Choosing uPVC Replacement Window Handles

Window handles are an essential element of your uPVC windows and should be matched to the existing frame. The most important thing is the spindle's length, which determines whether your new uPVC handle will fit.

Use the table below as a quick reference to measure the length of the spindle of your uPVC handle. This will ensure you order the correct replacement window handle for your double glazed window.

Espag Handle

Espag handles are most commonly found on Upvc (but they're also found in aluminium and timber). The handles feature a square spindle which extends from the back of the handle and locks into the multi-point locking mechanism on the window. The handle is used to operate the locking system around the window.

Window handles made of Espag are available in many different styles and functions. Some feature an option to push a button for locking closed, and key-locking. (And nonlocking against fire in the event of need.) Many reach the Secure by Design specification to add an extra layer of security. They also come with a range of different lengths of spindles, which can be adjusted using spindle sleeves that decrease the size of the protruding spindle.

The espagnolette handles we offer have been tested by Yale to ensure that they meet the strict standards you would expect from a brand and are suitable for timber, upvc and aluminium windows. We have a range of colours, and can match the handle with your hinges.

Another important aspect of espagnolette handles is their step height. This is the distance between the top of the handle and the point at which it rests on the frame. It's crucial to have this in order to ensure a tight and secure fit. The majority of our handles are 43mm apart between the screw hole centres, which is industry standard.

You can pick between straight or Cranked handles. Cranked handles can be used in situations where the espagnolette handle is located close to the frame's edge. They give you more room to open the window.

Our upvc replacement handle range features a wide variety of finishes, styles and colors that will complement your home's decor, including polished chrome, satin nickel and antique brass. Some of our products even have a soft-close feature to minimize the sound of windows closing.

Cockspur Handle

The Cockspur Window Handle was created for fabricators who want to provide their customers with an elegant and premium design. These handles can be used with either uPVC or aluminium windows and are operated by a spur on the handle that locks over the edge of the frame to secure the window. The window handle is lockable, so that it will only open when it is pushed. This gives you additional security. The handle is available in five different finishes, both left and right handed. This allows the fabricators to provide more windows.

The cockspur window handle is supplied with three packing pieces of different thicknesses. This allows them to be adjusted to a range of backset sizes. Each piece fits snugly under the handle nose and can be removed or incorporated into the dimensions of the step in order to achieve a different backset, ranging from 9mm to 21mm. The handle is available in left or right handed versions and both either a straight or curly nose design.

When looking for a replacement upvc door handles for your existing handles for cockspurs, it is important to measure the current handle's height to ensure that the new handle is appropriate for the position. Having the incorrect handle can cause a number of problems such as the inability to shut the window. This can be a problem for homeowners and cause unnecessary stress.

A cockspur is a handle that is found on older Old upvc window Handles or timber windows. These handles do not have windows with integrated locks unlike Espag handles which are used on modern windows. They also come with a shootbolt or Espagnolette bar lock.

The espagnolette (often reduced to 'espag') handle is the most common handle that is found on new uPVC casement windows. The Yale Encloser locking mechanism is activated when you turn the espagnolette handles. This is a lot safer than the traditional cockspur handle or the standard British handle. This is because the espagnolette handle turns multiple locks to secure the window frame.

Turn and Tilt Handle

These windows are popular with people who want to increase ventilation in their home as well as add a layer of security. Like their name suggests they have a tilt and turn feature that permits them to turn at 90 degrees to provide a small opening or drop down to a hopper style for complete ventilation. The dual functionality gives them an attractive appearance which can enhance the appeal of your double glazed windows.

Tilt and turn windows tend to be more complex compared to other styles of double glazed window handle glazed windows, which increases their cost as they require more components and a lot of labor during installation. These windows are worth the investment as they can add value and provide numerous advantages to your home.

One of the main benefits is that they allow you to clean windows from inside without using external ladders. This is ideal for those who live high up in flats or buildings, since it doesn't require you to risk falling down from an elevated position. Tilt-and turn windows provide additional security, as they are locked when they are in a tilted state. This means that burglars can't open them from inside.

Most often, you'll see these handles on European style windows, specifically those in Germany, but you can also have them installed in UK homes. The uPVC handle replacement is usually one that is based on a spindle. It has a 7mm spindle that is available in sizes of 38mm, 44mm and 32mm.

It can only be opened after the window is locked in a closed position or tilted.

When replacing a uPVC tilt and turn window handle, you must first take the handle off the window using the screwdriver. The screws are usually concealed behind a sprung-loaded backplate.

This is typically 43mm from the centre to the centre. Once you've got your measurement, you can order the proper size patio door handle with lock for your uPVC window.

Aluminium Handle

Aluminum handles are usually comprised of weatherproof and corrosion-resistant alloys. They are strong enough to meet the requirements of the construction industry.
