Replacement Handles For UPVC Windows

UPVC window handles are available in a variety of styles, however they all use 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 screws.

Then, take measurements of the spindle to ensure the new handle is suitable. It is important to identify the kind of handle you currently have because there are a variety of sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

Most double-glazed windows come with Espagnolette handles which operate multi-point locks to increase security. They work by using the 7mm square spindle on the back of the handle which connects to a gearbox inside the window frame which moves multi-locks when they are turned. They come in a variety of designs comprising cranked, inline key locking and cockspur handle, and they can also be provided as a set to replace a single handle that is broken or worn out.

Our uPVC replacement handle kits are designed to make it simple to replace a damaged or broken window handle with a espagnolette. These uPVC handle sets are packaged with a range of spindle lengths suitable for most applications and have all fixing screws required for installation included. These handles are also available with key-plugs which allow them to change from the standard open/closed handles to fire escape or egress locking handles (if when used with the correct key plug).

Cockspur Handles

Most often seen often on older uPVC and aluminium windows the cockspur handles are a basic latch and catch arrangement. The handle's nose is connected to or inserted into the catch which is a wedge block of plastic that is positioned on the frame of the window. The wedges come in various sizes, so it's important to know what size of step you need prior to buying an alternative handle. Typically, uPVC frames come with a handle step of 9mm and aluminum frames typically have 21mm as the step size.

A cockspur handle is locked using a key, which provides additional security for your home. The lock is fitted to the handle with a spindle, which fits into the handle through the hole in the lock (also called a backset). The spindle measures 7mm square and can be used to open or close the window.

It is essential to ensure that the new cockspur handle has the same height of 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 and it is essential to know this information before ordering a handle.

Cockspur handles can be straight/universal or cranked and are available in left hand or right handed versions. This allows the handles to be positioned on windows that open to the left or right, and to give the operator 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 past a certain level. Generally speaking, they are required for high-rise flats or commercial properties for safety reasons. However, most domestic homes do not require them.

There are many different styles and colors of cockspur handles including stainless steel and white uPVC steel. The best cockspur handle to use for your windows depends on your style and preference and the way you want the window to work.

Tilt and Turn Handles

The UK is home to many double-glazed windows featuring tilt and turn handles. Both upvc windows and timber ones have them. The handle is usually set at 90 degrees, but it can also be rotated at 180 degrees. This lets the window be opened fully into the room and be lowered to allow to let in air. The handle is locked in this position and requires the use of a key to unlock it whenever needed.

Replacement-Windows-150x150.jpgThis kind of handle can be easily replaced since it only has one large handle and not multiple smaller ones. This makes it less obvious the handle and is more in line with modern minimalistic design trends. In addition they are much simpler to clean than casement windows since the window is able to open to the inside and can be cleaned on both sides.

Another benefit of tilt and turn windows is that they are 4 - 8 times stronger than casement windows. This makes them ideal for larger windows and doors. The frames also have a steel core which increases the durability and strength.

The tilt and turn mechanism is also safer than that of a casement window, as the handle can be locked at any angle. This is particularly important in areas where children could reside, as it will stop children from opening the window.

Many homes opt to tilt and turn windows because they can be used in various ways. They can be opened horizontally as windows, lowered down in a hopper-style for ventilation or tilted inwards for cleaning and maintenance. This is a great option for those who want to increase airflow and reduce noise in their home. They are also easy to clean and maintain, since the glass is removed. These windows are available in a wide range of sizes and colors. These windows are suitable for any home, and complement both modern and traditional styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles require minimal effort to open and provide a stunning view of the outdoors without blocking the glass. They're commonly employed in casement windows, which are hinged on the side or awning windows. They feature a mechanism similar to a window bar and linkage arm that supports the window replacement glass sash, which opens or closes by cranking the handle in a clockwise direction. Contrary to other kinds of handles, a crank window's mechanism and handle are often subjected to a significant amount of wear and tear, which can cause the gears to strip and the handle to cease working or fall off the shaft of the operator. Inspecting both the crank handle and the operator mechanism regularly will ensure that they stay in good condition for many years to be.

A crank handle is made up of a mechanical shaft which rotates perpendicularly, and is attached to an arm. The arm is turned in a circular manner by gripping and rotating it in the same way that you operate a sharpener. In certain applications the handle can be operated via a leg.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. It's this hole that allows it to connect to machinery and equipment. The handle's arm has an attaching bar that converts the circular motion from the handle into reciprocating and rotary motions to operate machines and equipment.

Boats are often transported on trailers using crank handles, in addition to the adjusting equipment and machinery. They are typically made of stainless steel which 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 also to make them easier to clean.

Replace the crank handle when it ceases to function or does not open the window. Before you do that check for the trim mounting screws within the frame's screen track. If there's none then you can use a stiff putty blade to loosen the cover by sliding it between the window jambs and the frame. If that doesn't work then you can take it off and open the crank by removing screws inside the window frame.
