Choosing a Handle For Double Glazed Window
 
 Double glazed windows are not complete without window handles. They can make your home more secure while adding a beautiful feature. We can help you select the appropriate window handle.
 
 The most commonly used handle used on uPVC Windows is the Epag handle. They are made of a square spindle that acts as an internal locking mechanism within the window frame.
 
 uPVC
 
 uPVC, also known as Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride, is an ideal material for doors and windows due to its durability and resistance to water damage, and other weather conditions. It is easy to maintain and repair, and is able to be painted to match the other components of a window. It is a great thermal insulation. It's possible to find a handle for double glass windows made out of uPVC that will meet your specific needs.
 
 Older uPVC windows had handles with cockspurs in various step sizes although these can be replaced by espag handles with the 30mm long spindle (UK version is 7mm square metal and the Scandanavian is 8mm). Modern casement aluminium double glazing uses a multi-point lock that requires a handle called a "dummy stay" (also called a "peg stay") to operate. These are fixed around the opening windows to provide greater support for the opener. They also pull the sash back into the frame, improving the weather performance.
 
 They are typically secured using two bolts, just like the Espag handle, but have a lower projection. This means the handle won't be able to penetrate your blinds, which is the case with other types of handles. You can also get an adjustable tilt and turn handle which works with your uPVC windows to provide you with more options when it comes to cleaning them from inside your home.
 
 The monkey tail handle is a stylish and long uPVC handle. These handles are more attractive than the standard pane grips, but they have the same 7mm spindle that Espag handles have. These are often found in high-rise flats as they help in cleaning your windows from the inside.
 
 These are anchored at 43mm centres by two countersunk machine screws M5. These are popular replacements because they look just like the original handles. They are also available as left- or right-handed models. They're also compatible with a range of uPVC window lock and locking systems like the cylinder guards, which are attached to uPVC windows and door frames.
 
 Aluminium
 
 The handle you select will make a big difference in the way your windows function. Standard aluminium frames are highly conductive to cold and heat. If you choose the wrong lock for your window, it may decrease their energy efficiency. However, this doesn't mean you should stick to standard handles. There are many options available to match your style and budget. There are many materials to choose from. However, stainless steel is the most suitable option because it is resistant to scratches and is extremely durable. If you prefer a traditional look, then you can also opt for bronze-coloured window handles. Handles made of aluminium are also rust-proof, so they're a good alternative for those looking to protect their investment.
 
 Espag handles are equipped with a multi-point locking mechanism and are the most common kind of uPVC window handle. They are also easy to clean and are available in a variety of colors and designs. The first step to replace a window handles on uPVC windows is to take out the handle that is currently in use. This can be done by lifting the caps of plastic that cover the screws at the top and the bottom of the handle. This can be accomplished with either a fingernail or a flathead. After the caps have been removed, loosen the handle to replace it with a brand new one.
 
 There are a variety of cockspur window handles to choose from and they are available in different shapes and sizes. Some are equipped with an arm or a nose that can be placed over the frame. Others come with the wedge-shaped lock. You can also find various designs, including tilt and turn handles, spade or blade handles, and even monkey tail handles. Some handles are used on both uPVC and timber frames, while others are specific to one or the other.
 
 It is essential to determine the height of the handle prior to replacing it with a new uPVC handle. The "step height" is measured in millimetres. The standard step height is nine millimetres on uPVC and 21 millimetres on aluminum windows. The height is also crucial because it determines the amount of force is required to operate the handle.
 
 Wood
 
 It is important to choose the right handle, regardless of whether you have uPVC windows, wooden windows or aluminium ones. It's not just about the appearance of your home but also your energy efficiency. A window handle that is not properly installed can let cold air in, wasting energy. The good news is that there are a variety of choices available, from mass-produced to one-of-a-kind antiques.
 
 Espagnolette handles are found on uPVC tilt and turn windows as well on uPVC casing windows. They are equipped with a spindle which locks into the shape of a wedge inside the frame. They are a popular option for security and can be equipped with a child lock. They are generally straight, but some feature left and right versions for different handle and window types.
 
 Other handle designs for casement windows include a plume style which relies on the mortice slot to lock into. This design is common on older timber casement windows and can be reconstructed using authentic methods to give a period appearance. A shepherd's crook was also used on the original timber sash and casement windows. It is possible to recreate this look by using authentic finishes and techniques.
 
 Some aluminum or uPVC casement window models come with a crank that allows the operating arms to fold inside the window frame while they are not in use. They operate in the same manner as a conventional casement window, and work in the same manner -- turning the crank in one direction extends the operating arm and opens the sash while turning it in the opposite direction retracts the arm and closes the sash.
 
 When selecting the best window handles for your uPVC or wooden double-glazed windows that are made of aluminium, it is important to take into account both style and functionality. It is essential that your handles fit properly and are sturdy enough to fulfill their purpose. Before purchasing, take measurements of the handle length and width as well as the spindle length. Be sure to determine which way the handle can be turned - some handles can only rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise.
 
 Steel
 
 Double glazing is an effective method to cut down on the amount of cold air that enters your home. It is made up of two panes of glass separated by a gap which can be filled with an inert gas such as Argon. This improves the insulation power of your windows and also cut down on noise. It can also save you money on energy bills as it reduces loss of heat in winter, and also the unwanted solar gain in summer.

 To ensure that your double-glazed window is sealed properly, you should apply a premium sealant around the edges of each pane as well as between the frames. These sealants can be found at hardware stores and home improvement stores. They are designed to last for a number of years, but you should be sure to check them regularly to ensure that they're working properly. Replace it as soon as you discover that one is not working properly.
 
 There are many different kinds of window handles for double glazed windows. Some are made of aluminum or uPVC and others are made from wood. All are designed to be simple to use and attractive. Consider your own personal tastes and preferences when selecting the best window handle. You'll need to choose one that is in harmony with your home's style and complements the overall style.

They can differ depending on the type, some with a hook keep that the latch slides over and others using mortice keepers which are positioned within the frame itself. Certain styles of handles have locks, which are generally simple grub-bolts. This provides additional security and makes it difficult to open the window.
 
 The handles for cockspur on timber casement windows are made to look as slim as they can and have spindles that are shorter. The length of the spindle can be a deciding aspect when replacing the handle on a window It is therefore important to measure the old handle and the length of the spindle to get an idea of what you'll need.
