Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. In addition to their aesthetic value, these windows are excellent from an energy efficiency standpoint, as they allow natural light to filter behind them while mitigating draughts through the frame, resulting in popular choices for modern-day buildings seeking a classic aesthetic.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. It is possible to save on energy bills and reduce draughts by installing them correctly.
Our windows are custom-made with highly durable sashes that make it difficult for unauthorised individuals to lift them. 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 are strong and secure, so they have remained popular today. To break them, the burglar would have to shatter thick glass panels.
Sash windows are easy to maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. There is a secret to unlocking them. Their moveable parts are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weather-stripping in between them to keep out the elements.
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. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. These are some of our most popular window styles:
Sash windows are available in many styles, including box sash windows. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. The box sash windows give homeowners a clean and classic look by enhancing the outlook of any property and are also designed to blend seamlessly with the building structure, making them an aesthetically pleasing choice for homeowners. 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. 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.
Spring balanced sashes are windows that have been modified to allow them to use a counterweight. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider up to 90 degrees.
Its spring-loaded balance prevents a handle from being used, so, once the window is open, it will stay there until enough pressure is applied to force it shut, like an automatic garage door. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. We use the traditional method of elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ to provide tension for the windowpane to move with ease but still hold firm in all conditions. We attribute this to the weather-proof, lightweight, paintable frames we offer, that allows us to serve the needs of time-sensitive and period projects.
Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that provides additional ventilation and provide a period style sash window. 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 Osterley, and the Georgian sash along with the columns and arches are real statements of quality and style. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
Classic double-hung windows are Victorian sash windows. The bottom half of the frame slides up and down to open or close, while the top half stays stationary. 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. 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.
Many people find that Edwardian sash windows look beautiful in contemporary settings as well, even if they were originally built to be used in historical homes.
Regardless of the age of the home, these can add historic style to new or existing structures. The unique shape of Edwardian sash windows makes them distinctive. Several historical features remain unchanged, which makes it unique. Edwardian sash windows that are traditional and authentic can fit any style and any job, but also will pay for themselves many times over thanks to the money you’ll save on your utility bills.
Edwardian windows will take the hard work out of maintaining double glazing, and all year round you can enjoy the benefits of lower utility bills thanks to improved insulation.

The frame material for sash windows can be varied according to the customer’s preferences.
With our uPVC Sash Windows, you will experience energy efficiency and optimal weather protection.
There are many frame materials available in the marketplace and aluminium is one of them. The material is lightweight, rust-resistant, and provides excellent thermal properties when used in windows.
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. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. Natural fibres such as wood are biodegradable and renewable. 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!
