Spring & Spiral Balances

At Locks & Handles we offer quality spring and spiral balances to make traditional box sash and spiral balance windows operable without excessive force. These devices are counterbalancing mechanisms that replace the weight and pulley systems of Victorian originals with more compact and reliable modern alternatives. They feature torsion springs encased within tubes or spiral rod systems. What they do is provide constant counterforce to window weight. And that creates effortless operation regardless of sash position.

Quality balances ensure whisper-quiet operation of your windows without the annoying rattling of traditional weights. Moreover, they don’t demand extensive maintenance throughout their service life and you can adjust or replace them without major modifications to the window frame.

If you’re restoring a heritage property or refurbishing a window to make it function more like contemporary, you’ll benefit greatly from the collection of quality spring (for restoration projects) & spiral (for modern installations) balances of Locks & Handles. We stock trade-proven devices from Era and Balance to ensure you’ve got plenty of options. At Locks & Handles we have replacement springs and complete balance systems to make your project a huge success.
