Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. 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 added weight of the sashes (operating shutters) can prevent someone from lifting the window open. Having the window extra heavy also makes it more difficult for a burglar to break in, since a stronger force is required to lift the window if there is resistance. Sash windows are known to be more secure than other types of windows because a burglar must break through the different panes of glass if they want to gain access.
Sash Windows are easy to clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. The secret is in the way 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!
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-effective way to improve the value and thermal efficiency of residential or commercial properties. Need assistance?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. With each type, there are many variations in the number and location of panes per window. 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. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Wanstead’s box sash windows are also characterised by a warm and stylish exterior design that blends seamlessly with the architecture of your home. 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. 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. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider 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. The energy-saving properties of their innovative double-glazed glass design make them even more cost-effective. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. We attribute this to the weather-proof, lightweight, paintable frames we offer, that allows us to serve the needs of time-sensitive and period projects.
We offer Georgian sash windows, which are unique types of windows that fit those with a need for a period style window that also provides ventilation. These components integrate discreetly into period properties and bring a sense of originality to them.
Detailing is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Wanstead and the Georgian sash fitted with our two sills and arches are a real statement of quality and style. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
Classic double-hung windows are Victorian sash windows. By sliding the bottom half up or down, and keeping the top half stationary, the frame can be opened or closed. One of the most popular window styles in today’s market is the Victorian sash.
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 is a wide variety of colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a beautiful blue and green stained finish that will complement any exterior. Alternatively, they can be built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Get this charming window style today to complete your period home.

Our sash windows are available in a range of different frame materials to suit your needs.
uPVC frames provide excellent energy efficiency and resistance to the elements in our Sash Windows.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. The material is lightweight, rust-resistant, and provides excellent thermal properties when used in windows.
Several layers of high-density polyethene (HDPE) with two layers of aluminium create a frame so strong and durable that, when replaced, it will last hundreds of years. In addition to protection from UV rays, weathering, animals, and chemicals that might cause corrosion on the frames, a latex acrylic finish is applied over them to ensure their longevity.
The best window material is wood. The natural fibres of wood are biodegradable and renewable resources. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers. Taking inspiration from traditional and modern styles, Trade Timber Windows and Doors Wanstead’s sash wood frames offer warm, cosy vibes.
