sticky or hard to open.
If they're aluminium windows - check the friction stays.
Like sliding door tracks you need to keep the friction stay track free from dirt and grime and keep the hinge mechanism clean. You can lubricate the metal pivot points with a little machine oil or CRC.
Conversely your window may flop open without any friction to keep it in place. If that's the case, chances are they need replacing, so give Jim a call to get them sorted. ph 0210 6988932

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
