Window Hinge Measuring Guide
Step 1. Check the hanging of your window.
- If the handle is on the SIDE of the window, you need SIDE Hung Window hinges.
- If the handle is at the BOTTOM of the the window you need TOP HUNG hinges.

SIDE HUNG
Step 2. Measure the length of the hinge.(A)
- The length is the track part that you can see when you open your window. Your old hinge may be a 10" but if you can fit a larger hinge in then do that. The few pennies extra will pay you back in extra years of service due to better weight distribution.
Step 3. Measure the width of the hinge. (B)
- Measure the width of the track that you have just measured, this could be either 15mm or 18mm.The most common one is the 18mm and is fitted on 90% of windows.
Step 4. Measure the stack height.
- This is not the easiest bit the do, the stack height is the actual thickness of the hinge. This can be difficult without taking the hinge off. Don't worry, THERE IS A WORKAROUND. We advise buying a pack of Hinge packers for a few pound that will enable all of our hinges to fit on your window regardless of the stack height. This will make you job infinitely easier and you will only have to remove the window opener once.
There are 2 different stack heights, 13mm and 17mm. The packers we sell clip on nice and snug to make the 13mm hinges up to 17mm with a simple clip on action.
F.A.Q
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. All our window hinges come in pairs.
We can't promise that however if you have a upvc frame then its easy to put new screw holes in using self-tapping screws. Click here for screws
This is the thickness of the hinge when all the parts are closed or stacked on top of each other. Our hinges are all 13mm stack but if you need 17mm stack then our hinge packers will do the job for you.

Bought these to replace a broken hinge. These replacements were a perfect fit and were easy to install. I can recommend this product.

12" SIDE HUNG UPVC WINDOW HINGES
I bought some generic hinges from elsewhere and they did not fit correctly so I replaced them with these and they were perfect! Always replace Cotswold with Cotswold if you want the holes to line up and the windows to close properly!

From Site to Order to Delivery... Excellent Service
How on earth can my order arrive so incredibly quick and to top it all, they were exactly the the right product that I ordered and not only that, but the teaching video on the site explaining how to measure and replace it was incredibly easy. Best site ever for ease of use and understanding, oh and the product worked perfectly

Good quality and easy to fit
These hinges were recommended as the mid-range option based on their price. Whilst not as sturdy as the originals they were replacing (which were 16 years old), they are more than good enough. Smooth motion and very easy to fit.....no need to pay some to remove and replace 12 screws per window! I was quoted £150 to replace on 4 windows and did it myself for £36!

Excellent product in fact better than the hinges we have got on the windows previousl. Ordered two at first so pleased with them another ordered 4 more. Would also like to got them very quick, the first two in a few days and the 4 was sent by special delivery which I did come the next day but the postman wanted a signature even though there was instructions where to leave them, but finally got them the next day so very good service in all and would use this company again.
