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. They are also very effective from an energy efficiency point of view, as they allow natural light to filter behind them whilst mitigating draughts through the frame, often making them popular choices for modern-day buildings looking for a classic aesthetic.
Installed correctly and maintained properly, sash windows are the ideal choice for any homeowner who wants to save energy. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
One of these features is the additional weight added to the sash of a window which prevents them from being easily lifted. 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 strong and secure, so they have remained popular today. To break them, the burglar would have to shatter thick glass panels.
Sash windows are low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. The secret is in the way they open. To reduce the risk of rust, the moveable components are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weatherstripping in between.
It also won’t need any spring replacement once it snaps, unlike other traditional windows!
The windows of a home can have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else.

We specialise in installing several types of sash windows. Each window type has many variations in the number and location of its panes. Here are our most popular sash windows:
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. The heat-transfer efficiency and lightweight nature of this style contributed to its popularity in England. 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.
Using a spring balanced sash means modifying a window to use it with a counterweight. Up to 90 degrees of opening can be achieved with a Spring Balanced sash window, much more than other traditional windows.
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. 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. Combined with lightweight, weatherproof, and paintable frames, our products have become the top choice for time-critical 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 additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.

Double-hung sash windows can be described as Victorian sash windows. 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.
A sash has a natural space between the bottom edge and the frame called the reveal, which naturally encourages 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 range of gorgeous colours for our stunning Victorian timber sash windows, including blue and green staining to complement any exterior. They are also available in single, double, or triple glazing configurations. This delightful window style is a perfect choice for anyone who possesses a period home.

Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. When used in a window, this product provides excellent thermal performance as it’s lightweight, rust-resistant, and corrosion-resistant.
Our composite sashes are made of a high-density polyethene (HDPE) core sandwiched between two pieces of aluminium creating an extremely strong and durable frame. 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.
