Inspired by classic design, they come in a range of styles and finishes, complementing architecture from new builds to period buildings. Sash windows are effective and practical, allowing natural light to filter into the room while keeping out the cold. Because they don’t move around like other types of windows, they make a great choice for an architect or engineer who wants classic aesthetics and high levels of efficiency.
Traditionally, sash windows have been popular among homeowners because of their classic looks and high energy efficiency. If they are bought and installed correctly, they can help save on energy bills and reduce the effects of draughts easily.
The sashes (movable shutters) have an added weight to prevent someone from accidentally 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 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. 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 several types of sash windows. Each type of window can have many variations in how many panes are in it and where they are located. Some of the most popular sash windows we offer are:
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. Developed in England, this style was popularized for its lightweight and excellent heat transmission. Trade Timber Windows and Doors North-Finchley’s box sash windows are also characterised by a warm and stylish exterior design that blends seamlessly with the architecture of your home. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth 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. Modern box sash windows feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, making them both energy efficient and aesthetically appealing.
Window components that have been modified to work with a counterweight are known as spring balanced sashes. Spring balanced sash windows are capable of opening much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees.
The balance of the window is spring-loaded, so there is no handle to pull, and once it is opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds up to close it, similar to an automatic garage door. Additionally, the double-glazed glass design makes them more energy-efficient. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. These factors have made them the best choice for period and timely projects, in addition to their fully weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frame.
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. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.

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. One of the most popular window styles in today’s market is the Victorian sash.
The gap beneath the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge is called the reveal, and it lets cold air into the house. In addition to the classic look, ornate crowns and returns can be added at the top and bottom.

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.
There are many different types of frame materials out there, but aluminium is the most versatile. It’s lightweight, rust-resistant and, when used in a window, provides outstanding thermal properties.
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. 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. Several natural fibres make up wood, a renewable resource and biodegradable material. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers.
