Replacement Handles For UPVC Windows

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

Then, take a measurement of the spindle to make sure the new handle is suitable. It is important to determine what kind of handle you have as there are many different sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

Espagnolette handles are present on the majority of modern double glazing window replacement-glazed windows and feature multi-point locks that offer improved security. The handle is controlled by a 7mm square spindle that connects to a gearbox inside the frame of the window. The gearbox rotates the multi-locks when the handle is turned. They are available in a variety of designs, including cockspur keys, inline and locking handles.

Cockspur Handles

Cockspur handles, often found on older uPVC or aluminium doors and windows they are a simple latch and catch arrangement. The handle's nose slides into or into the catch which is a plastic wedge block mounted on the window frame. The wedges are available in a variety of sizes, so it is important to know what size of step you need prior to purchasing an alternative handle. In general, uPVC windows tend to have a step size of 21mm and aluminium frames usually come with a handle step of 9mm.

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 measures 7mm square and can be used either to open or close the window.

If you are replacing a handle for a cockspur, it is worth ensuring that the replacement has the same step height as the original. This is usually measured from the base spur of the handle and ends at the underside of handle nose. This measurement can be referred to as the stack height or the backset. It is essential to know this information prior to purchasing any handle.

Cockspur handles can be straight/universal or cranked, and are available in left or right handed versions. This permits the handles to be mounted on either the right or left opening windows and gives the operator easier access.

It is essential to determine whether or not your window requires a restrictor, which is designed to stop the handle being opened past a certain level. They are typically required for high-rise buildings or commercial buildings for safety reasons. However, the majority of domestic homes don't require them.

There are a variety of styles and colors of cockspur handles, including white uPVC and brushed stainless steel. The best cockspur handle for your windows depends on your style and preference and the way you want the window to function.

Handles that 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 are found on both timber and upvc windows. The handle is usually set at 90 degrees, but it can also be turned at 180 degrees. This lets the window be opened fully into the room and be lowered to allow for ventilation. The handle is locked into this position and requires the use of a key to unlock it in the event of a need.

This kind of handle can be easily changed, since it only has one large handle and not multiple smaller ones. This reduces the overall look of 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 are also made of steel, which increases the durability and strength.

The tilt and turn mechanism is also safer than a casement window, as the handle can be locked at any angle. This is especially crucial in areas where children are present, as it prevents them from accidentally opening the window.

Many homes opt for tilt and turn windows due to the fact that they can be used in various ways. They can be opened horizontally, like a regular window, or lowered to the style of a hopper. This is a great choice for those looking to increase airflow and lessen the noise that surrounds their home. They are also easy to clean and maintain as the glass is easily removed. They are available in a variety of sizes and colours. These windows can be used in any house, and can complement both traditional and modern styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles require minimal effort to open and permit a stunning view of the outside without obstructing the glass. They are typically used in casement windows, that hinge on the side, or windows with awnings. They are equipped with a mechanism similar to a window bar and linkage arm that supports the window sash which opens or closes by cranking the handle in a clockwise direction. In contrast to other types of handles, a crank window's mechanism and casement handle are subject to wear and tear that could cause the gears to strip and the handle to cease working or fall off of the shaft of the operator. Inspecting both the crank handle and operator mechanism regularly will ensure that they remain in good shape for many years to be.

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

The base of a crank handle is hollow. It's this hole that allows it to be connected to machinery and equipment. The handle's arm also comes with a connecting rod which converts the circular motion of the handle into a rotary or reciprocating motion, which is used to operate equipment and machines.

Boats are usually loaded onto trailers with crank handles, in addition to machines and equipment that can be adjusted. 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 coated with powder to protect them from rust and to make them easier to clean.

Replace your crank handle if it ceases to function or does not allow you to open the window. Look for trim mounting screws in the track of the window frame. If there aren't any, try to loosen the casement cover with a stiff putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb and the frame and pulling on it. If this doesn't work you, remove it and get access to the crank by removing screws from the frame of the window.
