Repair of plastic window pen — price in Minsk

Why replacing a pen often does not solve the problem, and what savings do those who do not know

You turn the pen and it turns. It turns, it doesn't attach the mechanism. Or it doesn't turn at all.

«The pen is broken, we need to change» — the first thought almost everyone has.

Logically, the pen is broken, the pen is changed.

But 80% of the time, the problem isn't the pen.

What's really breaking

A pen is just a lever that you use to control the mechanism inside the shutter.The reducer— a central mechanism that moves the staples up and down and to the sides through the pull.

If the speaker is stuck or broken inside, the pen rolls around.

I mean,The pen is broken.The cause of the —reeductor failure or lack of lubrication and adjustment.

Why is this happening?

The most common cause of breakage is the incorrect use of the window. The instructions for any plastic window are: you can only turn the handle when the shutter is completely closed and pressed.

✔ What is it?The work is tightly framed.
✔ What is it?The chips are in the response plates on the frame.
✔ What is it?Only now the pen is turning.

What people do in practice is they open the window to ventilate, then they try to close it, but the shutter is not yet pressed to the end, and they spin the pen. Or the window is in a discarded position and the pen is turned horizontally.

At this point, the chips fall past the response planes. The mechanism spells. The person makes an effort; and the result is a reducer breaks, the pen breaks, or the angle transmission suffers.

What about the oil?

The second reason is the lack of lubricant in the mechanism. The furniture works in conditions of dust, temperature, humidity. Over time the lubricant dries up, thickens, turns to dirt. The mechanism starts to run tight.

The person turns the pen with effort and overloads the reducer again.

A simple ointment once a year.It's a special-purpose unit, not a WD-40, that's two-and-three times longer than the life of a piece of furniture, but almost nobody knows about it.

How I diagnose a problem

When you call and say, 'The pen is broken,' I don't go to the pen immediately.

I'm taking the pen — I'm rolling two screws under the decorative overlay

2 of the

I'm checking the speaker, whether it's spinning freely, whether there's a loft, whether there's any other sounds.

3 of the

I'm looking at the square of the pen.

4 of them

Checking the — angular transmission; whether the power is being transferred to the upper mechanism

5 of them

I'm looking at the dashes, whether they're bent or out of the response boxes.

Only then do I say it's broken.

Three repair scenarios and how much each costs

1 · Only the pen is broken It's rare.

The handle is cracked or the square tail is broken, the reducer is intact, the mechanism is working.

The solution:It's just a simple change of the pen.

Work + new pen is 10 rubles.

That's 10 roubles.

2 · Pen + wrench reducer The most common case

The handle is rolling because the six-bars inside the speaker are broken or it's soiled by dirt.

Why can't you just change the pen:If you put a new pen on an old sour reducer, it breaks down in a week, and the load is still on, the reducer is still going to go down, and the new pen is not going to hold.

The adjustment + lubrication of the mechanism is 50 rubles.

The new pen is 10 rubles.

It's 60 roubles in total.

3 · Cornered transmission breach It's rare, but it happens.

A knot that transmits force from the handle to the top of the handle, which can rotate but the handle is not pressed from the top.

The solution:I usually warn you before you start working, but it's more complicated and expensive than just replacing a pen.

The adjustment + lubrication is 50 rubles.

The new pen is 10 rubles.

Replacing the corner transmission 120–150 rubles.

The total is 130 and 160 rubles.

In any case, it's cheaper than replacing all the furniture (300–500 rubles.) or buying a new window.

Why is the adjustment worth 50 rubles

It's not a'rotate six-sided '; it's a complex of works:

✔ What is it?Check all the tabs — are they in the answer tabs
✔ What is it?Set the press to the perimeter of the crease
✔ What is it?The steering wheel is adjustable
✔ What is it?All the moving connections are lubricated
✔ What is it?Check the — blocker to prevent the window from opening in two positions at the same time
✔ What is it?Install a new pen if needed

It takes 30 minutes for a window, and after that, the window will work smoothly and easily for another two years, if you lubricate it once a year.

How to Use a Pen to Keep It From Breaking

The main rule

The handle can only be turned when the lid is tightly closed and pressed against the frame.

If you feel resistance when you turn, don't push. Close the shutter tightly, press the handle, and only then turn. And lubricate the fitting once a year.

The questions I'm asked the most

Or can I just change the pen without adjusting it?

I can. But I don't recommend. Save 50 rubles now, but in a month or two the problem will come back, and you'll have to pay for the trip again. It's not profitable. It's better to do right now — adjust and lubricate. Then the problem goes away for a long time.

Is the key pen (child protection) more expensive?

Yes, a little more than 15 rubles instead of 10.

Can you guarantee that?

Yes, for the adjustment and the new pen, six months. If the pen starts running tight or rolling again during that time, I'll come for free, check, fix.

What if I tried to lubricate it myself?

You can try, but there are risks: pour lubricant on a rubber sealant (it will explode), break the lock, pull the adjustment.

An example of a calculation for your case

Call: "The hand is rolling, the window is not closing". I come here, I diagnose for free, and I'm giving you one of three options:

Option A(smashed only the pen) — 60 rubles with adjustment, or 10 rubles without it (I don't recommend)
Option B(hand + reducer) — 60 rubles.
Vary B(corner transmission) 130 and 160 rubles.
