Sash windows are a beautiful architectural creation that is often seen as the mark of a traditional style. 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.
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 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 are strong and secure, so they have remained popular today. To break them, the burglar would have to shatter thick glass panels.
Sash windows are low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. It’s all in how they open. 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 the best part about our windows is that they are stronger and more reliable than even the highest quality traditional windows! Our reinforced springs prevent sagging and bending, even in the worst conditions, so you won’t have to worry about replacing any parts.
Windows are a vital investment, one of the most visible parts of a home, and a key factor in its overall value. Sash windows do create value in buildings, and because they stay open without the use of any additional equipment, they can ultimately help you save on energy costs. Need help?

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. We have listed our most popular sash windows below:
Box sash windows make a beautiful addition to any home, offering functionality and beauty in harmony. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Dulwich’s box sash windows are also characterised by a warm and stylish exterior design that blends seamlessly with the architecture of your home. In this case, the window frame is given additional depth by using a unique tapered-rail device.
The windows are made from high-quality materials and decorated with premium materials to fit any home style. Box sash windows also feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, which provides attractive features that look good from inside or outside your home.
Using a spring balanced sash means modifying a window to use it with a counterweight. Spring balanced sash windows are capable of opening much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees.
The balance of the window is spring-loaded, so there is no handle to pull, and once it is opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds up to close it, similar to an automatic garage door. Additionally, the double-glazed glass design makes them more energy-efficient. We use the traditional method of elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ to provide tension for the windowpane to move with ease but still hold firm in all conditions. 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.
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. Installed in period properties, they are a discrete inclusion that adds to their charm.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. We use top quality, genuine parts to ensure excellent quality so you can be sure you’ll get an awesome period design.
A Victorian sash window is a classic double-hung sash window. By sliding the bottom half up or down, and keeping the top half stationary, the frame can be opened or closed. Window sashes made in a Victorian style are still among the most common types in use today.
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. If desired, the classic look can be further enhanced by the addition of ornate crowns and returns. Our stunning Victorian timber sash windows are available in a wide range of colours, including beautiful blue and green stained finishes to compliment any exterior. As well as single, double, and triple glazing, they are available in a variety of sizes. This delightful window style is a perfect choice for anyone who possesses a period home.

The frame material for sash windows can be varied according to the customer’s preferences.
Sash Windows come in uPVC frames that offer energy efficiency and insulation from the elements.
Aluminium is one of the most versatile frame materials out there. The material is lightweight, rust-resistant, and provides excellent thermal properties when used in windows.
We manufacture composite sashes from a sandwich of polyethene (HDPE) and aluminium, which makes for a strong and durable frame. A latex finish helps protect the frames against UV rays and weathering, as well as animals and pollutants that can cause corrosion.
