UPVC window handles are available in a variety of designs, but they all use the same locking mechanism. To replace a uPVC handle, remove the top screw from the base of the window handle which will reveal two screws.

Then, take a measurement of the length of the spindle to make sure your new handle is a suitable replacement double glazed window. It's crucial to know what kind of handle you've got as there are many different sizes.

Inline Espagnolette Handles

Most double-glazed windows have Espagnolette handles that operate multi-point locks for improved security. They work by using the 7mm square spindle on the back of the handle that connects with a gearbox inside the window frame which moves multi-locks when turned. They are available in a range of styles, including cockspurs inline, key, and cockspur locking handles.

Cockspur Handles

Often seen typically on older uPVC and aluminium windows, the cockspur handle is a simple latch and catch arrangement. The handle's nose is connected to or placed into the catch, which is a wedge of plastic that is positioned on the frame of the window. Since the wedges come in various sizes, it is important that you know what step height you will need before purchasing a new handle. Generally, uPVC frames have a handle step of 9mm. aluminum frames usually have 21mm as the step size.

The cockspur handle can be locked with a key, adding security to your home. The lock is installed into the handle by using an appropriate spindle that fits in the hole in the handle (also called a backset). The spindle has a 7mm square cross-section and is used to either open or close the window.

If you are replacing a handle for a cockspur, it is worth ensuring that the replacement handle has the same height for steps as the original. Usually, this measurement is taken from the bottom of the spur on the handle to the underside of the handle's nose. This measurement is often called the stack height or backset, and it is vital that you have this information prior to purchasing a handle.

Cockspur handles are available in straight/universal, cranked or leftor right-handed models. This allows the handles to be fitted onto windows that open from the left or right and to allow the user easier access to the window.

There are many different styles and colors of cockspur handles, including white uPVC and brushed stainless steel. Choosing the best one for your windows will be based on your personal preferences and style, as well as how you would like the window to function.

Handles that can tilt and turn

Tilt and turn handles are a popular kind of handle that are typically found on double glazed windows in the UK. Both timber and upvc ones have these handles. The handle can be turned at any angle, up to 180 degrees. This allows the window to be opened fully into the room and also drop down to allow for ventilation. The handle is locked in this position and requires a key to unlock it whenever needed.

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

Another benefit of tilt and turn windows is that they are 4 to 8 times stronger than casement windows. This makes them ideal for larger windows and doors. The frames are also made of steel, that adds durability and strength.

The tilt and turn mechanism is also safer than that of casement windows, since the handle can be locked at any angle. This is especially important in areas with children as it keeps children from opening windows.

Tilt and turn windows are a favorite option for a lot of houses, since they can be utilized in various ways. They can be opened horizontally as a normal window or dropped down to the hopper style. This is an excellent option for those looking to improve airflow in their homes and can also assist with noise reduction.

They are a great addition to any type of home and complement both traditional and contemporary styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles are simple to use and offer fantastic views of the outside without blocking the glass. They are commonly used in casement windows, which hinge on the sides, or windows with awnings. They have the same mechanism as windows, with a 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 the mechanism of a crank window and handle are subject to a significant amount of wear and tear, which can cause the gears to strip and the handle to cease functioning or fall off the shaft of the operator. Monitoring the handle and operator mechanism regularly will ensure that they stay in good shape for many years to come.

A crank handle is composed of a mechanical shaft which rotates perpendicularly and is attached to an arm. The handle is operated manually by grabbing it and turning it in a circular motion similar to how you use the sharpener of a pencil. In certain instances, the handle can be operated by the leg.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. This hole allows the handle to be connected to equipment and machinery. The handle's arm also comes with a connecting rod which transforms the circular motion of the handle into a rotary or reciprocating motion that operates equipment and machines.

Boats are usually transported on trailers using crank handles, as well as the adjusting equipment and machinery. They're typically made of stainless steel that is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Most boat crank handles are powder coated to protect against damage and make them easier to clean.

If your crank handle isn't working or won't open the window, it might be time to replace it. Find the trim mounting screws inside the track of the window frame. If there are none, you can use a rigid putty blade to loosen the cover by sliding it between window jambs and the frame. If this doesn't work, you can remove it and get access to the crank by unbolting screws from the frame of the window.
