Espag handles, also referred as shootbolts, give more security than the single point lock that is found on older window frames.

Similar to Espag handles cockspur handle replacements are simple to put in place all you need is a new set of screws (supplied) and the proper backset.

There are many variations, so it's important to take measurements prior to purchasing the handle.
The spindle or, in certain instances, the entire handle assembly is removed by unwinding the handle. The new handle will then be screwed in place using two pozidriv screws.

By turning the handle 90@ or 180@ (depending on the kind of tilt and turn window) the sash can be opened upwards and the window can be tilted in order to allow air circulation through the opening at the top of the frame. This is a great method to ventilate without opening an enormous, potentially dangerous window.
