Replacement Upvc Window Handles
The majority of replacement windows handles made of upvc come with everything you require. However should you find that your old handle was fixed by screws or pins, they'll need to be removed. Remove the'snap-in' cover at the base of your handle.
You'll need to identify what type of window lock and handle you're replacing. This is crucial!
Espag
Espag handles are a type of multipoint locks that are designed to fit on casement windows such as uPVC or wooden double glazing. The handle has a 7mm square shaft that fits inside a gearbox on the uPVC window. When the handle is turned it will activate a series of locks around the window's perimeter. Espag handles, also referred to as shootbolts, provide more security than the single point locks found on older window frames.
There are a variety of choices available with cranked and inline handles that can be operated with either the left or right hand. There is also a range of ergonomically designed handles that are made to enhance the feel of the handle and how it looks on your windows.
If you're looking to replace your existing uPVC window handle with an espag handle, you will need to identify the size of the spindle that is fitted and measure this from the base of the handle in order to get the right replacement. This measurement is known as step height and will help you find the perfect uPVC handle for your home.
If you require to remove screws that hold the handle, you can use the screwdriver or pliers. After you have removed the screws or pins that secure the spindle you can take it apart to disassemble the handle.
After removing the handle you can access the locking mechanism in the frame of the windows and remove the cockspur block connected to the handle. This will allow the window to be opened. The new uPVC window handles you have purchased should be able to fit on the cockspur wedge block and then into the handle spindle, allowing the window to open once again. If you'd like to make sure that your uPVC handles are secure you should replace the cockspur block an entirely new one.
Cockspur
Cockspur handles are typically found on older uPVC and aluminium windows. The handle closes and turns onto a wedge-shaped plastic receiver catch. (Not to be confused with timber latches, which are also covered in this section.) The handles are available in lockable and nonlockable versions. They are available in various nose heights that can be adjusted to the frame.
The handle locks using the small spur (little triangle bit) pulling against a plastic wedge which is attached to the frame. They are typically one-way handles, however the deadlock cylinder with a locking mechanism can be fitted for additional security.
As with Espag handles, replacement handles for cockspur handles are easy to install all you need is a new set of screws (supplied) and the correct backset. The backset is measured from the baseplate to the underside of the nose of the handle. Aluminium window frames are usually 9mm wide, while UPVC is 21mm wide. There are a variety of other options though so it is important to measure before purchasing the handle (see video below for how).
This kind of window handle can be substituted by simply removing the existing handle and taking off the spindle, or in certain cases the whole handle assembly. The new handle is fixed using a pair pozidrivs screws. The pozidriv screws come in zinc or brass finishes to match the existing hardware, and there is the option of a self-locking version.
This cockspur handle is simple to install and is perfect to replace or repair old uPVC Windows. They feature an universal design, making them suitable for all profiles and backsets. Each handle comes with three packers of varying thickness. They are fitted to the underside of the handle nose and can be arranged in a variety of ways to get backsets of 9-13mm, 17mm and 21mm. They are available in left and right handed versions, and are available with nonlockable or lockable models, with a variety of nose heights.
Turn and tilt
The most prestigious European window style of tilt and turn has been popular in Europe for a long time, however it's only just beginning to take off in the American market. They combine the benefits of three window types into one - tilt, pivot, and in-swing. They are great for older homes as they provide more ventilation than standard windows.
When in the closed position tilt and turn windows lock as the normal fixed window. However, by turning the handle 90@ or 180@ (depending on the kind of tilt and turn window) the window sash will open inwards and the window can be tilted in order to allow air circulation through the opening at the top of the frame. This is a great option for ventilation without the need to open a large window which could pose a security danger if not properly secured when opening.
The sash is also able to be opened fully by turning the handle 90@ or 180@. This allows for full air exchange which is especially beneficial for draughty houses or rooms where smoke or other odors can accumulate. It also makes cleaning the outside of the glass much simpler because it can be done inside the home - a job that usually requires ladders that are a bit shaky.
Tilt-and-turn windows are also secure. They are extremely difficult to open if locked in the closed position. They also feature double seals that keep rainwater out of your home when it is in the tilted position or swing. This feature is particularly beneficial for older homes where intruders tend to target windows that can be opened using side hinges.
Spade
There are many different kinds of handles that can be installed on double-glazed windows made of upvc. There are two main types of handles: Cockspur and Espag. Other options include tilt and turn handles, spade or blade handles as well as monkey tail handles and a variety of other kinds. The kind of handle you pick will depend on your preference and the kind of windows you have.
In order to choose the correct replacement windows for your window handle, you have to know how your existing handle is attached to the frame. This is known as handing. It is a vital aspect to know, particularly when purchasing online since some handle variations don't fit all windows. For example, some cockspur handles are angled, while others are straight and either turn left or right. You will also need the spindle size, which is the distance between the base of the handle and the handle's head.
Another important part of choosing the right handle is determining whether your windows require a restrictor or not. They are generally used in high-rise flats or commercial structures, but are not a requirement for homes used by the homeowner. Lastly, you should also think about step height, which is the distance from the top of the screw plate to the apex of the handle.
The word spade comes from Old English spadu or spaedu and has been translated in several languages including German spaten and Low German Spathen. During the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s in New York City the word spade was used to denigrate black people. The term has since come to prominence in pop culture and is a widely-respected symbol of African American heritage and pride.
It is important to get the right size when replacing a handle that is Cadenza-style. The handles are available in both angled and straight versions which differ by a few millimetres. The handle head may change between a D and a T shape, or even have no handles at all.
