UPVC Window Locks
With all this focus on securing your home’s doors, it can be easy to forget other potential weak points, such as your UPVC windows. Whether it is a result of regular use or deliberate or accidental damage, UPVC window locks can become less effective and secure over time.
Sometimes the issue can result from a malfunctioned gearbox or another part of your window’s multipoint locking mechanism. It can get tricky determining the exact cause on your own. That’s where my experience and expertise could come in handy, providing you with reliable UPVC window lock repair and replacement services.
In other cases, finding out the type of handle your UPVC window has might be a crucial step to determining the kind of replacement you will need. The following are some of the types of handles that I can help you repair or replace.
Espagnolette Handles
These are the most commonly used type of UPVC window handles. They have a multipoint locking mechanism, which, thanks to its shoot-bolt rods, provide extra security. The handle also has a spindle that protrudes into the lock gearbox. When you turn the handle, the spindle activates this gearbox, which, in turn, rotates the locks to open the window.
Sometimes, the handle or the lock can break, making it impossible for you to lock and secure the window. In such a case, getting in touch with Saltire Lock & Security is the best course of action.
Cockspur Handles
Cockspur handles are often installed on UPVC casement windows. All you need to do to close a window with such a handle is to push the handle’s nose across a wedge block. The handle can sometimes stick with such windows or fail to operate, often needing repairing or replacing.
Replacing a cockspur handle can be challenging because you need to make sure that the gap under the new handle’s nose is the same size as that on the old handle.
Whatever the type of lock or handle you need replacing, I will help you find one that best suits not only your window but your security requirements. I can help you achieve the peace of mind you need by knowing that every part of your West Lothian home is as secure as it can be.
