Each lift has two fixing points, so use the correct screw gauge for the timber thickness to ensure a firm, lasting hold. Wipe the finished surface clean after fitting and avoid abrasive cleaners, which can dull the polished finish over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to buy two sash lifts for one window?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
