Inspired by classic design, they come in a range of styles and finishes, complementing architecture from new builds to period buildings. 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.
Traditionally, sash windows have been popular among homeowners because of their classic looks and high energy efficiency. They can reduce the impact of draughts and help save on energy bills if properly installed.
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 are particularly secure and consist of three layers of glass, which makes it very difficult for a burglar to break into the property.
You can keep your sash windows in good working order with little attention needed thanks to their design, plus their durable material helps them last for many years. 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.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!
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. Have a question?

We specialise in installing several types of sash windows. 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:
Box sash windows make a beautiful addition to any home, offering functionality and beauty in harmony. There are two vertical wooden or metal sashes of this window, each of which can be opened for ventilation. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. The box sash windows give homeowners a clean and classic look by enhancing the outlook of any property and are also designed to blend seamlessly with the building structure, making them an aesthetically pleasing choice for homeowners. It is accomplished by installing a special tapered-rail device that gives the frame extra depth.
These windows provide unprecedented levels of authenticity, craftsmanship, quality, and personalization. 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.
A spring balanced sash is a window that has been modified to allow it to be used with a counterweight. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash 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. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. 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.
Our Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that is perfect for those who require period style sash windows that provide additional ventilation. Their distinctive appearance adds originality to the properties of the era in which they are installed.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
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.
The gap beneath the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge is called the reveal, and it lets cold air into the house. You can further enhance the classic look by adding large, ornate crowns. 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. Alternatively, they can be made with single, double, or triple glazing. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.

You can choose from a variety of frame materials for your sash windows.
With our uPVC Sash Windows, you will experience energy efficiency and optimal weather protection.
Aluminium is one of the most versatile frame materials out there. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
Composite sashes are made from a high-density polyethene (HDPE) core sandwiched between two sheets of aluminium, creating a sash that is both strong and durable. The frames are then painted with an acrylic latex finish to protect them from UV rays, weathering, bird and animal damage as well as chemicals that can lead to corrosion.
The best window material is wood. 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. Taking inspiration from traditional and modern styles, Trade Timber Windows and Doors Gospel-Oak’s sash wood frames offer warm, cosy vibes.
