Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. 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.
Traditionally, sash windows have been popular among homeowners because of their classic looks and high energy efficiency. If they are bought and installed correctly, they can help save on energy bills and reduce the effects of draughts easily.
The added weight of the sashes (operating shutters) can prevent someone from lifting the window open. A burglar also has a hard time forcing a window up if it is heavier due to the additional force required. 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 clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. The secret is in the way they open. To reduce the risk of rust, the moveable components are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weatherstripping in between.
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!

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. Among each type, there are different choices for the number and location of panes per window. Here are our most popular sash 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. English in origin, this style became popular due to its efficiency for transferring heat and its lightweight material. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Colney-Hatch’s box sash windows are also characterised by a warm and stylish exterior design that blends seamlessly with the architecture of your home. Tapered-rail devices at the window frame add depth by adding additional taper to the rails.
These windows are crafted from the highest quality materials, providing a classic look and modern soundproofing properties. 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.
Windows with spring balanced sashes use a counterweight in addition to a balance spring. Spring balanced sash windows are capable of opening much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees.
Its spring-loaded balance prevents a handle from being used, so, once the window is open, it will stay there until enough pressure is applied to force it shut, like an automatic garage door. Additionally, the double-glazed glass design makes them 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. We attribute this to the weather-proof, lightweight, paintable frames we offer, that allows us to serve the needs of time-sensitive and period projects.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. When installed, they are a discrete inclusion that adds an original look to period properties.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. To ensure quality workmanship, we utilize only top-grade authentic parts, so you can ensure you’re getting a period piece that’s of the highest quality.
Classic double-hung windows are Victorian sash windows. To open or close, the bottom half of the frame slides up and down, but the top half remains stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
Typically there will be a large gap between the bottom edge of the sash and the frame – this is called the reveal, and it naturally creates space that would allow cold air to enter through the frame. The classic look can be enhanced further by adding ornate crowns or returns to the top and bottom. You can choose from a wide range of colours for our stunning, Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green stains that go well with any modern exterior design. Alternatively, they can be built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.
