These handles are used to operate a multipoint locking system which secures a old upvc door handles casement window or timber casement when it's opened. They are also used on French bi-fold doors handles as well as other kinds of window frames. They are thought to be the most secure kind of handle for double-glazed windows because they employ multiple locks and the handle rotates them all when it is used.

These handles have a metal shaft at the back that fits into a gearbox in the window. This lets them operate the multi-point locks around the perimeter. These locks are available in shootbolts, roller cams, or deadbolts. This makes them ideal for uPVC or aluminium windows. They are available in straight and cranked variants, depending on how your windows are constructed.

If you're planning to replace the handle on your uPVC window or installing new windows, you should be aware of the distinction between the cockspur and espag handles.

Cockspur handles are typically installed on older types of double-glazed windows, whilst espag handles are more typical for uPVC windows handles modern homes with uPVC windows.

The espag mechanism is different from the cockspur mechanism as it uses a flat metal strip (called an espagnolette rod) that runs along the side that locks the window. The rod is then fitted with round studs referred to as mushrooms that move up and down when the handle of an espagnolette is moved. The mushrooms are then locked into a metal plate on the window frame called a keep.

Tilt and turn

Tilt and Turn windows offer a blend of European design and style with a greater functionality, increased security and energy efficiency. They are the ideal solution for building projects and homeowners looking to add value to their homes or buildings.

These windows come with a unique dual function handle that allows the window to tilt inwards to allow for ventilation and open as doors for easy cleaning. They also serve as an excellent escape point in case of emergency and can be opened wide enough to allow egress.

Tilt-and-turn windows are simple to operate and look great on a variety of homes and structures. They provide features that aren't available in other kinds of windows, including different opening designs and bars that give a more traditional look and a wide range of materials and finishes. They can also be painted to match any color or style you like.

If the window is closed it is locked. When the handle is vertically up, the sash moves inwards by approximately 20 degrees. This is an efficient and comfortable method to let air circulate because air circulates through the top gap.

To turn the window handle, turn it until it is 90 degrees to the lock position. The sash will then open upwards and will be secured by hinges at the bottom. This allows for the windows to be opened more, allowing more light and ventilation.

They are also a great choice for families with small children or pets as they can be opened from the bottom, but without allowing the child to fall out. The hinge at the bottom prevents them from being opened too much and therefore they can't be broken by burglars. They are also an excellent option for those looking to cut down on their heating bills and improve energy efficiency since they provide a good level of thermal insulation. This is accomplished by using multi chamber profiles and triple or double glazing.
