Fixing window locks to white aluminium windows

[Noah]

Just moved into a house with white aluminium double glazing all round, but no window locks at all

Anyone know how to attach window locks to these things? Screwing them to the frame doesn't seem like an option. Superglue?

You will need to change the window handles which is called Cockspur lockable handles, another bonus is that to keep your building insurance happy, without windows locks, the insurance companies will not pay out in any claims Cilla Black found out the hard way and lost all her claims because of no windows locks.

I got mine from www.speedylocks.co.uk via ebay.

You will need to check for the correct handles as they have difference thicknesses, gap, hole position and wedge etc

Also you might be interested in window restrictor from here I use these on my top hung windows
