Sash windows are the epitome of traditional architecture. They create the classic old-world style and are a clear display of class, elegance, culture and sophistication. These windows ensure you get a seamless visual link between the inside and outside of a building, whilst also promoting openness and freshness in airflow.
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 added weight of the sashes (operating shutters) can prevent someone from lifting the window open. The extra weight also helps slow down entry by a burglar due to the force needed to push the window up if there is resistance. 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 maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. The secret is in the way they open. 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!

We install several types of sash windows. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. Here are our top-selling sash windows:
There are many styles of sash windows we offer, including the box sash. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. English in origin, this style became popular due to its efficiency for transferring heat and its lightweight material. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Leyton 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 feature authentic materials and premium decoration options, making them perfect for any style of home. 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.
Window components that have been modified to work with a counterweight are known as spring balanced sashes. Up to 90 degrees of opening can be achieved with a Spring Balanced sash window, much more than other traditional windows.
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. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. A traditional method of using elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ provides sufficient tension for the window to move freely without any hindrance, while still holding in place under all conditions. These factors have made them the best choice for period and timely projects, in addition to their fully weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frame.
These Georgian style sash windows provide extra ventilation and are an excellent choice for those in search of period style sash windows. Installed in period properties, they are a discrete inclusion that adds to their charm.
Detailed work is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Leyton, and the Georgian sash along with the columns and arches are real statements of quality and style. The period design you will receive from us will be made out of top-class authentic parts to ensure quality craftsmanship.
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. The Victorian sash is very traditional, and still make up one of the most common styles of windows today.
Typically there will be a large gap between the bottom edge of the sash and the frame – this is called the reveal, and it naturally creates space that would allow cold air to enter through the frame. In addition to the classic look, ornate crowns and returns can be added at the top and bottom. 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. Finish your period property with this delightful window style today.
Although Edwardian sash windows have long been popular in historic houses, they are also becoming more popular in contemporary homes.

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.
The versatility of aluminium makes it one of the most widely used frame materials. Applied to windows, it provides excellent thermal properties because it is lightweight and rust-resistant at the same time.
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 acrylic finish is applied over the frames to protect them from UV rays, weathering, animal damage, and chemicals that might lead to corrosion.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. 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!
