Introduction
Window hangers are designed for protecting wooden sash or screen frames
to their window jambs. Jambs are actually openings in which windows are
built. Window Turnbuttons are meant for providing better protection to
storm windows and screens from outside. They help to keep the wooden
framed storm windows and screens to fit properly to their jambs.
There are various types of window hangers depending on the type of the
window they are used for.
Turnbuttons can be rotated by hand by pressing the window frame firmly
against the moulding. Hooks can be used to attach the frame to the jamb.
The overall height and width of turnbutton and hanger vary depending on
the type of the window they are used with.
