Replacement Handles For UPVC Windows

UPVC window handles are available in various styles, however all of them operate the same locking mechanism. To replace a uPVC window handle, glazier remove the top screw located at the base of the handle. This will reveal two additional screws.

Then, measure the spindle to ensure your new handle will fit. It is important to determine the kind of handle you have since there are various sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

Most double-glazed windows have Espagnolette handles that operate multi-point locks to increase security. They operate by virtue of a 7mm square spindle from the back of the handle that connects to a gearbox on the inside of the window frame that moves multi-locks as it is turned. They are available in a variety of styles, including cockspurs keys, inline and locking handles.

Our uPVC replacement handle kits are designed to make it easy to replace a damaged or faulty window handle made of espagnolette. These uPVC handle sets come packaged with a selection of spindle lengths that will fit the majority of applications. They also come with all of the fixing screws needed to fix them. These handles are also available with key-plugs which allow them to be changed from standard open/closed handles to egress or fire escape non locking handles (if used with the correct key plug).

Yale Sparta Inline Espag Handle is a different choice. It was designed to minimize aesthetic interference and has a lower height at the base. It is part of the suited hardware range and is available with a variety of finishes that meet the requirements of BS EN1670:2007 Grade 5. They have been tested for their endurance and are suitable for use in coastal environments as well as with acidic timbers. They can be used with cylinder-immobiliser inserts to lock keys when required.

Cockspur Handles

Often found on older uPVC and glazier aluminium windows the cockspur handles are a basic catch and latch. The handle's nose is closed onto or into the catch, which is a plastic wedge block that is affixed to the frame of the window. The wedges come in various sizes, so it is crucial to determine the step height you require prior to buying the replacement handle. As a general rule Upvc windows typically use a 21mm step size and aluminum frames typically have a 9mm handle step.

The cockspur handle is lockable with a key, adding security to your home. The lock is inserted into the handle by using the spindle which fits into the hole of the handle (also called a backset). The spindle is 7mm square and can be used to open or close the window.

If you are replacing a cockspur handle, it is important to make sure that the replacement handle has the same height for steps as the original. It is usually measured from the bottom of the spur on the handle to the underside of the nose of the handle. This measurement is often referred to as the stack height or backset. It is essential to know this information before placing an order for any handle.

Cockspur handles can be straight/universal or cranked and are available in left hand or right handed versions. This is to allow the handles to be installed on windows that open from the left or right and also to allow the user easier access to the window.

It is essential to determine whether or not your window needs a restrictor, which is designed to stop the handle being opened beyond a certain point. Generally, these are required for high-rise commercial buildings or flats due to security reasons. However, most domestic homes don't require them.

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

Handles that can tilt and turn

The UK is home to a wide range of double-glazed windows featuring tilt and turn handles. Both timber and upvc ones come with them. The handle can be rotated at any angle, up to 180 degrees. This allows the window to be opened fully into the room, and it can also be lowered to allow for ventilation. The handle is locked in this position, which requires a key to unlock the handle when it is required to open it.

This type of handle is extremely easy to replace, as it has just one handle instead of a number of smaller ones. This reduces the appearance of the handle, and is more in line with contemporary minimalist design trends. In addition to this they are also much easier to clean than casement windows as the window opens inwards and can be cleaned on both sides.

They are also 4 to 8 times stronger than a conventional casement window. This makes them ideal for larger windows as well as doors. The frames are made from steel cores, which provides additional strength and durability.

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 that have children, as it prevents them from accidentally opening windows.

Tilt and turn windows are a popular choice for many houses, since they can be used in many ways. They can be opened horizontally like a normal window, or lowered to the style of a hopper. This is an excellent option for those looking to improve airflow and decrease the sound in their home. The glass is easily removed, making them easy to clean and maintain. They are available in a variety of sizes and colors. They are perfect for any home and will complement both traditional and contemporary styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles are simple to use and offer an excellent view of the outside without blocking the glass. They are typically used in casement windows, which hinge on the side or windows with awnings. They have an mechanism similar to a window bar, and a linkage arm that is used to support the window sash. The window sash opens or closes when you turn the handle clockwise. The mechanism of the crank window, unlike other handles, is frequently subjected to much wear and tear. This could result in the handle's gears to break or fall off the operator shaft. By inspecting the crank handle and the mechanism of the operator regularly will ensure that they are in good condition for many years to come.

A crank handle consists of an arm made of metal that is attached to a perpendicularly rotating shaft. The handle is rotated in a circular manner by grasping it and rotating it, similar to how you would operate a sharpener. In some applications, the handle may be leg-operated.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. This hole allows it to connect to equipment and machinery. The handle's arm also comes with a connecting rod which transforms the circular motion of the handle into rotary or reciprocating motion that operates machines and equipment.

In addition to adjusting machinery and equipment, crank handles are commonly used on boats to aid them to load trailers. They are typically made of stainless steel that is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. This is why the majority of boat crank handles are powder coated to protect them from damage and to make them easier to clean.

If your crank handle isn't working or isn't able to open the window, it might be time to replace it. Before doing so, look for screws that attach to the trim inside the window frame's track for screen. If there aren't any, try to loosen the cover using a strong putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb as well as the frame and pulling on it. If that doesn't work, you can take off the cover and get access to the crank mechanism by removing the screws inside the window frame.
