Friction stay replacement — what you need to know

Friction stay replacement is the most common aluminium window repair we carry out — and the most important for homeowners in established Gauteng suburbs. A friction stay is the hinged arm mechanism that controls how far your window opens and holds it in position. When it wears out or fails, the window either won't stay open, drops suddenly, or won't close properly.

What is a friction stay?

A friction stay is the two-arm hinge mechanism mounted to the side of an aluminium window frame that allows the window to open to a set position and hold there. The friction in the mechanism keeps the window at the angle you choose. Over time the friction wears down, causing the window to drop or fly open.

Why do friction stays fail?

Friction stays wear out through repeated use, UV exposure and environmental pollution — all common in Gauteng's climate. They are sold and replaced as a pair. The window sash must be removed from the inside to carry out the replacement. Our technicians carry standard friction stay hardware on their vehicles for same day replacement.

How much does friction stay replacement cost?

Friction stay replacement costs R450 per stay at Trideniel Aluminium & Glass, whether you're replacing one or multiple stays on the same visit. This includes the friction stay hardware and installation. No call-out fee. 6-month workmanship guarantee.

Same day or scheduled?

Single or emergency friction stay replacements are completed same day. For larger properties where multiple windows need attention — such as estates or homes with many aluminium windows — we schedule a dedicated visit at a convenient time Monday to Saturday.

⚠️ Signs your friction stays need replacing

  • Window drops or swings fully open when released
  • Window won't stay in the open position
  • Window is stuck open or won't close fully
  • One arm of the friction stay has come loose
  • Window is hanging at an angle or sitting unevenly in the frame
  • Draught or gap visible at the top of the window when closed

Regular window maintenance — the smart choice for established homes

Aluminium windows in high-income Gauteng suburbs typically need friction stays and handles serviced every few years. A scheduled maintenance visit covering all windows in a home prevents emergency call-outs, extends hardware life and keeps windows operating smoothly and securely. Call 078 246 4898 to arrange a full window assessment and service quote.

How much do aluminium window repairs cost in Gauteng?

Friction stay replacement is the most common aluminium window repair and costs R450 per stay — the same price whether you're replacing one or multiple stays on the same visit. Friction stays are replaced as a pair and the price includes the hardware and installation. No call-out fee.

Window handle replacement costs R150 per handle where more than one handle is replaced on the same visit, or R550 for a single handle replacement on a single trip. This difference reflects the call-out economics of a single item repair. If you have multiple handles needing attention, booking them together is significantly more cost effective.
