I have storm windows that have 3 tracks I had all the hardware replaced and I cannot get them to stay up in place Everything falls down, Im not sure if I am installing them correctly I have one storm in the far back track and them the screen in the middle and last the smaller one in the track closest to the inside of the house. Please help its getting cold out there.. Thank you

i cant help you fix them, but..cut a broom handle, to hold the window up till you get it fixed...untill somebody can help,you'll be warm

I think perhaps you want the screen in the most outside track, then the storm windows interior to that, so you can lift them to get fresh air.

We have old aluminum combos, they are designed so one storm goes in the upper most outside track and the screen goes in the same track but below it? Then a movable storm goes into the track inside of those, so it can go up and down. Then our wooden house windows are on the inside of these.

ALL OUR STORM windos have 3 track..from inside the room they are hung 1 window to the most outside track , next window into the middle track and last the screen into the closest towards the inside.the screen we have are 1/2 screens. if you have a full screen than that would go to the most outside track.

We have similar issue and are always confused about where the screen goes. We keep ours on the inside lower.

Thank you for responding I feel retarded, Does each window-screen have there own track or does one go on top of another I have 3 tracks
