I need some direction in putting my window balances back in the window. The windows are aluminum single hung, circa 1985. The balance is a very thin sheet metal u-shaped piece with a spring inside. The spring connects to some string and there is a small clip that looks like it fits into a slot in the window frame. I can't figure out how to fit the balance in the window and then get the window back in the frame. Does the balance go into the window to be installed, or placed in the frame and then slide the window in? :wall: I can take some pictures if necessary. Thanks!

I recently replaced our home's entry door. It is a pre-hung 36" door with a 14" side light. I removed the old door and installed the new one, and everything was working great. Then a few weeks later the door began to warp/sag and no no longer latches when it closes. In order to get it to latch you have to lift the door so the latch lines up. This all seemed to happen at the same time the humidity went up. I've tried to adjust the shims and a couple of other little things to fix the problem, although these things helped, at least temporarity, they did not prove to be the fix. I've looked at adjusting the door latch system, but it is poorly constructed enough that I would have to move the latch about 3/4 of an inch to get it to line up properly. So if I did that, one of the screws would fall right into the existing latch hole. The door does not seem to be level, so I am baffeled as to what caused this and how to go about fixing it. I am hoping somebody has some advice on how I can deal with this situation. Thank you in advance, Bob
