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.
Traditionally, sash windows have been popular among homeowners because of their classic looks and high energy efficiency. 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. It also makes entry more difficult for burglars as a force is needed to push the window up in the case of 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 low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. It’s all in how 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.
Here’s what’s even better: unlike other traditional windows, you’ll never have to replace springs once they break!
In terms of real estate, a home’s windows are considered to be one of its most valuable assets.

As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. Developed in England, this style was popularized for its lightweight and excellent heat transmission. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Dalston creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. It is accomplished by installing a special tapered-rail device that gives the frame extra depth.
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. 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. Up to 90 degrees of opening can be achieved with a Spring Balanced sash window, much more than other traditional windows.
A spring balance eliminates the need for a handle; once the window is opened, it stays open until enough pressure has been built up to close it, similar to an automatic garage door. Additionally, the double-glazed glass design makes them more energy-efficient. 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.
We offer Georgian sash windows, which are unique types of windows that fit those with a need for a period style window that also provides ventilation. Their distinctive appearance adds originality to the properties of the era in which they are installed.
A real statement of quality and style, the Georgian sash with its two sills and arches are an important detail for us here at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Dalston. 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.
Double-hung sash windows can be described as Victorian sash windows. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Victorian sash windows are one of the most popular window styles in today’s market.
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 range of gorgeous colours for our stunning Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green staining to complement any exterior. As well as single, double, and triple glazing, they are available in a variety of sizes. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.
