Inline Espagnolette Handles

Most double-glazed windows have Espagnolette handles which operate multi-point locks to provide greater security. They operate by virtue of a 7mm square spindle from the back of the handle, which connects to a gearbox on the inside of the window frame, which turns multi-lock mushrooms when turned. They are available in a variety of styles, including cockspurs, inline, and key locking handles.

Cockspur Handles

Cockspur handles are commonly found on older uPVC or aluminium windows and doors, are a simple latch-and-catch arrangement. The handle's nose is connected to or inserted into the catch which is a wedge block of plastic, which is attached to the frame of the window. The wedges come in various sizes, so it is crucial to determine the step height you need before purchasing a replacement handle. Typically, uPVC frames come with a handle step of 9mm, while aluminium frames tend to use a step height of 21mm.

Tilt and Turn Handles

Tilt and turn handles are a very popular type of handle, which are commonly seen on double-glazed windows in the UK. Both timber and upvc ones come with these handles. The handle can be rotated at any angle, even 180 degrees. This allows the window open into the room fully, and also to lower it for ventilation. The handle is locked into this position and requires an unlocking key when needed.

This type of handle is easily replaced, as it has only one large handle, and not several smaller ones. This improves the overall appearance of the handle and is more in line with the modern minimalistic design trends. They are also cleaner since they open inwards.

Another advantage 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 constructed from steel cores that adds durability and strength.

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

They can be opened horizontally, just like a regular window, dropped down in a hopper fashion to allow for ventilation, or tilted inwards to allow for cleaning and maintenance. This is a great option for those looking to improve the airflow in their home and can also assist with noise reduction. The glass is easily removed, making them easy to clean and maintain.

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 hinge on the side, or awning windows. They feature a mechanism that is similar to a window bar, and linkage arm, that is used to support the window sash. The window sash opens or closes when you crank the handle clockwise. The crank window's mechanism unlike other handles is frequently subjected to an extensive amount of wear and replacement handles for upvc windows tear. This can result in the handle's gears to break or fall off the shaft that controls the operator. Regularly checking the handle of the crank and the operator mechanism will ensure that they stay in good condition for many years.

A crank handle consists of a mechanical shaft that rotates perpendicularly and is connected to an arm. The arm is turned in a circular direction by grabbing it and turning it in the same way that you operate a sharpener. In some cases the handle may be operated by the leg.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. It's this hollow that allows it to be connected to equipment and machinery. The handle's arm is equipped with 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 often used on boats to help them to load trailers. They are typically made from stainless steel, which is resistant against corrosion in marine environments. This is why the majority of boat crank handles are coated with powder to protect them from rust and to make them easier to clean.

If your crank handle has stopped functioning or isn't opening the window, it could be time to replace it. Look for trim mounting screws in the window frame's track. If there aren't any, you can try to loosen the cover using a strong putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb and the frame and pulling on it. If that doesn't work you, remove it and get access to the crank by unbolting screws from the frame of the window.
