The Easy TouchTM Balance System    aamalogo AAMA Certified!

After many discussions with experts in the window industry, it was clearly understood that these window suppliers required a balance system that was superior to the spiral, tape, and block and tackle balancers currently used in windows. The window industry was asking for a balance system that was easier to assemble, install and adjust. The Easy TouchTM Balance System was designed specifically to address these needs.

This system is designed for vinyl, wood , composite and aluminum windows in both standard and custom sizes and incorporates many new features, including:

  • Reliable heavy duty spring (with no mechanical parts)
  • Shoe mechanism designed to last a lifetime
  • 100% egress (no jamb stops to buy, cut or install)
  • Adjustable tension with exclusive "Blue Dial" adjuster (eliminates creep)
  • Locking tilt bar (secures sash to frame jamb for safe handling)

Additional advantages include:

easytch
  • if sash is removed, the shoes are automatically locked in placed until the sash is returned to its normal operating position
  • long travel springs provide full sash travel for 100% egress, even with smaller windows (this is compared to the 88% limit inherent in most commonly used spiral, tape of block and tackle designs)
  • windows are easier to use, requiring 25% - 40% less effort to operate than other balance mechanisms
  • quick window assembly drastically reduces labor costs
  • highest grade engineering materials
  • shoe assemblies roll off the fully automated production line and all components are manufactured in the USA

The team at Hill Design Products, Inc. is truly excited about their Easy TouchTM Balance System and works closely with customers to develop durable and economical components for each fabricator's requirements, whether it is for wood, vinyl, composite or aluminum windows.
