Everyone appreciates the comfort and performance of PVCu and high performance timber windows with their thermal efficiency and security benefits.
However, many end users desire a traditional appearance to windows that current contemporary handles cannot provide.
The answer to this problem is the greenteQ Monkey Tail espagnolette handle, which works with standard and security espagnolettes, and shootbolts.
greenteQ Monkey Tail has been designed specifically as an espagnolette handle, rather than modified from an existing casement fastener.
The backplate has been cast to the correct width to allow it to clear the frame rebate on modern outward opening windows rather than being machined then coated.
The handle’s ‘Lift to Turn’ function prevents handle droop on top hung sashes and guards against external manipulation. Full key locking is provided by the working cylinder and the 60mm spindle has easy-cut notches enabling trimming to fit any profile.
To complement the Monkey Tail handle, there is also a non-handed greenteQ Monkey Tail Dummy Casement Stay.
This is a purely decorative item that fits to the bottom of the opening sash to replicate a casement stay and peg, thus completing the traditional ‘illusion’
Both products are finished in hard wearing Antique Black powder coat and are covered by the 10 year greenteQ mechanical and 20 year greenteQ surface guarantees.
