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. These windows ensure you get a seamless visual link between the inside and outside of a building, whilst also promoting openness and freshness in airflow.
Installed correctly and maintained properly, sash windows are the ideal choice for any homeowner who wants to save energy. The right ones can reduce draughts and lower energy bills if they are purchased and installed correctly.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. 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 also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. It takes a certain skill to open 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.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!
In terms of real estate, a home’s windows are considered to be one of its most valuable assets. Sash windows are a cost-effective way to improve the value and thermal efficiency of residential or commercial properties. Need assistance?

We specialise in installing several types of sash windows. Each window type has many variations in the number and location of its panes. We have listed our most popular sash windows below:
Sash windows are available in many styles, including box sash windows. There are two vertical wooden or metal sashes of this window, each of which can be opened for ventilation. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. It is accomplished by installing a special tapered-rail device that gives the frame extra depth.
These windows feature authentic materials and premium decoration options, making them perfect for any style of home. The triple glazed and warm edge sprigging of box sash windows offer an attractive look from either inside or outside your home.
Windows with spring balanced sashes use a counterweight in addition to a balance spring. 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. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. A traditional method of using elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ provides sufficient tension for the window to move freely without any hindrance, while still holding in place under all conditions. 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 Walworth, and the Georgian sash along with the columns and arches are real statements 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.
Essentially a classic double-hung sash window, a Victorian sash window boasts a classic double-hung design. Open or close the frame by sliding the bottom half up or down, while the top half stays stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
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. You can further enhance the classic look by adding large, ornate crowns. 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. Alternatively, they can be made with single, double, or triple glazing. Finish your period property with this delightful window style today.
