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.
The classic look and excellent energy efficiency of sash windows have made them a popular choice for homeowners for over a century. 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 also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. The secret to opening them is hidden in plain sight. 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.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!
Windows are a vital investment, one of the most visible parts of a home, and a key factor in its overall value. If you’re renovating an older building or constructing a new one, sash windows will make the structure more desirable to potential buyers. Need assistance?

We install several types of sash windows. Each window type has many variations in the number and location of its panes. Here are our top-selling sash windows:
As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow 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. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.
These windows feature authentic materials and premium decoration options, making them perfect for any style of home. The triple glazed and warm edge sprigging of box sash windows offer an attractive look from either inside or outside your home.
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.
As a result of the spring-loaded balance, there is no handle to pull, and once the window has been opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds to close it, the same way an automatic garage door does. Due to their innovative double-glazing design, these windows are also more energy-efficient. To move the windowpane with ease in all conditions, we use traditional elongated slots and wooden springs to provide the tension needed. Combined with lightweight, weatherproof, and paintable frames, our products have become the top choice for time-critical projects.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. When installed, they are a discrete inclusion that adds an original look to period properties.

The frame material for sash windows can be varied according to the customer’s preferences.
A uPVC frame is available for our Sash Windows; these windows provide well-insulated and energy-efficient solutions.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. The material is lightweight, rust-resistant, and provides excellent thermal properties when used in windows.
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. 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.
Whenever it comes to windows, wood is the ideal material. Wood is a renewable resource and is made from biodegradable natural fibres. Plus, wood’s low perceived cost and high perceived quality meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!.
