Types of uPVC Windows Handles It could take a long time to find an alternative window handle or lock that is compatible with the existing mechanisms. The first thing to know is the kind of handle you have. Then, you must know the step height, which is the distance that lies beneath the handle's nose to the frame or base where it is installed. You also need to know if there's a handing. Espag Espag is a handle that sits on uPVC doors and windows. These are the handles which are used to operate a multipoint locking system which locks a uPVC casement window or a timber casement when it's opened. These handles are also found on French Doors as well as other types of window frames. They are believed to be the most secure type of handle for double-glazed windows because they employ multiple locks. The handle is able to turn them all at once when it is used. The handles feature a metal spindle at the back that fits into a gearbox within the window to operate a set of multi-point locks situated around the perimeter of the window. These locks may take the form of roller cams, shootbolts or dead bolts or a combination. They are suitable for uPVC and aluminium windows. They are available in straight and cranked models according to the method by which your windows were constructed. There are many different types of handles made from espagnolette that are that are available in our online store. There are handles that are designed to be key operated for added security and others that don't have this feature. Handle designs also vary from a flat style to a ringed design. Some of the handles are available in a variety of spindle lengths too. This is important as the dimensions of your uPVC handle should be in line with the spindle you have placed on your window. If window handles planning to replace the handle on your uPVC window or installing new windows, you should be aware of the differences between the cockspur and espag handles. This will help you to choose the right replacement. Cockspur handles are generally installed on older types of double-glazed windows, while espag handles are common for modern houses with uPVC windows. The espag is distinct from the cockspur as it is fitted with an rod called a espagnolette (a flat strip of metal) that runs along the locking side the window. This is then fitted with round studs, called mushrooms that move up and down when the handle of an espagnolette is moved. The mushrooms are then stowed into a plate of metal called a keep that is attached to the window frame. Turn and tilt Tilt and Turn windows provide an array of European design and style with a greater functionality, enhanced security and energy efficiency. They are a great choice for homeowners and building projects looking to enhance the value of their homes or buildings. These windows have a unique dual function handle that allows the window to tilt to the side for ventilation, and then open like an entrance for cleaning. They also make an excellent escape point in case of emergency and are suitable for bedrooms as they can be opened them wide enough to allow for egress. Tilt-and-turn windows are easy to operate and look great on a variety homes and structures. They also have a range of features that aren't offered in other window types, including different opening configurations, bars for an older-style look, and a range of finishes and materials. They can also be spray painted to match any color or style you desire. When the window is closed it is secured and locked. When the handle is in an upward vertical position, the sash is tilted inward by about 20 degrees. This is a practical and comfortable method of allowing air to circulate because air circulates through the top gap. To turn the window handle, turn it until it's at 90 degrees to the lock position. The sash will then open upwards and is held in place by hinges on the bottom. This allows windows to be opened in a more expansive manner for ventilation and light. They are also a great option for families with pets or children as they can be opened at the bottom, but without allowing the child to fall out. The hinge at the bottom stops them from being opened too much, and so they cannot be broken by burglars. They are also a good option for those looking to reduce their heating bills and improve energy efficiency since they offer a high degree of thermal insulation. This is accomplished by using a multi chamber profile as well as triple or double glazing.
