Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. These windows ensure you get a seamless visual link between the inside and outside of a building, whilst also promoting openness and freshness in airflow.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. The right ones can reduce draughts and lower energy bills if they are purchased and installed correctly.
The sashes (movable shutters) have an added weight to prevent someone from accidentally lifting the window open. The extra weight also helps slow down entry by a burglar due to the force needed to push the window up if there is resistance. Sash windows have long been recognised as robust and secure, with up to separate panels usually filled with broken glass to make a burglar’s task even more difficult.
Sash windows are easy to maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. There is a secret to unlocking them. Their moveable parts are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weather-stripping in between them to keep out the elements.
Our windows are made with a patented technology that eliminates the need for traditional springs. This makes them a lot more durable than other windows, which means that you’ll never have to worry about any springs snapping!
Windows are one of the most underrated and overlooked features of a home and in actuality, have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. If you’re renovating an older building or constructing a new one, sash windows will make the structure more desirable to potential buyers. Need assistance?

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. Each type of window can have many variations in how many panes are in it and where they are located. Here are our top-selling sash windows:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Barnsbury’s box sash windows are also characterised by a warm and stylish exterior design that blends seamlessly with the architecture of your home. In this case, the window frame is given additional depth by using a unique tapered-rail device.
These windows are crafted from the highest quality materials, providing a classic look and modern soundproofing properties. Modern box sash windows feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, making them both energy efficient and aesthetically appealing.
Spring balanced sashes are windows that have been modified to allow them to use a counterweight. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, up to 90 degrees.
The balance of the window is spring-loaded, so there is no handle to pull, and once it is opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds up to close it, similar to an automatic garage door. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. The combination of these features, combined with our weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frames have proven to be the most popular choice for period and time-sensitive projects.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. Their distinctive appearance adds originality to the properties of the era in which they are installed.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. The period design you will receive from us will be made out of top-class authentic parts to ensure quality craftsmanship.
Classic double-hung windows are Victorian sash windows. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
There is typically a large gap below the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge – this is called the reveal, and it allows cold air to enter through this space. You can further enhance the classic look by adding large, ornate crowns. There are many beautiful colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a lovely green and blue stained finish to match any exterior. As well as single, double, and triple glazing, they are available in a variety of sizes. Feature this charming window style in your period property today.
Edwardian sash windows have long been a mainstay in historic homes, but many people are finding that they work well in contemporary settings as well.
You can use them in new projects, and they add a sense of character to existing or new houses. An important characteristic of Edwardian sash windows is their unusual shape. Some of its historical elements remain intact, which make it unique. Edwardian sash windows that are traditional and authentic can fit any style and any job, but also will pay for themselves many times over thanks to the money you’ll save on your utility bills.
With Edwardian windows, double glazing maintenance will become a hassle-free process, and you will enjoy lower energy bills throughout the year as a result of improved insulation.

Our sash windows are available in a range of different frame materials to suit your needs.
With our uPVC Sash Windows, you will experience energy efficiency and optimal weather protection.
The versatility of aluminium makes it one of the most widely used frame materials. When used in a window, this product provides excellent thermal performance as it’s lightweight, rust-resistant, and corrosion-resistant.
Using high-density polyethene (HDPE) to strengthen the frame, we sandwich it between two metal pieces to create exceptionally strong and durable sashes. The frames are then painted with an acrylic latex finish to protect them from UV rays, weathering, bird and animal damage as well as chemicals that can lead to corrosion.
Wood windows are the best option. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable. Not only does the wood frame meet every standard criterion set by our customers, but it also performs well and is reliable. Taking inspiration from traditional and modern styles, Trade Timber Windows and Doors Barnsbury’s sash wood frames offer warm, cosy vibes.
