Inspired by classic design, they come in a range of styles and finishes, complementing architecture from new builds to period 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.
Traditionally, sash windows have been popular among homeowners because of their classic looks and high energy efficiency. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
The sashes (movable shutters) have an added weight to prevent someone from accidentally lifting the window open. Having the window extra heavy also makes it more difficult for a burglar to break in, since a stronger force is required to lift the window if there is resistance. 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 also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. There is a secret to unlocking them. They are sandwiched between two powerful hardwood sides, which are often weather-stripped or covered with felt and other materials to prevent leaks.
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.
In terms of real estate, a home’s windows are considered to be one of its most valuable assets. As experienced window manufacturers, we know that sash windows are a cost-effective way to enhance the appearance and value of your property. Need help?

We specialise in installing several types of sash windows. Among each type, there are different choices for the number and location of panes per window. Some of the most popular sash windows we offer are:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. There are two vertical wooden or metal sashes of this window, each of which can be opened for ventilation. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. 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. Box sash windows also feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, which provides attractive features that look good from inside or outside your home.
Windows with spring balanced sashes use a counterweight in addition to a balance spring. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, 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. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. 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.
Our Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that is perfect for those who require period style sash windows that provide additional ventilation. Installed in period properties, they are a discrete inclusion that adds to their charm.
At Trade Timber Windows and Doors Norbiton, our Georgian sash is fitted with two sills and arches to create a real statement 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. Victorian sash windows are one of the most popular window styles in today’s market.
The gap beneath the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge is called the reveal, and it lets cold air into the house. Adding ornate crowns and returns to the top or bottom can further enhance the classic look. There is a wide variety of colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a beautiful blue and green stained finish that will complement any exterior. Alternatively, they can be made with single, double, or triple glazing. This delightful window style is a perfect choice for anyone who possesses a 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. 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. 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.
Whenever it comes to windows, wood is the ideal material. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers. Aesthetically and functionally, our wooden frames provide a warm, cosy feel, and they are available in a variety of designs, from modern to traditional.
