Cockspur

Cockspur handles can be found on older uPVC or aluminium windows. The handle turns and closes over the receiver, which is a wedge-shaped plastic catch (not to be confused with window latches made from timber that are also covered in this section). These handles can be lockable or non-lockable. They are available in a variety of nose sizes that can be adapted to the existing frame.

The handle is secured by a small triangle-shaped spur (spur) that is attached to the frame. They are typically one-way handles, but a deadlock with a locking mechanism can be added to give additional security.

Tilt and Turn

The top European window style with tilt and turn has been popular in Europe for decades, but it's just now beginning to gain popularity in the American market. They combine the benefits of three different window types into one - tilt, pivot and in-swing. This makes them suitable for older homes as they can provide a greater level of ventilation than traditional window types.

When in the closed position tilt and turn windows lock as windows that are fixed in normal fashion. By turning the handle 90@ or 180@, depending on the type of tilt-and turn window, the sash will open inwards and the window tilts inwards to allow for air to circulate. This is a great option for ventilation without the need to open a large window, which can be a safety risk if it is not secured properly when opening.

If the handle is turned 90@ or 180@ the sash will be fully opened, much like the door.

This is called handing and is a vital piece of information, especially when buying online as some handle variations don't fit all windows. For example, some handles for cockspurs are angled, whilst others are straight and turn either left or right. You'll also require the size of the spindle which is the distance between the base of handle and the head of handle.

Identifying if your windows require a limiter is also crucial when selecting the right handle. They are usually employed in high-rise flats or commercial structures, but are not a requirement for homes used by the homeowner. Also, you should consider the step height, which is the distance between the screw plate and the apex of the handle.
