Espag handles are a multipoint lock system that is fitted to casement windows, such as uPVC and double glazing made of wood. The handle is fitted with a 7mm square shaft that fits inside a gearbox on the uPVC window. When the handle is turned it triggers a series of locks around the perimeter of the window. Espag handles, also referred to as shootbolts, provide more security than the single point lock found on older frames.
They are available in a variety of different styles, such as inline and cranked handle designs that can be used either left or right-hand operation.
