Replacement Handles For UPVC Windows

UPVC window handles come in a variety of styles, but they all have the same locking mechanism. To replace a uPVC window handle, take off the top screw from the base of the handle. This will reveal two additional screws.

Then, take measurements of the spindle to ensure the new handle is suitable. It is important to know what kind of handle you've got as there are many different sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

The majority of double-glazed windows feature Espagnolette handles which operate multi-point locks for improved security. The handle is operated by a 7mm square spindle that connects to a geared box inside the window frame. This gearbox moves the multi-locks when the handle is turned. They are available in a variety of styles, including cockspur keys, inline and locking handles.

Our uPVC replacement window handle kits are designed to make it easy to replace a damaged or faulty window handle made of espagnolette. These uPVC handles come with all the fixing screws and a range of spindle sizes that will work for all applications. They also come with key plugs that enable them to be converted from standard open/close to fire escape and egress non-locking handles (if utilized in conjunction with the appropriate key plug).

Cockspur Handles

Cockspur handles, typically found on older uPVC or aluminium windows and doors, are a simple latch-and-catch arrangement. The handle nose is attached to or put into the catch, which is a wedge of plastic, which is attached to the frame of the window. The wedges are available in different sizes, and it is essential to know the size of step you need prior to purchasing an alternative handle. Typically, uPVC frames have a handle step of 9mm, while aluminum frames typically have 21mm as the step size.

A cockspur handle is locked with the key, providing added security for your home. The lock is fitted into the handle with an appropriate spindle that fits in the hole in the handle (also known as a backset). The spindle is 7mm square and can be used either to open or close the window.

If you are replacing a handle for a cockspur, it is important to ensure that the replacement has the same step height as the original. This is usually measured from the base spur of the handle and ends at the underside of the handle's nose. This measurement is often referred to as the stack height or backset. It is essential to know this information prior to placing an order for any handle.

Cockspur handles are available in straight/universal, cranked or leftor right-handed versions. This is to allow the handles to be fitted onto windows that open from the left or right and also to allow the operator easier access to the window.

Check if your window needs a restrictor. This is designed to stop the handle from being opened beyond a certain level. Generally, these are required for high-rise commercial or flats for security reasons. Most domestic homes don't require these.

There are a variety of styles and shades of cockspur handles including white uPVC and brushed steel. The best choice for your windows will be based on your personal preferences and style, as well as how you want the window to function.

Tilt and Turn Handles

The UK is home to a variety of double-glazed windows with tilt and turn handles. They are found on both timber and upvc windows. The handle can be turned at any angle, up to 180 degrees. This permits the window to open into the room fully, and also to drop down for ventilation. The handle is locked in this position, requiring a key to unlock the handle when needed to open it.

This type of handle is extremely easy to replace, as it has only one large handle instead of several smaller ones. This can reduce the overall appearance of the handle and is more in keeping with the modern minimalistic design trends. They are also easier to clean as they are able to open inwards.

They are also 4 to 8 times stronger than a conventional casement window. This makes them ideal for larger windows and door. The frames are made from steel cores which adds durability and strength.

The tilt-and turn mechanism is more secure than a casement since the handle can be locked in any position. This is particularly important in areas with children because it stops children from opening the window.

Many homes opt for tilt and turn windows due to the fact that they can be used in different ways. They can be opened horizontally as windows, lowered down in a hopper-style to provide ventilation, or tilted backwards for cleaning and maintenance. This is a great option for those looking to increase airflow and reduce the noise that surrounds their home. Glass is easily removed, making them easy to clean and maintain. They are available in various sizes and colors. They are a great addition to any type of home and complement both traditional and contemporary styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles are easy to operate and offer fantastic views of the outside without blocking the glass. They are typically employed in casement windows, that hinge on the side, or awning windows. They feature an mechanism that is similar to a window bar and linkage arm that supports the window sash that opens and closes by turning the handle in a clockwise direction. Unlike other types of handles that are geared towards windows, a crank window's mechanism and handle are often subjected to significant wear and tear, which could cause the gears to strip and the handle to cease functioning or fall off the operator shaft. Regularly inspecting the crank handle and the operator mechanism will ensure that they are in good condition for a number of years.

A crank handle is an arm made of metal that is attached to a perpendicularly rotating shaft. The arm is turned in a circular direction by gripping and rotating it in the same way that you operate a sharpener. In certain instances the handle may be operated by the leg.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. It's this hole that allows it to be connected to machinery and equipment. The handle's arm has a connecting bar that converts the circular motion from the handle into rotary and reciprocating motions to control machines and equipment.

Boats are often loaded onto trailers using crank handles, in addition to machines and equipment that can be adjusted. They are typically made of stainless steel which is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Due to this, the majority of boat crank handles are coated with powder to protect them from damage and to make them easier to clean.

Replace the crank handle if it stops working or will not allow you to open the window. Before doing this, look for screws that attach to the trim inside the window frame's screen track. If there aren't any, you can try to loosen the cover with a stiff putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb as well as the frame and pulling on it. If it doesn't work, you can take the cover off and open the crank mechanism by removing the screws on the window frame.
