FAQs
What are these screws used for?
These are replacement male screws specifically designed for espagnolette window handles. They are used to secure the handle to the window locking mechanism.
How many screws are included?

What material are the screws made of?
They are made from durable stainless steel.
What is the colour of the screws?
The screws have a grey finish.
How do I know if these screws will fit my window handle?
You must check the product's technical drawing to confirm the dimensions (M5 x 40mm) and thread type are compatible with your specific espagnolette window handle mechanism. They are not a universal fit.
What is the warranty period for these screws?

Can I use these screws for other types of window handles?

Troubleshooting
Screw does not fit
Verify that you have consulted the technical drawing and confirmed the M5 x 40mm size and thread type match your espagnolette handle mechanism. Ensure the old screw has been fully removed.
Screw head is damaged during installation
Ensure you are using the correct size screwdriver for the screw head. Do not overtighten. If the head is already damaged, it may indicate a compatibility issue or a defect.
Screw is not secure after tightening
Check that the corresponding nut or threaded insert in the espagnolette mechanism is not damaged or stripped. The screw may not be engaging properly with the receiving thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These screws are designed for direct replacement. Ensure the window handle mechanism is accessible and the old screw is removed. Align the new M5 x 40mm male screw with the pre-drilled hole in the espagnolette mechanism and tighten securely.
Compatibility: Crucially, these screws are only compatible with specific espagnolette window handles. Users must refer to the technical drawing provided by the manufacturer to verify the dimensions (M5 x 40mm) and thread type match their existing hardware before purchase. They are not universal.
Care: As they are made from stainless steel, these screws are low maintenance. Clean with a soft, damp cloth if they become dusty. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these could potentially damage the finish.
