Sash windows are the epitome of traditional architecture. They create the classic old-world style and are a clear display of class, elegance, culture and sophistication. In addition to their aesthetic value, these windows are excellent from an energy efficiency standpoint, as they allow natural light to filter behind them while mitigating draughts through the frame, resulting in popular choices for modern-day buildings seeking a classic aesthetic.
The classic look and excellent energy efficiency of sash windows have made them a popular choice for homeowners for over a century. They can reduce the impact of draughts and help save on energy bills if properly installed.
One of these features is the additional weight added to the sash of a window which prevents them from being easily lifted. Having the window extra heavy also makes it more difficult for a burglar to break in, since a stronger force is required to lift the window if there is resistance. Sash windows also have historically been more secure than other types of windows because burglars have to break through layers/panels and they are usually back-filled with glass pieces on impact and therefore difficult to enter.
Sash Windows are easy to clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. 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.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!

As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Childs-Hill creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. By using a series of tapered rails, an extra depth is added to the window frame.
These windows are constructed with genuine materials and come with a choice of high-quality grills and lattices, making them the perfect choice for your home. In addition to triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, box sash windows offer attractive features that are visually pleasing whether viewed from inside or outside your home.
Window components that have been modified to work with a counterweight are known as spring balanced sashes. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, up to 90 degrees.
Because the balance is spring-loaded, there is no handle to pull, and once the window is opened, it will stay open until enough pressure builds up to push it closed, similar to an automatic garage door. Due to their innovative double-glazing design, these windows are also more energy-efficient. The traditional method for providing tension for the windowpane to move with ease while holding firm is the use of elongated slots and wooden springs. 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.

There are different frames available for our sash windows, so you can choose the one that is best for you.
Sash Windows come in uPVC frames that offer energy efficiency and insulation from the elements.
The versatility of aluminium makes it one of the most widely used frame materials. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
Composite sashes are made from a high-density polyethene (HDPE) core sandwiched between two sheets of aluminium, creating a sash that is both strong and durable. A latex finish helps protect the frames against UV rays and weathering, as well as animals and pollutants that can cause corrosion.
