Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. They are also very effective from an energy efficiency point of view, as they allow natural light to filter behind them whilst mitigating draughts through the frame, often making them popular choices for modern-day buildings looking for a classic aesthetic.
Installed correctly and maintained properly, sash windows are the ideal choice for any homeowner who wants to save energy. 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. A burglar also has a hard time forcing a window up if it is heavier due to the additional force required. 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 easy to maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. It takes a certain skill to open them. Their moveable parts are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weather-stripping in between them to keep out the elements.
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.
The windows of a home can have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. If you’re renovating an older building or constructing a new one, sash windows will make the structure more desirable to potential buyers. Need help?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. Each window type has many variations in the number and location of its panes. Here are our most popular sash windows:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. 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. 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. Modern box sash windows feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, making them both energy efficient and aesthetically appealing.
Spring balanced sashes are windows that have been modified to allow them to use a counterweight. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, up to 90 degrees.
Because the balance is spring-loaded, there is no handle to pull, and once the window is opened, it will stay open until enough pressure builds up to push it closed, similar to an automatic garage door. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. The traditional method for providing tension for the windowpane to move with ease while holding firm is the use of elongated slots and wooden springs. Combined with lightweight, weatherproof, and paintable frames, our products have become the top choice for time-critical projects.
These Georgian style sash windows provide extra ventilation and are an excellent choice for those in search of period style sash windows. These components integrate discreetly into period properties and bring a sense of originality to them.
Detailed work is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Harefield, and the Georgian sash along with the columns and arches are real statements of quality and style. We use top quality, genuine parts to ensure excellent quality so you can be sure you’ll get an awesome period design.
Double-hung sash windows can be described as Victorian sash windows. By sliding the bottom half up or down, and keeping the top half stationary, the frame can be opened or closed. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
There is typically a large gap below the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge – this is called the reveal, and it allows cold air to enter through this space. If desired, the classic look can be further enhanced by the addition of ornate crowns and returns. You can choose from a wide range of colours for our stunning, Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green stains that go well with any modern exterior design. Alternatively, they can be built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.

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.
There are many frame materials available in the marketplace and aluminium is one of them. Applied to windows, it provides excellent thermal properties because it is lightweight and rust-resistant at the same time.
We manufacture composite sashes from a sandwich of polyethene (HDPE) and aluminium, which makes for a strong and durable frame. 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. Several natural fibres make up wood, a renewable resource and biodegradable material. Plus, wood’s low perceived cost and high perceived quality meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!. Aesthetically and functionally, our wooden frames provide a warm, cosy feel, and they are available in a variety of designs, from modern to traditional.
