  • Can I use screwjacks on a vertical window?

    Yes, but only if the window is at a low level. If your window is out of reach, a screwjack is not suitable. This is because the winder pole must be held in alignment with the screwjack’s thread when turning. If your window is high level this could be well above your head. See this illustration for more information.

  • Do I need to grease my screwjacks?

    Generally speaking no, but it also won’t do any harm if you do. Should you wish to lubricate yours, then we suggest a dry lubricant as this will look better and help to stop dust build up.
