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.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. The right ones can reduce draughts and lower energy bills if they are purchased and installed correctly.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. Due to the heavier weight, breaking in is also substantially more difficult if there is resistance to pushing the window up. Sash windows are known to be more secure than other types of windows because a burglar must break through the different panes of glass if they want to gain access.
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. There is a secret to unlocking them. 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.
Here’s what’s even better: unlike other traditional windows, you’ll never have to replace springs once they break!

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. Among each type, there are different choices for the number and location of panes per window. Here are our most popular sash windows:
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. The heat-transfer efficiency and lightweight nature of this style contributed to its popularity in England. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. Tapered-rail devices at the window frame add depth by adding additional taper to the rails.
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.
A spring balanced sash is a window that has been modified to allow it to be used with a counterweight. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider up to 90 degrees.
A spring balance eliminates the need for a handle; once the window is opened, it stays open until enough pressure has been built up to close it, 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.
Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that provides additional ventilation and provide a period style sash window. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
A real statement of quality and style, the Georgian sash with its two sills and arches are an important detail for us here at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Honor-Oak. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
Double-hung sash windows can be described as Victorian sash windows. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
A sash has a natural space between the bottom edge and the frame called the reveal, which naturally encourages cold air to enter through the frame. 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 built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Feature this charming window style in your period property today.

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.
There are many different types of frame materials out there, but aluminium is the most versatile. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
Our composite sashes are made of a high-density polyethene (HDPE) core sandwiched between two pieces of aluminium creating an extremely 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.
Whenever it comes to windows, wood is the ideal material. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable. Quality, elegance, and design are three major factors that don’t compromise wood frames in any way. They meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours! Trade Timber Windows and Doors Honor-Oak’s sash wood frames offer a warm, cosy feel and are available in a variety of styles, including modern or traditional.
