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 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.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
The sashes (movable shutters) have an added weight to prevent someone from accidentally lifting the window open. 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 maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. The secret to opening them is hidden in plain sight. Most of their moving parts are encased between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, and a layer of felt or weather-stripping encloses them from the elements.
And the best part about our windows is that they are stronger and more reliable than even the highest quality traditional windows! Our reinforced springs prevent sagging and bending, even in the worst conditions, so you won’t have to worry about replacing any parts.
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. Sash windows are a cost-efficient way of giving character and charm to your home. Have a question?

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. Some of the most popular sash windows we offer are:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. Developed in England, this style was popularized for its lightweight and excellent heat transmission. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Stepney creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.
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. A Spring balanced sash window can be opened much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees of opening.
As a result of the spring-loaded balance, there is no handle to pull, and once the window has been opened, it will remain open until enough pressure builds to close it, the same way an automatic garage door does. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. 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. These factors have made them the best choice for period and timely projects, in addition to their fully weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frame.
These Georgian style sash windows provide extra ventilation and are an excellent choice for those in search of period style sash windows. These components integrate discreetly into period properties and bring a sense of originality to them.
Detailed work is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Stepney, and the Georgian sash along with the columns and arches are real statements 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. By sliding the bottom half up or down, and keeping the top half stationary, the frame can be opened or closed. Window sashes made in a Victorian style are still among the most common types in use 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 wide range of colours for our stunning, Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green stains that go well with any modern exterior design. They are also available in single, double, or triple glazing configurations. Finish your period property with this delightful window style today.

You can choose from a variety of frame materials for your sash windows.
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. The material is lightweight, rust-resistant, and provides excellent thermal properties when used in windows.
We manufacture composite sashes from a sandwich of polyethene (HDPE) and aluminium, which makes for a strong and durable frame. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
Wood makes a great window material. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. Plus, wood frames meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!.
