Sash windows are the classic old-world style of windows with a very traditional feel and are often viewed as the symbol of traditional architecture. In addition to their beautiful aesthetic qualities, they are very effective in terms of energy efficiency, as they allow natural light to filter behind them while minimizing draughts through the frame, making them an ideal choice for modern buildings that seek a classic aesthetic.
Installed correctly and maintained properly, sash windows are the ideal choice for any homeowner who wants to save energy. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. A burglar also has a hard time forcing a window up if it is heavier due to the additional force required. Sash windows are particularly secure and consist of three layers of glass, which makes it very difficult for a burglar to break into the property.
Sash windows are also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. The secret is in the way they open. They are sandwiched between two powerful hardwood sides, which are often weather-stripped or covered with felt and other materials to prevent leaks.
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. As experienced window manufacturers, we know that sash windows are a cost-effective way to enhance the appearance and value of your property. Looking for assistance?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. Among each type, there are different choices for the number and location of panes per window. We have listed our most popular sash windows below:
As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. They feature two vertical sashes – upper and lower – that are made from wood or metal and can be opened for ventilation. The heat-transfer efficiency and lightweight nature of this style contributed to its popularity in England. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.
These windows are crafted from the highest quality materials, providing a classic look and modern soundproofing properties. The triple glazed and warm edge sprigging of box sash windows offer an attractive look from either inside or outside your home.
Spring balanced sashes are windows that have been modified to allow them to use a counterweight. Spring balanced sash windows are capable of opening much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees.
As a result of the spring-loaded balance, there is no handle to pull, and once the window has been opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds to close it, the same way an automatic garage door does. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. A traditional method of using elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ provides sufficient tension for the window to move freely without any hindrance, while still holding in place under all conditions. These factors have made them the best choice for period and timely projects, in addition to their fully weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frame.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
Detailing is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Blackheath and the Georgian sash fitted with our two sills and arches are a real statement of quality and style. The period design you will receive from us will be made out of top-class authentic parts to ensure quality craftsmanship.
A Victorian sash window is a classic double-hung sash window. To open or close, the bottom half of the frame slides up and down, but the top half remains stationary. Window sashes made in a Victorian style are still among the most common types in use today.
A sash has a natural space between the bottom edge and the frame called the reveal, which naturally encourages cold air to enter through the frame. You can further enhance the classic look by adding large, ornate crowns. There is a wide variety of colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a beautiful blue and green stained finish that will complement any exterior. Alternatively, they can be made with single, double, or triple glazing. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.

Various frame materials are available for our sash windows to meet your specific needs.
uPVC frames provide excellent energy efficiency and resistance to the elements in our Sash Windows.
There are many frame materials available in the marketplace and aluminium is one of them. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
We manufacture composite sashes from a sandwich of polyethene (HDPE) and aluminium, which makes for a strong and durable frame. In addition to protection from UV rays, weathering, animals, and chemicals that might cause corrosion on the frames, a latex acrylic finish is applied over them to ensure their longevity.
Wood makes a great window material. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable. Plus, wood frames meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!. Wooden sash frames from Trade Timber Windows and Doors Blackheath provide a warm, cosy ambience, and are available in a variety of styles, from modern to traditional.
