There are numerous kinds of uPVC window and handles for bifold doors are sometimes made of a different substance from the rest of the windows. To be able to determine the type of handle you have it is important to know how the mechanism operates. The "spur" handle is the most common uPVC window type. It operates a locking system by pushing the nose across the block in a wedge shape. This kind of handle is usually found on tilt and turn uPVC windows, although it is also used on casement windows.

The "blade" handle is also known as "spade" works in a similar manner to the spur handle. The blade handle utilizes a roller to operate the bolts while the spur handles for patio doors use pegs to engage the lock's lugs.
