Replacement Handles For Windows
Double-glazed windows are a common feature. As time passes, they may become rusty or worn down.
To replace a UPVC window handle you need to know the spindle length of the handle you have currently and also the fixings. The best way to determine this is to examine the base of your old handle.
Handle
Over time, uPVC window handles and locks can become damaged due to wear and tear, accidental or intentional damage. It can be that the lock or handle becomes difficult to close or open, or that they are not even locked. It could be tempting to replace the entire window unit if this occurs, but it's not always required. Most of the time, it's the case that a replacement handle or lock is sufficient.
The most common kind of uPVC window handle is the espagnolette style. The handle is equipped with an outer spindle that extends out of the handle. It is inserted into a gearbox which operates the multipoint locking system within the window. It is crucial to match the right handle and lock to your windows in order to ensure that they work correctly, which is why we have a wide range of replacement handles for all kinds of uPVC windows.
When replacing a uPVC window handle, it's a good idea to use screw cap caps to cover the screws to ensure the screws are secure and protect them from corrosion. Alternately, you can use a washer or spacer to create a more secure seal. Having a screw cap on the handle will also keep water and debris from entering the handle and damaging the handle.
After you have removed the handle from the window, it is a good idea for you to clean both the spindle and the threaded part of the bolt. This will ensure that the handle is fitted and functions properly and will also prevent dirt from entering the multipoint Euro lock handles.
The next step is to set up the uPVC patio door handle with lock. You should carefully read the instructions that came with your new handle. You can also review the previous one to get a better understanding of how to do it. Most of the time, the process is simple. If you have any issues that aren't addressed in this guide, we recommend contact our team for more information.
It is important to note that if you're replacing the uPVC cockspur (also called Espag handle) you'll require the height of the steps of your window to determine the correct size handle. The step height is the distance between the bottom of the window and the place where the cockspur handles sits.
Hinges
The hinges might not be aligned with the frame of your window when windows begin to close and open with a visible gap. It's usually a simple fix that can be resolved with a set of replacement hinges. We offer a range of options, and we can customize the size of the window hinges to meet your requirements.
We can supply different types of hinges for Upvc and timber windows. They are available in a range of colors to fit with your existing window frames and come with all fixings for fitting. If you have a double glazed window that has an older style of hinge, we can offer a selection of repair screw packs that allow you to cut the thread from the previous form back into the frame.
We offer a range of hinge styles, from conventional casement hinges for windows that can be used with a standard or tilt and turn handle, through to fire escape egress hinges for use on larger side-hung windows. They are designed to be opened fully in an emergency and have an easy-clean position that makes it easy to clean. We also stock hinges that are restricted in egress and are designed to restrict the opening angle of the window to a maximum of 100mm which is ideal for homes with children.
The sound of a hinge squeaking can be an indication that hinges are worn out, and this is usually caused by the rubbing of metal against. If the noise persists an ounce of lubricant will help.
The windows that are plumb help to avoid the need for binding, this means that the operating sash of the window is line with the frame, which ensures that it closes and opens correctly. A window that isn't plumb may begin to close and open without difficulty, or it could be distorted over time, which can affect the seal and the appearance of the window.
When purchasing replacement upvc window hinges, be aware that they can be purchased in either imperial or metric sizes. The sizes in metric are slightly more precise, but this isn't noticeable when they are installed. The first corner fixing holes on the track and arm are of a standard size, however the other holes can vary in length depending on the hardware used originally. You should measure the spacing of holes on your frame to make sure that the hinges made from upvc you purchase are the right size.
Crank
Over time, wear and tear could cause damage to the window patio door handle with lock and lock mechanism, or even the crank mechanism. This could hinder the ease of opening and closing your windows, and also compromise their security. If you notice that your window is hard to open or close, or hear a click sound when you turn the handle, it could be an indication that you have to replace the crank mechanism. If you are unable to secure your window or the multipoint lock is damaged it could be worth looking into replacing this piece of hardware too.
A new window crank can easily be replaced with little effort, but you need to ensure that you purchase the correct size replacement double glazing handles. You can determine if the replacement has the exact same step height as the original one by measuring the distance from the guide for the crank arm bushing to the notch on the track at the bottom of the frame. You can also determine the length of the spindle on your current handle to determine the size of a replacement upvc door handle.
The type of window handle you have will determine which kind of crank mechanism you need for your casement or awning windows. Espag handles have a brain spindle in the back that is attached to the frame of the window and controls the mechanism. Cockspur handles are fitted with pegs that are fixed in their position by three or four screws that are fitted in the sash as well as the frame.
Once you've found the appropriate replacement, it's simple to install. First, take off any trim mounting screws from the window's casement cover and carefully lift it off to reveal the insides of your window operator (Photo 1). Compare the new operating lever to the old one and take off any trim screws that are rusted. Then screw the replacement to the window frame, and replace any screws that were damaged or bent, and place the casement cover over the mechanism.
