Window handles

Window handles are an item on a upvc double glazed window that is often over looked. As a security conscious nation we tend to put our window handle keys somewhere safe but then the only problem is that we can’t remember where. Handles and Hinges can offer both replacement keys for your window handles, or if the key or handle is no longer made we can offer a simple to fit alternative. Our inline espag window handles come in gold, white, silver and black.

Many people think of their upstairs windows as a fire exit … it isn’t an exit if you can’t find the key.

Handles and Hinges also sell fire escape window handles that are a different colour to the others and don't need a key to operate. Ask us for details.

Letterboxes

Letterboxes, or letterplates as some people call them, are great when they work but when the spring breaks, the letterbox turns into a heat guzzling animal. Every time the wind blows your letterbox starts rattling. When the kids run out of the door and all the double glazing at the the front of the house rattles, the letterbox carries on long after.

Handles and Hinges stock letterboxes to suit 99% of upvc and aluminium doors and they are available in white, silver, chrome, black and gold. Whilst we can’t guarantee to stop the postman stuffing half a rainforest through your door we can help to cut down the draughts coming through your double glazed door

Draughty double glazed windows

Have you got upvc windows that are draughty? Do the curtains move at night when the window is supposed to be closed? Are you forever trying to buy new rubber seals to make your window less draughty.

Have you looked at your hinges?

Upvc window hinges work in a completely different way to ‘original’ style window hinges. When they close, they pull in at the top, this causes compression and the window not to be draughty. In many cases UPVC friction hinges have simply worn out and where the sash (opener) meets the frame there is a gap .To see if you need new hinges try these tests.

1. Go to the handle on the window.

2. Move your hand to the opposite side of the window.

Is there a draft?

Another way of checking this is by opening your window and then putting a till receipt or similar between the frame and the opener. Pull the window shut and close the handle. Try to pull out the paper. If the paper comes out easily then you need new hinges.

In some cases the paper falls out by itself. Simple tests like these can save you a lot of wasted heat and energy.

PVC Double Glazed Front and Back Doors .. upvc door handles, gasket seals, hinges, letterboxes

Letterboxes, handles and even hinges can cause problems on UPVC front and back doors. Sometimes you  may find the locking mechanism on you door may not be working or the key may not turn fully in the cylinder during locking your door.The key might only come out when the door is open.

Has the postman kindly removed  your letterbox flap when trying to stuff half a rain forest of menus through or has the little plastic spring broken? During windy days does the wind blow through indicating your gasket seal may have perished or even disappeared completely at the bottom.Try our Gasket sample pack, a mixed pack of Bubble gasket, Flipper gasket and Wedge gasket to try in your windows and doors

Do you have floppy door handles? This is common on upvc doors where the mechanism  may be starting to fail or just the springs in the handle getting weak. We Can Help.
