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.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
The added weight of the sashes (operating shutters) can prevent someone from lifting the window open. Due to the heavier weight, breaking in is also substantially more difficult if there is resistance to pushing the window up. 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.
Sash Windows are easy to clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. The secret to opening them is hidden in plain sight. Most of their moving parts are encased between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, and a layer of felt or weather-stripping encloses them from the elements.
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 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-efficient way of giving character and charm to your home. Would you like some help?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. Among each type, there are different choices for the number and location of panes per window. These are some of our most popular window styles:
Sash windows are available in many styles, including box sash windows. There are two vertical wooden or metal sashes of this window, each of which can be opened for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Haggerston creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. Tapered-rail devices at the window frame add depth by adding additional taper to the rails.
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. A Spring balanced sash window can be opened much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees of opening.
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. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. 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. 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.
