 What is Easy-Stop?
    ""
Easy-Stop
weather-stripping system is a new concept in reducing air-infiltration. Designed to eliminate the old time consuming methods of metal jam liners, cushion bronze, spring bronze and interlocking metal weather-stripping.

Easy-Stop incorporates patented technology within an engineered parting stop to effectively decrease air infiltration while leaving the original details of the window untouched.

Made from cellular PVC, Easy-Stop is durable and paintable, it will not warp or twist and is highly UV light resistant. Easy-Stop can be cut just like wood.
 
  Installation is a Snap!
    ""
Remove the old wooden parting stop, replace with Easy-Stop. Insert weather-stripping on the lower sash and you’re finished.  See detailed instructions for the 1/2" Width Kit the 3/8" Width Kit, OR the 3/8" Width California Kit.
