Hi,

Ive moved into my girlfriends house and it needs little work to say the least.

One of my issues is the Handle for the windows ( more than one) dont really work, i think they are very cheap UPVC Double glazed windows,

The handles turn but the window can be opened when its closed. one of the windows doesnt have a handle and i can see the square plate insdie is rounded.

is it easy to find and fit these?

One of the upstairs windows wont close properly, but i think this is just the alignment of the locks..

Im hoping its possible to just buy and fit new handles and internals. if so where the best place or would b+Q do it ( if Do It All all knew it, they be doing it as well )

i'll get my coat.......lol

but if anyone can asnwer my qestion that would be great!!
 
Thanks guys i'll have a browse on those sites and let you know how i get on.

just had a look at the handles and i cant see any names or marks.
 
I now know more about UPVC Locks and handles than i ever thought i would LOL.

Thanks very much, two very good websites.
