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.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. They can reduce the impact of draughts and help save on energy bills if properly installed.
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 easy to maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. 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.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!
Windows are one of the most underrated and overlooked features of a home and in actuality, have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. Sash windows are a cost-effective way to improve the value and thermal efficiency of residential or commercial properties. Need assistance?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. Here are our most popular sash windows:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. English in origin, this style became popular due to its efficiency for transferring heat and its lightweight material. Our box sash window frames come in a range of wood finishes that perfectly blend with your home’s exterior design. 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. Box sash windows also feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, which provides attractive features that look good 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.
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. Due to their innovative double-glazing design, these windows are also 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. Combined with lightweight, weatherproof, and paintable frames, our products have become the top choice for time-critical 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. 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. The period design you will receive from us will be made out of top-class authentic parts to ensure quality craftsmanship.
