UPVC window handles come in various styles but they all have the same locking mechanism. To replace a uPVC window handle, remove the top screw at the base of the handle. This will reveal two screws.

Then, take measurements of the spindle to make sure the new handle is suitable. It is crucial to know the kind of handle you have, since there are various sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

Espagnolette handles are found on the majority of modern double-glazed windows. They are equipped with multi-point locks that offer improved security. They function by using a 7mm square spindle from the back of the handle which connects to a gearbox located on the inside of the window frame, which turns multi-locks as it is they are turned. They are available in a variety of styles, including cockspurs inline, key, and cockspur locking handles.

Cockspur Handles

Often seen often on older uPVC and aluminium windows cockspur handles are a simple latch and catch arrangement. The handle's nose is affixed to or inserted into the catch which is a wedge block 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 step height you require prior to buying an alternative handle. In general Upvc windows typically utilize a 21mm step and aluminium frames usually have a 9mm handle step.

A cockspur handle is locked using a key, which provides additional security for your home. The lock is put into the handle using a spindle, which fits into the handle through the hole for locking (also known as a backset). The spindle is 7mm square in cross-section and can be used to open or shut the window.

If you are replacing a cockspur handle, it is important to make sure that it has the same height of step as the original. It is typically measured from the base spur of the handle and ends at the underside of handle nose. This measurement is also known as the backset or stack height and it is crucial to know this information before ordering a handle.

Cockspur handles can be straight/universal or cranked. They are available in left hand or right handed versions. This allows the handles be placed on the either the right or left opening window and provides the operator with easier access.

It is crucial to determine whether or not your window requires a restrictor that is designed to stop the handle being extended beyond a certain amount. These are usually required for high-rise flats or commercial buildings for security reasons. Most domestic homes don't require these.

There are a variety of styles and colors of cockspur handles, including white uPVC and brushed stainless steel. Selecting the right one for your windows will depend on your personal preferences and style, as well as the way you want the window to perform.

Handles that can tilt and turn

Tilt and turn handles are a popular style of handle which is typically seen on double glazed windows in the UK. They can be found on both upvc and timber windows. The handle is usually set at 90 degrees, however it can also be turned at 180 degrees. This permits the window to open into the room fully, and also to lower it to let air circulate. The handle is locked in this position, requiring a key to unlock the handle if needed to open it.

This kind of handle is easily replaced, as it has only one large handle, and not several smaller ones. This can reduce the overall appearance of the handle and is more in keeping with the latest minimalist design trends. They are also easier to clean since they open to the inside.

They are also up to 8 times stronger than a conventional casement window. This makes them perfect for larger windows and door. The frames also feature a steel core which adds durability and strength.

The tilt and turn mechanism is more secure than a casement window, as the handle can be locked at any angle. This is particularly important in areas with children, as it prevents children from opening a window.

Many homes opt for tilt and turn windows as they can be used in various ways. They can be opened horizontally, just like windows, lowered down in a hopper fashion for ventilation or tilted inwards to clean and maintain. This is a great choice for those who want to improve airflow inside their home. They can also help with noise reduction. The glass is easily removable and easy to clean and maintain. They are available in various sizes and colors. These windows are ideal for any type of home and are a perfect match for both traditional and modern styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles are easy to operate and offer a great view of the outside, without obscuring the glass. They're commonly used in casement windows which are hinged on the side, or awning windows. They feature an mechanism that is similar to the window bar and linkage arm that is used to support the window sash which opens or closes by cranking the handle in the clockwise direction. In contrast to other types of handles, a crank window's mechanism and handle are often subjected to a significant amount of wear and tear that can cause the gears strip and the handle to cease working or fall off of the shaft of the operator. Regularly inspecting the handle as well as the mechanism for operating it will ensure that they stay in good condition for a number of years.

A crank handle consists of a mechanical arm that's attached to a perpendicularly rotating shaft. The arm is operated manually by gripping it and turning it in a circular direction similar to how you use the sharpener of a pencil. In certain instances the handle could be operated by the leg.

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

In addition to adjusting equipment and machinery Crank handles are often used on boats to help them to load trailers. They are typically made of stainless steel, which is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Because of this, most boat crank handles are powder coated to protect them from damage and to make them easier to clean.

Replace the crank handle if it stops working or will not open the window. Look for the trim mounting screws within the window frame's track. If there aren't any, try to loosen the cover with a stiff putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb and frame and pulling it. If that doesn't help you, remove it and open the crank by unscrewing screws from the frame of the window.
