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. The right ones can reduce draughts and lower energy bills if they are purchased and installed correctly.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. 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 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. They are sandwiched between two powerful hardwood sides, which are often weather-stripped or covered with felt and other materials to prevent leaks.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!
Windows are one of the most underrated and overlooked features of a home and in actuality, have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. If you’re renovating an older building or constructing a new one, sash windows will make the structure more desirable to potential buyers. Need help?

We specialise in installing 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:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. Developed in England, this style was popularized for its lightweight and excellent heat transmission. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. Tapered-rail devices at the window frame add depth by adding additional taper to the rails.
These windows provide unprecedented levels of authenticity, craftsmanship, quality, and personalization. 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. Up to 90 degrees of opening can be achieved with a Spring Balanced sash window, much more than other traditional windows.
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. 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 are a unique type of window that provides additional ventilation and provide a period style sash window. When installed, they are a discrete inclusion that adds an original look to period properties.
At Trade Timber Windows and Doors Old-Oak-Common, our Georgian sash is fitted with two sills and arches to create a real statement of quality and style We make sure the parts we use are of the highest quality to ensure quality work so you can get an authentic design you are sure to enjoy.
Essentially a classic double-hung sash window, a Victorian sash window boasts a classic double-hung design. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
A sash has a natural space between the bottom edge and the frame called the reveal, which naturally encourages cold air to enter through the frame. The classic look can be enhanced further by adding ornate crowns or returns to the top and bottom. You can choose from a range of gorgeous colours for our stunning Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green staining to complement any exterior. They are also available in single, double, or triple glazing configurations. Bring a unique touch to your period home with this delightful window style.

There are different frames available for our sash windows, so you can choose the one that is best for you.
Sash Windows come in uPVC frames that offer energy efficiency and insulation from the elements.
The versatility of aluminium makes it one of the most widely used frame materials. When used in a window, this product provides excellent thermal performance as it’s lightweight, rust-resistant, and corrosion-resistant.
Several layers of high-density polyethene (HDPE) with two layers of aluminium create a frame so strong and durable that, when replaced, it will last hundreds of years. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
Whenever it comes to windows, wood is the ideal material. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable.
