Espag

Espag is a type of handle that is installed on uPVC windows and doors. These are handles that are turned to operate a multi-point locking system that secures the uPVC or casement windows made of wood when it is opened. They are also found on French doors as well as on other types of window frames. They are believed to be the most secure kind of handle for double-glazed windows since they have multiple locks. The handle rotates them all when it is being used.

The handles are made of metal and have a shaft on the back which fits into a gearbox in the window. This lets them operate the multi-point locks around the perimeter. These locks may take the form of shootbolts, roller cams or dead bolts, or a combination. They are perfect for uPVC and aluminum windows. door handles are available in straight and cranked models dependent on the method your windows were made.

Whether you are looking to replace your current uPVC window handle or you are installing new uPVC windows, it's worth knowing the differences between cockspur and espag handles to ensure you purchase the correct replacement for your windows. Cockspur handles are usually used on older models of double-glazed windows, whilst espag handles are more popular for modern homes that have uPVC windows.

The espag mechanism is different from the cockspur mechanism because it uses a flat metal strip (called an espagnolette rod) that runs along the locking side of the window. The handle for the espagnolette is equipped with round studs, called mushrooms, which move up and down when the espagnolette is moved. The mushrooms are then secured in a metal plate referred to as a keep that is attached to the window frame.

They can also be spray painted to match any color or style you desire.

If the window is closed, it is locked. When the handle is in the upward vertical position, the sash will be tilted inward by about 20 degrees. This is an efficient and comfortable way to ventilate by circulating air through the top gap.

To turn the window it is necessary to rotate the handle until it is at a 90 degree angle to the lock position. The sash opens to the side and is held by the hinges at the bottom. This allows windows to be opened in a wider way to let in light and air.

They are also a great option for those with small pets or children because 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 to a large extent, and so they cannot be smashed by burglars.
