Espag

Espag handles are a type of multipoint locks that are suitable for casement windows like uPVC or wooden double glazing. They come with seven millimetre square spindles that can be fitted into the gearbox on the window made of uPVC. When the handle is turned, it operates a series of locks around the perimeter of the window. Espag handles, also referred as shootbolts, provide more security than the single point lock 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 are also ergonomic handles that improve the appearance and feel of your window as well as the handle.

You will need to measure the spindle size from the base of your uPVC handle if you want to purchase the correct replacement. This measurement, referred to as the step height will help you select the ideal uPVC window handle for your home.

If you require to remove screws that secure the handle, use pliers or a screwdriver. Once this is done, you will need to take the handle apart by removing the screw or pins that hold the spindle before pulling it away from the window.

When you have the handle removed, you will then be capable of accessing the locking mechanism inside the frame of the window and take out the wedge block for cockspur which is placed next to the handle, allowing the window to open. The replacement uPVC handles you ordered will be able to slide onto the cockspur block, and then into handle spindle to allow the window to open again. If you want to be sure that your uPVC handles are securely secured you should replace the cockspur block with a brand new one.

Cockspur

Cockspur handles are generally found on older uPVC and aluminium windows. The handle is closed and rotates into a wedge-shaped plastic catch. (Not to be confused with timber latches which are also covered in this section.) They can be locked or non-lockable. They are available in a variety of different nose sizes to match the existing frame.

The handle locks by the slender spur (little triangle bit) pulling up against a wedge made of plastic which is attached to the frame. They are typically one-way handles, however a deadlock with a locking mechanism can be added to give additional security.

The replacement handles for cockspurs are easy to install. All you need is the correct backset and a brand new set (supplied). The backset is the distance between the baseplate of the window to the underside of the nose of the handle. Aluminium window frames are usually 9mm wide, whereas UPVC is 21mm wide. There are many other variations however, so it is crucial to measure before buying the handle (see video below for how).

The spindle or, in certain cases, the entire handle assembly can be removed by removing the handle. The replacement handle is then fixed with a pair of pozidrivs screws. The pozidriv screws are available in a brass or zinc finish to match the existing hardware. There is also the possibility of a self-locking version.

This cockspur handle is easy to install and is perfect for replacing or repairing old uPVC Windows. They are an universal design, making them suitable for all profiles and backsets. Each handle is equipped with three packers, each of a different thickness. These are neatly installed on the underside of handles and can be combined to create backsets as small as 9, 13mm, or as big as 21mm. These handles are available in left and right-handed versions and in lockable and nonlockable models. They are also available in 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, but it is only now starting to gain popularity in the American market. They combine the benefits of three different window types into one - tilt, pivot, and in-swing. They are perfect for older homes as they provide more ventilation than conventional windows.

When tilt and turn windows are closed, they will lock as any other fixed window. But, 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 will tilt in to allow air exchange through the space at the top of the frame. This is a great method to allow air circulation without having to open the large potentially dangerous window.

If the handle is turned a further 90or 180 degrees the sash will be fully opened like a door. This allows for complete air exchange which is especially useful in rooms with a lot of draft or where smoke or other smells can build up. This allows you to easily clean the glass's outside, as you can do it from inside your home. This is a task that often requires a lot of risk.

Tilt and turn windows are extremely secure. When locked in a closed position, they are difficult to open from the outside and they feature double seals that prevent rainwater from getting into the home when in the tilted in-swing position. This feature is particularly beneficial for older homes where intruders tend to target traditional windows that can be opened using side hinges.

Spade

There are a variety of handles that can be put in on windows with double-glazed upvc. There are two primary kinds of handles: Cockspur and Espag. Other choices include tilt and turn handles as well as 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 preferences and the type of window you have.

You must know the way the handle you have currently is attached to the frame in order to select the correct replacement Upvc handle. This is called handing and is an essential piece of information, especially when buying online as some handles aren't suitable for all windows. Certain cockspur handles, as an instance, are angled whereas others are straight and can turn left or right. It is also important to be aware of what the spindle length is, which is the distance from the base of the handle to the head of the handle.

Another important part of choosing the right handle is knowing whether your windows need a restrictor or not. These are typically used in high-rise flats or commercial buildings, but are not required for homes used by the homeowner. Lastly, you should also take into consideration step height, which is the distance from the bottom of the screw plate to the apex of the handle.

Spade comes from Old English spadu, spaedu or spada and has been translated into many languages, including German spaten and Low German spathen. In the 1920s during the Harlem Renaissance in New York City spade began to be used as a sexist term for black people. Since the time spade has been a symbol of African American pride and heritage.

It is crucial to select the correct size when replacing a handle that is Cadenza-style. The handles are available in angled and straight versions which differ by a few millimetres. The handle head can also change between a D and a T-shaped shape, or even have no handles at all.
