MACO Multi-Matic's top loop is running: what's dangerous and how to fix it

I'm going to examine the weak spot of popular furniture and explain why the shutter can't be used until it's repaired.

MACO furniture, especially the popular Multi-Matic series, is well-known for its reliability and durability. However, like any complex system, it has its weaknesses. In my practice, sometimes the problem of automatically rolling the top loop is in this particular piece of furniture. If you notice that the shutter is starting to chatter, it is important to take timely measures to avoid dangerous situations.

I, Dmitry, am a master of plastic windows repair in Minsk. I have been working since 2003, I have passed through more than 9,800 windows.

The main thing is:The top loop on the MACO Multi-Matic may lose its fixing reliability over time. If there is a loft, do not use the lock, or it may fall.
It's a matter of safety, not just comfort.The window frame weighs 40 kg or more. If the top loop comes out of the grip, it can break on the floor or on the person. Don't open the window with the lute in the hope that it will pass by itself.
Repair of the upper loop
from 30 rubles.
If you need scissors in full, the cost is 150 rubles.

Causes of the Problem

1
The specificity of the knot The top loop ear is attached to the scissors by a special bolt. Despite the external similarity to other manufacturers' designs, it is the MACO that can lose its reliability over time.
2 of the
Natural wear and tear With long-term use (usually over 10–15 years), this problem is manifested precisely in the Multi-Matic series.
3 of the
Wrong use or poor quality of the milling Frequent opening of the shutter with sharp movements, constant loading of the upper loop, and poor-quality fressing of the shutter's corners during production can accelerate the appearance of the luft.

Signs of a Failure

  • I'm not going to.The creation begins.- I'm not talking.It's in the upper loop.
  • I'm not going to.There's a feeling that something's been twisted inside or there's a loft.
  • I'm not going to.When you open and close, you hear a knock or a scream.

What to do if a problem is detected

1
Don 't use the shutter. Opening and closing a window with such a malfunction can be dangerous; the shutter can fall.
2 of the
Close the fence and leave it alone. In a closed position, the risk of a complete loop failure is minimal.
3 of the
Call the specialist. Depending on the situation, I can pull up or replace the top loop and fasteners, check the condition of other pieces of furniture, and when the wear is severe, replace the loop or the whole loop.

How to Avoid Similar Problems in the Future

  • ✔ What is it? Regular maintenance.Prevention of the furnishings (cleaning, lubrication, fixing inspection) — at least once a year.
  • ✔ What is it? Avoid the overload.Do not allow sharp creases when opening, do not hang heavy objects on the shutter.
  • ✔ What is it? React to the first signs.There's even a small loft; don't wait for the loop to fully roll.
What to lubricate:Solidol and other thick oils are not suitable; they attract dust. WD-40 is not a lubricant, it washes off the residues of the lubricant, not replaces it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the danger of the top-loop loft?
