Sash windows are the classic old-world style of windows with a very traditional feel and are often viewed as the symbol of traditional architecture. 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.
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.
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 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 low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. It takes a certain skill to open them. They are sandwiched between two powerful hardwood sides, which are often weather-stripped or covered with felt and other materials to prevent leaks.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!
Windows are a vital investment, one of the most visible parts of a home, and a key factor in its overall value. Sash windows are a cost-efficient way of giving character and charm to your home.

There are many styles of sash windows we offer, including the box sash. There are two vertical wooden or metal sashes of this window, each of which can be opened for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Spitalfields creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. It is accomplished by installing a special tapered-rail device that gives the frame extra depth.
These windows provide unprecedented levels of authenticity, craftsmanship, quality, and personalization. Triple glazing and warm edge sprigging are also included in box sash windows, which offer attractive features your home can benefit from inside the home or outside.
Window components that have been modified to work with a counterweight are known as spring balanced sashes. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, up to 90 degrees.
Because the balance is spring-loaded, there is no handle to pull, and once the window is opened, it will stay open until enough pressure builds up to push it closed, similar to an automatic garage door. With their advanced double-glazing glass design, they’re also more energy-efficient. The traditional method for providing tension for the windowpane to move with ease while holding firm is the use of elongated slots and wooden springs. The combination of these features, combined with our weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frames have proven to be the most popular 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. Installed in period properties, they are a discrete inclusion that adds to their charm.

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. 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 acrylic finish is applied over the frames to protect them from UV rays, weathering, animal damage, and chemicals that might lead to corrosion.
