    I would suggest oiling the hinges. I did it with mine and it helped.Once they were running freely the gaps disappeared.

    yeah clean out the runners. if the bottom grip more than the top or visa versa it will put it out of line. clean and grease and proviiding none of the arms are bent should be ok

    i think i know what you are talking about now. is the window catchin on the frame?

    they are slides/guiders to lift the wndow into correct position.


    b&q have a building section that might have them. they have a sunroom place in airside iirc.

    maybe someone there could give you one
