I want to change side hung hinges on a upvc window to top hung.
Can I use the old hinges? I know new ones are described as top or side hung. What's the difference, and how important is it?
The hinge needs to be at least half the depth of the sash. So if you have a side hung sash with 12" openers, you could use them on a sash no more than 24" deep.
Side hung friction stays have a nylon lifter situated on the hinge helping to lift the sash as you close it towards the frame
