Gap on hinge side of window

[lastcast]

The two upvc windows to the front of my house have slight gaps on the hinge side which is more apparent at the centre is there something that can be fitted that would help pull it tighter? also the rubber strip around the edge seems to have shrunk it an easy job to replace this? the windows are about 16yrs old.

Fit one on the frame, one on the sash.

Also clean and lubricate your hinges or the gaps will only get worse as the hinges ware out.
