Inline Espagnolette Handles

Espagnolette handles are present on the majority of modern double-glazed windows and feature multi-point locks that offer improved security.

Cockspur Handles

Commonly found on older uPVC and aluminium windows cockspur handles are a simple latch and catch arrangement. The handle nose is attached to or inserted into the catch which is a wedge block made of plastic that is positioned on the window replacement cost frame. Because the wedges are available in different sizes, it is essential to know the step height to purchase before buying the new handle. In general, uPVC windows tend to utilize a 21mm step and aluminium frames usually have a 9mm handle step.

The cockspur handle can be locked with a key, providing security to your home. The lock is installed inside the handle using an appropriate spindle that fits in the hole of the handle (also called a backset). The spindle measures 7mm square and can be used either to open or close the window.

If you are replacing a cockspur handle it is worth ensuring that the replacement has the same step height as the original. It is typically measured from the base spur of the handle to the underside of handle nose. This measurement can be referred to as the stack height or backset. It is crucial to know this information before purchasing any handle.

Cockspur handles are available as straight/universal, cranked or leftor right-handed models. This allows the handles to be placed on the right or left opening windows and gives the operator more ease of use.

Check if your window needs a restrictor. This is designed to prevent the handle from opening beyond a certain amount. Generally, they are required for high-rise flats or commercial properties for safety reasons. However, the majority of domestic homes don't require these.

There are many different styles and colours of the cockspur handle. These include stainless steel with brushed finishes and white uPVC options. The best cockspur handle to use for your windows will depend on your personal style and taste as well as how you want your window to function.

Tilt and Turn Handles

Tilt and turn handles are a popular style of handle which is typically seen on double glazed windows in the UK. Both timber and upvc ones come with them. The handle can be rotated at any angle, even 180 degrees. This allows the window replacement cost to be opened fully into the room and be lowered to allow to let in air. The handle is locked in this position, requiring a key to unlock the handle when it is needed to open it.

This kind of handle is able to be replaced, as it has only one large handle, not a number of smaller ones. This reduces the appearance of the handle, and is more in line with contemporary minimalist design trends. Additionally they are much simpler to clean than casement windows, as the window opens inwards and can be cleaned on both sides.

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

The tilt-and-turn mechanism is more secure than a casement because the handle is locked in any position. This is especially crucial in areas where children could live, since it will keep children from opening the window.

Many homes choose tilt and turn windows due to the fact that they can be used in different ways. They can be opened horizontally like windows that are regular, lowered down in the hopper style to allow for ventilation, or tilted inwards for cleaning and maintenance. This is a great choice for those looking to increase the airflow inside their home. They can also assist with noise reduction. The 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 house and can be paired with both contemporary and traditional styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles require little effort to open, and allow for a spectacular view of the outdoors without obstructing the glass. They are typically employed in casement windows, which hinge on the sides, or windows with awnings. They have an mechanism similar to a window bar, and linkage arm, that is used to support the window sash. The window sash can be opened or closed when you turn the handle clockwise. Contrary to other kinds 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 functioning or fall off the shaft of the operator. Regularly inspecting the crank handle and the operator mechanism will ensure that they are in good condition for many years.

A crank handle is composed of a mechanical shaft that rotates perpendicularly and is connected to an arm. The arm is turned in a circular direction by grasping it and rotating it in the same way that you operate a sharpener. In certain instances, the handle can be operated by the leg.

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

In addition to adjusting equipment and machinery, crank handles are commonly used on boats to aid them to load trailers. They're typically made of stainless steel, which is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Due to this, the majority of boat crank handles are powder coated to shield them from rust and to make them easier to clean.

Replace the crank handle if it ceases to function or does not open the window. Look for trim mounting screws in the window frame's track. If there are none to be found, you can use a rigid putty blade to loosen the cover by sliding it between 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.
