Inline Espagnolette Handles

Most double-glazed windows have Espagnolette handles that operate multi-point locks to provide greater security. They work by using a 7mm square spindle at the back of the handle which connects to a gearbox on the inside of the window frame that moves multi-lock mushrooms when they are turned. They are available in a range of styles, including cockspur keys, inline and locking handles.

Cockspur Handles

Cockspur handles, which are commonly found on older uPVC or aluminum doors and windows they are a simple latch and catch arrangement. The handle nose is attached to or put into the catch, which is a wedge block of plastic, which is attached to the frame of the window. As the wedges are available in different sizes, it is essential that you know what step height to purchase before buying the new handle. Typically, uPVC frames have a handle step of 9mm, while aluminium frames tend to use 21mm as the step size.

A cockspur handle is locked using a key, providing added security for your home. The lock is fitted into the handle by spindles, which fit into the handle through the hole in the lock (also called a backset). The spindle is 7mm square and can be used either to open or close the window.

It is important to ensure that the new cockspur handle has the same height of the original. This is usually measured from the base spur of the handle to underside of handle nose. This measurement can be referred to as the stack height or the backset. It is essential to know this information before ordering any handle.

Cockspur handles are available in straight/universal, cranked, left- or right-handed versions. This allows the handles to be placed on the either the right or left opening window and allows the operator to have easier access.

It is crucial to determine whether or not your window is required to have a restrictor that is designed to prevent the handle from being opened past a certain level.

There are a variety of styles and colors of cockspur handles including white uPVC and brushed steel. The ideal cockspur handle for your windows is determined by your personal style and taste as well as how you want the window to work.

Handles that can tilt and turn

The UK is home to a variety of double-glazed windows with tilt and turn handles. They are found on both timber and upvc windows. The handle can be rotated at any angle, even 180 degrees. This lets the window be fully opened into the room and can be lowered to allow for ventilation. The handle is locked into this position and requires an unlocking key whenever needed.

This kind of handle is extremely easy to replace, as it has just one handle instead of a number of smaller ones. This can reduce the overall appearance of the handle and is more in keeping with modern minimalistic design trends. In addition, they are much easier to clean than casement windows because the window opens up inwards and can be cleaned on both sides.

Another advantage of tilt and turn windows is that they are 4 to 8 times stronger than casement windows. This makes them perfect for larger windows and doors. The frames also feature a steel core that adds durability and strength.

The tilt and turn mechanism is also safer than the casement window, because the handle can be locked at any angle. This is especially important in areas with children, as it prevents children from opening the window.

Tilt and turn windows are a popular option for a lot of houses, since they can be utilized in many ways. They can be opened horizontally like windows, lowered down in a hopper-style for ventilation or tilted inwards for cleaning and maintenance. This is a great choice for those looking to increase airflow and reduce the sound in their home. Glass is easily removed, making them easy to clean and maintain. These windows are available in various sizes and colors. They are perfect for any house and can be paired with both traditional and contemporary styles.

Crank Handles

Crank handles require minimal effort to open, and permit a stunning view of the outdoors without blocking the glass replacement in windows. They're commonly employed in casement windows, which are hinged on the side, or awning windows. They have the same mechanism as the window bar and linkage arm that supports the window sash, which can be opened or closed by turning the handle in the clockwise direction. Unlike other types of handles that are geared towards windows, a crank window's mechanism and handle are subject to wear and tear, which can cause the gears to strip and the handle to stop working or fall off the shaft of the operator. Monitoring the handle and the operator mechanism regularly will ensure that they stay in good condition for many years to come.

A crank handle consists of a mechanical shaft which rotates perpendicularly and is connected to an arm. The arm is rotated in a circular motion by grabbing it and turning it, similar to how you operate a sharpener. In certain applications the handle can be operated by a leg.

The base of a crank handle is hollow. This allows the handle to be connected to machinery and equipment. 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 The crank handles are also commonly used on boats to help them load onto trailers. They are typically made of stainless steel, which is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Most boat crank handles are coated in powder to guard against damage and make them easier to clean.

Replace the crank handle in the event that it stops working or will not allow you to open the window. Look for the trim mounting screws within the window frame's track. If there are none to be found, you can use a stiff putty blade to open the cover by sliding it between window jambs and the frame. If that doesn't work, you can remove it and open the crank by unscrewing screws in the window frame.
