Sash windows are a beautiful architectural creation that is often seen as the mark of a traditional style. 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.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. It is possible to save on energy bills and reduce draughts by installing them correctly.
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 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.
Sash windows are low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. It takes a certain skill to open 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.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!

We install an extensive range of sash windows. With each type, there are many variations in the number and location of panes per window. Here are our top-selling sash windows:
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. 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. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.
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. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider 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. 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.
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. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
Classically designed, a Victorian sash window is a double-hung window. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. The Victorian sash is very traditional, and still make up one of the most common styles of windows today.
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. There are many beautiful colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a lovely green and blue stained finish to match any exterior. As well as single, double, and triple glazing, they are available in a variety of sizes. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.

You can choose from a variety of frame materials for your sash windows.
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.
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.
