Sash windows are the epitome of traditional architecture. They create the classic old-world style and are a clear display of class, elegance, culture and sophistication. 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.
Installed correctly and maintained properly, sash windows are the ideal choice for any homeowner who wants to save energy. They can reduce the impact of draughts and help save on energy bills if properly installed.
The sashes (movable shutters) have an added weight to prevent someone from accidentally lifting the window open. It also makes entry more difficult for burglars as a force is needed to push the window up in the case of resistance. Sash windows are particularly secure and consist of three layers of glass, which makes it very difficult for a burglar to break into the property.
Sash windows are low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. There is a secret to unlocking them. Moveable parts are enclosed between two solid hardwood sides, often covered with an additional layer of felt or weather-stripping to prevent the elements from getting into them.
Our windows are made with a patented technology that eliminates the need for traditional springs. This makes them a lot more durable than other windows, which means that you’ll never have to worry about any springs snapping!
Windows are a vital investment, one of the most visible parts of a home, and a key factor in its overall value. Sash windows do create value in buildings, and because they stay open without the use of any additional equipment, they can ultimately help you save on energy costs. Need assistance?

We specialise in installing several types of sash windows. Each type of window can have many variations in how many panes are in it and where they are located. We have listed our most popular sash windows below:
Box sash windows make a beautiful addition to any home, offering functionality and beauty in harmony. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. English in origin, this style became popular due to its efficiency for transferring heat and its lightweight material. 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.
The windows are made from high-quality materials and decorated with premium materials to fit any home style. 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. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider up to 90 degrees.
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. Due to their innovative double-glazing design, these windows are also 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. 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.
Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that provides additional ventilation and provide a period style sash window. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
A real statement of quality and style, the Georgian sash with its two sills and arches are an important detail for us here at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Upper-Norwood. 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.
A Victorian sash window is a classic double-hung sash window. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Window sashes made in a Victorian style are still among the most common types in use today.
The reveal is the space left between the bottom edge of the sash and the frame, and it naturally creates openings for cold air to enter. In addition to the classic look, ornate crowns and returns can be added at the top and bottom. Our stunning Victorian timber sash windows are available in a wide range of colours, including beautiful blue and green stained finishes to compliment any exterior. As well as single, double, and triple glazing, they are available in a variety of sizes. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.
Edwardian sash windows have long been a mainstay in historic homes, but many people are finding that they work well in contemporary settings as well.
They can be installed in new builds, and they add historic flair to new or existing homes. The distinctive shapes of Edwardian sash windows of the era are outstanding. Several historical features remain unchanged, which makes it unique. Our traditional and authentic Edwardian Sash Windows are not only a symbol of elegance and a refined design but also an investment that will pay for itself many times over with the amount of money you’ll be saving on bills.

There are different frames available for our sash windows, so you can choose the one that is best for you.
A uPVC frame is available for our Sash Windows; these windows provide well-insulated and energy-efficient solutions.
The versatility of aluminium makes it one of the most widely used frame materials. In a window, it provides outstanding thermal properties despite its lightweight, rust resistance, and corrosion resistance.
Using high-density polyethene (HDPE) to strengthen the frame, we sandwich it between two metal pieces to create exceptionally strong and durable sashes. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
The best window material is wood. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. Plus, wood’s low perceived cost and high perceived quality meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Upper-Norwood’s sash wood frames offer a warm, cosy feel and are available in a variety of styles, including modern or traditional.
