Can this be used on a 2 x 2 wood frame window that opens out at the bottom? (Hinged at the top) Also how much weight will it lift?

I have used one of these to operate the aluminum window on a greenhouse for two years...works well for that. Lifts the weight of the aluminum window straight up. Not sure it could handle the weight of wood 2 x 2s. Since it is hinged at the top, it wouldnt be lifting much weight. Try it and if you have problems, put a second one on the other side.

This device works with the hinge of the window on top. However, i do not know how much weight it can lift. The window i use it on is very light aluminum frame. Yours would be much heavier than that so not sure. Sorry.

I did not bolt mine in I used a wooden block at the top of the double hung window to keep the window from opening and it kept the unit stable. It is not very heavy so it's easy to remove

Hard to say for sure. We use it to hold open a french door -- wood outer frame, with a large glass panel. It holds it easily, even though it sits on a slick floor. I'm tempted to say it will do okay, but I just don't know about your application.

As long as it isn't 'draped' it should work. It's stiff & incredibly strong.If not applying w/ frame channel & spline method just attach to woodenwindow w/ staples & a thin wooden or metal frame

I have 2 hinges supporting a 48 x 40 inches of 3/4inch thick plywood, don't know how much it weighs but its not light. It handles if fine, very sturdy.

The width is adjustable so that would be okay. You don't say if your window has a sash that raises & lowers. If you can raise and lower the glass to adjust the size that the window is open to the air- the height of the open space, this might work fine.

Hi Josephine, I would not recommend it for window use. It is quite heavy and fits best when screwed to a wall or wooden door.

Hi Lorinda, I do not believe that this opener would work in that application unless the door drops directly from the bottom of the coup allowing the opener to lift verticaly as it is designed to do--Jon

As long as the top of the unfinished window is strong enough to hold the fan's weight, you should be able to mount it using the bracket.

Absolutely not. I tried using mine on a metal door and hung a small welcome sign that weighed less than a pound. Found it on the ground every day. Suction cup does not work :-(

Possibly - depends on how stuck the window is. The pole is rather strong and if you have a place to "grip" - it might work. Without a handle, you could press against the top of the pane-frame joint and then for closing just pull down on the top of the window. But if it is really stuck - like most of my windows - pushing against the pane-frame joint sufficiently might just break the window.

I assume you are shortening the height. No, you can't take 2.5" off the bottom because there is metal hinge hardware that is 2" from the bottom of the door.

I think if your window swings open, you would need to do some modifications for this to work. If you had a sliding window, no problem.

If you fully engage the clamp on the window it will hold the weight but you must really tighten the clamp and have it all the way inserted on the window edge....otherwise it is likely to slip....it is a good mount for spotting scopes and such but a heavy camera and lens is going to test its limits.....

Could this be used on bottom of door instead of top/what do I use for this?

I agree with Mr Simmons... too thin. Unless you folded it, which you will unless your windows are huge... There is probably foam you can buy for this purpose

Yes, I can lower and raise the window easily because the door guard FALLS OFF too easily! I have stopped using them because they are just a nuisance and WOULD NOT RECOMMEND to anyone.
