Easy DIY Upgrade: Say Goodbye to Stuck Windows with Track Replacement

Measuring and Installing the New Track

Next, it’s time to measure the window frame to determine the correct size for your new track. If you’re replacing the track with a ready-made version, use your old track as a reference. In some cases, you may need to trim the new track using a fine-tooth saw or hacksaw, depending on the material. Accuracy is essential here, as a poor fit can lead to continued performance issues. Once the track is cut and properly aligned, check it with a level to ensure it's straight before fastening it into place with screws. If your window frame requires it, use wall anchors for added stability.
