Window slipping
1. The window in my door will slide down, leaving a small gap at the top. Is there an adjustment I can make to fix this?

Look for butyl tape for sealer. Pretty simple especially if you have a helper.

The inside frame comes off (screws)
Glass is set in outside frame using sealant and sometimes small blocks on bottom
If sealant dries out and/or blocks slip the glass will slide down
When removing inside frame have a helper outside to hold frame glass so it doesn't fall out
Clean up, install new sealant to hold glass in place...new butyl tape around inside & outside frame.

I followed pretty much the same procedure. Used black silicone and re-bedded the window. Problem solved.- Do you mean the typical fixed window in your entry door.....inside/outside frame with glass between......

Here is example of track for Hehr. You may find make of window in lower corner.Window seal wski wrote:
