As the wedges are available in different sizes, it is crucial to know the step height you will need before purchasing a new handle.

Handles that can tilt and turn

The UK is home to a wide range of double-glazed windows featuring tilt and turn handles. Both timber and upvc ones feature these handles. The handle is typically placed at 90 degrees, but it can also be turned to 180 degrees. This lets the window be opened to the room fully, and also to lower it to let air circulate. The handle is locked in this position and requires an unlocking key when needed.

This type of handle is easily replaced since it only has one large handle, not a number of smaller ones. This reduces the overall look of the handle and is more in line with modern minimalistic design trends. They are also much easier to clean as they are able to open inwards.

Crank Handles

Crank handles require little effort to open and permit a stunning view of the outdoors without obstructing the glass. They are typically used in casement windows which are hinged on the sides or awning windows. They have an mechanism similar to a window bar, and linkage arm, which supports the window sash. The window sash opens or closes when you turn the handle clockwise. Contrary to other kinds of handles, a crank window's mechanism and handle are often subjected to significant wear and tear, which can cause the gears to strip and the handle to cease functioning or fall off the operator shaft. Inspecting both the crank handle and the operator mechanism regularly will ensure that they remain in good shape for many years to be.

A crank handle consists of an arm made of metal that is attached to a perpendicularly rotating shaft. The arm is operated manually by gripping it and turning it in a circular direction, much like you would operate a pencil sharpener. In some applications the handle could be operated via a leg.

The base of the crank handle is hollow. It's this hole that allows it to be connected to equipment and machinery. The handle's arm features an attaching bar that converts the circular motion from the handle into reciprocating and rotary motions to control machines and equipment.

Boats are usually transported on trailers using crank handles, as well as the adjusting equipment and machinery. They are typically made of stainless steel which is resistant to corrosion in marine environments. Most boat crank handles have been coated with a powder coat to protect them from damage and make them easier for cleaning.

Replace your crank handle when it stops working or does not allow you to open the window. Before doing so you should look for trim mounting screws inside the frame's screen track. If there aren't any, try to loosen the cover using a strong putty knife by sliding it between the window jamb and frame and pulling it. If that doesn't work, you can remove the cover and get access to the crank mechanism by removing the screws inside the window frame.
