How To Open, Close, & Lock Your Provia Endure Double Hung Windows
As demonstrated in the video above, operating your ProVia Endure double-hung windows is a breeze. These windows include thoughtful features that go beyond what you’d find in a typical vinyl window, and your local Window Depot is here to walk you through the basics.
Opening Your Window
Start by unlocking the window at the top. Not sure if it’s locked? Look for the small visual indicators near each lock—they’ll show you whether the sash is secure or not.
Once unlocked:
- Lift the bottom sash using the lower lift rail.
- For ventilation from the top, pull down on the upper sash using the top lift rail.
Using the Built-In Sash Limiter
Your ProVia Endure window also includes a sash limiter—this handy feature restricts how far the top or bottom sash can move. It’s perfect for getting fresh air while helping to prevent accidents or keeping pets and kids safe inside.
Closing & Locking the Window
To close and lock:
- Make sure the top sash is fully pushed up and the bottom sash is lowered all the way down.
- Then, re-engage the locks at the top until the indicators show that your window is secure.
And that’s it! You’re all set to enjoy the comfort, safety, and ventilation that come with your ProVia Endure double-hung windows.
