FAQ

What are Espagnolette (Espag) window handles?

Espag handles are locking mechanisms commonly used on uPVC and double-glazed windows. They operate a multi-point locking system via a 7mm spindle, enhancing security.

How do I identify my existing window handle type?

Examine your window handle: Espag handles typically have a 7mm square spindle and are found on uPVC or double-glazed windows with multi-point locking systems.

Are Espag handles universal?

Espag handles are generally standardized, but it's essential to check spindle size, screw hole spacing, and handing (left or right) to ensure compatibility with your window. If you are unsure on spindle size and installation, see our helpful guide here

Handedness refers to the direction the handle turns to lock or unlock. Left-handed handles turn counterclockwise, while right-handed ones turn clockwise.

How do I measure for a replacement Espag handle?

Measure the spindle length from the base of the handle to the end, and the distance between screw holes to ensure the new handle matches your window's specifications. Alternatively you can measure the depth of the centre hole in your window and round down to the nearest size available. You can view our helpful window handle spindle guide here
