Inspired by classic design, they come in a range of styles and finishes, complementing architecture from new builds to period buildings. In addition to their beautiful aesthetic qualities, they are very effective in terms of energy efficiency, as they allow natural light to filter behind them while minimizing draughts through the frame, making them an ideal choice for modern buildings that seek a classic aesthetic.
The classic look and excellent energy efficiency of sash windows have made them a popular choice for homeowners for over a century. The right ones can reduce draughts and lower energy bills if they are purchased and installed correctly.
One of these features is the additional weight added to the sash of a window which prevents them from being easily lifted. Due to the heavier weight, breaking in is also substantially more difficult if there is resistance to pushing the window up. 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 clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. It’s all in how they open. 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.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!
The windows of a home can have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. Sash windows are a cost-effective way to improve the value and thermal efficiency of residential or commercial properties. Need help?

We install several types of sash windows. Each window type has many variations in the number and location of its panes. These are some of our most popular window styles:
Box sash windows make a beautiful addition to any home, offering functionality and beauty in harmony. They feature two vertical sashes – upper and lower – that are made from wood or metal and can be opened for ventilation. The heat-transfer efficiency and lightweight nature of this style contributed to its popularity in England. 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. In this case, the window frame is given additional depth by using a unique tapered-rail device.
These windows are crafted from the highest quality materials, providing a classic look and modern soundproofing properties. The triple glazed and warm edge sprigging of box sash windows offer an attractive look from either inside or outside your home.
Using a spring balanced sash means modifying a window to use it with a counterweight. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash 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. 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. These features combined with our fully weatherproof, lightweight and paintable frames, have made them the number choice for period and time-sensitive projects.
These Georgian style sash windows provide extra ventilation and are an excellent choice for those in search of period style sash windows. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
At Trade Timber Windows and Doors Romford, our Georgian sash is fitted with two sills and arches to create a real statement 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.
Classic double-hung windows are Victorian sash windows. To open or close, the bottom half of the frame slides up and down, but the top half remains stationary. The Victorian sash is very traditional, and still make up one of the most common styles of windows today.
There is typically a large gap below the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge – this is called the reveal, and it allows cold air to enter through this space. 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. This delightful window style is a perfect choice for anyone who possesses a period home.

The frame material for sash windows can be varied according to the customer’s preferences.
Sash Windows come in uPVC frames that offer energy efficiency and insulation from the elements.
There are many frame materials available in the marketplace and aluminium is one of them. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
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 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. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers.
