The sprung lever can be shortened to fit a wider range of locks. This is particularly beneficial for doors with narrower frames, where the cylinder is further back. A shortened lever is also a good choice for doors where the latch can be operated by a thumb turn on the inside.

Lever Pad

The lever pad upvc handle for double glazed window is different from the lever handles commonly found on doors. The handle can work off one single spindle (inline) or independently from both sides using two inline or offset spindles (pad). They are commonly used on UPVC doors with double glazing. They are available in a variety of finishes and variations.

The handles have been tested to a minimum of 200,000 cycles and are available in various finishes, including White, Silver, Chrome & Gold.

The backplate fixation centres of 211mm allow for a wider handle, which is typically beneficial when replacing a damaged or old multi-point aluminium door handle lock mechanism. The handle levers come with springs, which can solve the issue of handles for doors that slide out of their horizontal position when not in use.

It is essential to ensure that the PZ dimensions of both the multipoint lock as well as the uPVC doors when selecting the replacement UPVC spindle and handle. This measurement is often known as the 'handle centre' or 'cylinder centres' and is a critical aspect to match the correct handles.

Euro Cylinder

Cylinder locks can be found on uPVC and other types of doors. Cylinder locks are operated by a key which unlocks the cylinder case. This reveals pins that can be aligned with those inside the lock, allowing them to rotate the revolving camera, thereby opening the door. Euro Cylinders are available with up to six pins. Doors that are internal and external require different levels of security.

The selection of a cylinder is vital. It's dependent on the use that your doors and handles will receive. External doors, for instance should be equipped with cylinders that are more secure while doors inside can be secured using the standard cylinder. Some cylinders have extra features that can increase security, for instance, anti-drill or anti bump properties.

A euro cylinder should be measured accurately to ensure it's the right size for your door. The cylinder should be measured from the hole in the center of the fixing screw to the other end of the cylinder, including the thumb turn if you have one. It is best to do this while the lock is in place however when this isn't possible, you can remove it to measure. A cylinder that protrudes beyond the handle and escutcheon might be susceptible to attacks like snapping locks, therefore it is crucial that it's not too long.

Most modern cylinders are designed with anti-drill and bump resistance features included in their design. They are designed to decrease attacks by forcing cylinders to turn in a new direction. This will help to deflect the attack and ensure your doors are secure.

Certain cylinders are made to resist snapping. This is a common occurrence on cylinders. A specific tool is used to break the break line of the lock, and the front of the cylinder is snapped off. This is a lot faster and less difficult than gaining access through multipoint locks and leaves no evidence of a burglary, which can impede the insurance claim.

Spring Cassette
