| NO.  I've done it that way for many years without any hassles from
manufacturers.  They get bent out of shape if you drill the sash
| though.  Before Sentrol (now called GE Security) came out with rare earth
magnets we used to lay a 1/4" bar magnet on it's side in
| the groove of the bottom rail.  That required cutting out 1.5" of the
weather strip and that never even raised an eyebrow.

| The button shaped magnets are fine for this.  The longer ones have to be
laid horizontally but that will require removing more of
| the weather strip.  That's why I like the smaller ones.
