I have a broken glass in an old, about 1972 Pella wood frame window, about 18" by 72". This is a non-working window at the top of a double height living room, made to match the casement windows on the first floor level. There's a separate storm window panel added later on the inside, so no rain comes into the room. Glass repair guy says entire window frame will have to be taken apart to replace the glass. Is this the customary way to repair this type of broken glass in a Pella window??

Recently, I was at a 150-year-old restaurant, which had a spring loaded door for one room. The door was very hard to open—you had expend some noticeable force. Leaving, however, was very easy; the door rode as if perfectly balanced, but closing it remained difficult. I finally let it close itself. It did so up to the point where it caught on the doorframe. I thought it was something requiring adjustment, but then, when my back was turned, the door slammed forcefully for that last half-inch. It’s an odd question, but it’s been bothering me: why would a door behave like that? Any ideas? Thanks!
