PVC window and door hardware

The same locking logic we build for aluminium windows, made for PVC (plastic-steel) profiles: window and door transmissions, friction stays and pegstays, crescent locks, hinges and cylinders. This page is an overview of the range with representative models; the complete PVC section is available on request.

Window transmissions

Inward, outward and double-action versions, 600 to 1200 mm, with 2 or 3 locking points.

Door transmissions

Sliding door and side-hung door transmissions with spread lock points.

Stainless stays

Friction stays in 201 and 304 steel, published sash limits and 87° opening.

Matching fittings

Crescent locks, hinges and cylinders finished to match the handle set.

Range overview

What we supply for PVC windows and doors

Pegstays for PVC top-hung and side-hung sashes

Pegstays hold the sash at the open angle. A, B and C are the assembly dimensions shown on the catalogue drawing.

Selection notes

What to check before ordering PVC hardware

These notes come from the PVC section of the catalogue and cover the installation space, stay sizing and fixings.

  • Hardware needs 16–16.5 mm of installation space in the PVC profile, measured at the sash and frame.
  • For a side-hung sash the friction stay should be at least 2/3 of the window width; a light sash can go down to 1/2. For a top-hung sash the stay length is about 1/2 of the window height.
  • When the stay is loaded it deflects elastically, so choose a total stay height 0.5–1 mm larger than the gap between sash and frame for an even seal when closed.
  • Fixings are stainless steel ST4.2 / 4.8 self-tapping screws in countersunk and pan head versions: countersunk where the profile is countersunk, pan head elsewhere.
  • The OHL.DWK-001 duplicator is used to transfer the drilling pattern to the PVC profile; it is not handed.

Tell us your PVC profile system and the sash sizes when you inquire — the transmission length and lock points depend on both.
