Espag Handle

Espag handles are most commonly found on Upvc (but they are also used in aluminium and timber). The handles feature a square spindle that extends from the back of the handle and locks into the multi-point locking mechanism of the window. By turning the handle, you control the mechanism that locks and unlocks the locking points around the window.

Window handles made of Espag are available in many different styles and functions. Some come with a push button for locking closed, and key-locking. (And fire-escape nonlocking if required.)
