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. Sash windows are effective and practical, allowing natural light to filter into the room while keeping out the cold. Because they don’t move around like other types of windows, they make a great choice for an architect or engineer who wants classic aesthetics and high levels of efficiency.
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 (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. Due to the heavier weight, breaking in is also substantially more difficult if there is resistance to pushing the window up. 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 also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. It takes a certain skill to open them. Moveable parts are enclosed between two solid hardwood sides, often covered with an additional layer of felt or weather-stripping to prevent the elements from getting into them.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!

Sash windows are available in many styles, including box sash windows. A traditional style window, it includes horizontal wooden or metal rails that 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 Dollis-Hill creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.

Window components that have been modified to work with a counterweight are known as spring balanced sashes. 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. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. Combined with lightweight, weatherproof, and paintable frames, our products have become the top choice for time-critical projects.

You can choose from a variety of frame materials for your sash windows.
uPVC frames provide excellent energy efficiency and resistance to the elements in our Sash Windows.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
Several layers of high-density polyethene (HDPE) with two layers of aluminium create a frame so strong and durable that, when replaced, it will last hundreds of years. A latex finish helps protect the frames against UV rays and weathering, as well as animals and pollutants that can cause corrosion.
Whenever it comes to windows, wood is the ideal material. Wood is a renewable resource and is made from biodegradable natural fibres. Not only does the wood frame meet every standard criterion set by our customers, but it also performs well and is reliable.
