Yes, replacement keys for uPVC windows can typically be obtained from the manufacturer or a locksmith specializing in uPVC products.
If you have uPVC windows in your home, it is important to know where and how to get replacement keys should the need arise. Having spare keys for all the locks on your doors and windows can be a lifesaver if you ever lose or misplace one of the originals.
This article will discuss some of these options so that you can make an informed decision when it comes time to replace any lost or broken keys.
Can You Get Replacement Keys For uPVC Windows?
The short answer is yes – you can get replacement keys for uPVC windows. However, the availability and cost of these replacement keys will vary depending on the window manufacturer.
The best way to get replacement keys for a uPVC window is to contact the window manufacturer directly. They can provide new keys specifically designed to fit the make and model of the handle on the window.
In some cases, you may be able to purchase generic replacement keys from a local locksmith or hardware store. However, these are not always guaranteed to work with your specific window and handle.
Are Window Keys Universal?
Window keys are not universal. Each window manufacturer may use their own handle specifically designed for the window, so the only way to guarantee that you get a key that will work with your window is to purchase one from the original manufacturer.
What If I Can’t Get Replacement Window Keys?
If you cannot get replacement window keys, the only option is to replace the uPVC window handle. The cost of a replacement handle would be approximately £10 – £20, depending on colour and style.
