If your caravan windows don’t seem to be closing properly this January then don’t worry. The mechanism may have become damaged, but the good news is that you don’t have to replace the entire window to get it working again. Instead, all you need to do is replace the old caravan window catches with reliable new ones, or upgrade them with a more secure option.
Catches, like handles, are used to shut and secure a caravan window, so if you notice any issues with these fixtures now is the time to replace them. This is easily done, but you will need to make sure that the replacement you choose is compatible with your caravan windows, so read on to find the right caravan window catches for your vehicle.
Choosing the right caravan window catches
We offer a range of catches for caravan and motorhome windows, but these fixtures are specific to each window manufacturer and cannot be used for a different manufacturer's products. This means that you should note down the make of your windows before you start searching for a replacement, and if you are unsure whether the catch you choose is suitable then we are on hand to help you check.
Here are our top picks from some of the most popular caravan brands:
Polyplastic
As the exclusive Polyplastic After Sales Partner in the UK, we’re proud to stock a range of Polyplastic caravan window catches, including these two best sellers:
● Polyplastic Polylock Caravan Window Lever Lock Catch: The most popular product in our Caravan Window Catches and Stays range, the Polyplastic Polylock Catch comes with a push button lock which can only be unlocked from inside the vehicle.
● Polyplastic Polyfix Caravan Window Lever Lock Catch: The Polyplastic Polyfix Catch is suitable for all Polyplastic windows and is available in our range for just £7.50.
Polyplastic is the main supplier of windows and their accessories to the majority of caravan, motorhome, and campervan manufacturers in the UK and Europe. If you need a replacement caravan window catch, it is likely to be a Polyplastic one, but as always, get in touch with us to check.
Plastoform

Caravan window essentials
You might need to invest in more than just a new catch this January. To make sure that your windows function safely and correctly, you may also need to replace the following:
● Stays: Caravan stays are fitted to either side of a window to keep it open. Like catches, these fixtures are not always interchangeable between different manufacturers' windows, and vary in length and size.
● Locks: Unlike the majority of caravan window handles which do not lock, locking handles offer additional security and can be easily fitted to Polyplastic windows.
● Seals: Rubber seals are easily removed and replaced, and the right type of seal will depend upon the make and model of your caravan.
● Handles: Right and left hand replacement handles are available in our range, but the replacement that you choose must be compatible with the window model and locking mechanism.
Whatever window fixtures you need, we can help!
