Window Lock Fitting & Repair — What to Expect

Window locks get less attention than door locks, but a loose or broken window handle is one of the more common reasons a home fails a basic security check. On uPVC windows the espagnolette mechanism — the long metal bar that runs the length of the frame — locks the window at several points when the handle is turned; older or cheaper systems tend to wear at the same point year after year until the handle stops engaging properly.

Cockspur handles, found on many uPVC and older aluminium windows, are simpler but just as prone to failing: the small hooked bolt wears down, or the handle itself snaps at the base. Both are usually straightforward like-for-like swaps once we've confirmed the exact fitting.

For timber casement and sash windows the hardware is different again — traditional fasteners, sash stops and dual screws — but the same principle applies: most repairs are a same-visit job once we've seen the window.

If you're looking to improve security rather than just fix something broken, key-locking handles are worth considering on ground-floor windows or anywhere easily reached. It's a small upgrade that removes the option of a window being opened from outside even if the glass is reached.

Ground-floor and easily reached windows deserve particular attention, since they're the most likely point anyone would try first. A working lock is only useful if it's actually used day to day, so it's worth checking every window lock in the house is one the household genuinely engages, not just the ones near the front of the property.

If you're dealing with several windows at once — replacing handles across a whole house, for example — it's usually more efficient to have them looked at together in one visit rather than booking separate call-outs as each one fails in turn. We carry enough common espagnolette and cockspur parts to handle most multi-window jobs in a single visit.
