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. 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.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. 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. 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 clean, and their design provides them with minimal upkeep. The secret to opening them is hidden in plain sight. 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.
Here’s what’s even better: unlike other traditional windows, you’ll never have to replace springs once they break!
In terms of real estate, a home’s windows are considered to be one of its most valuable assets. 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 help?

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. Each type of window can have many variations in how many panes are in it and where they are located. These are some of our most popular window styles:
As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. Originating in England, this style was largely popularised due to its lightweight and efficient heat transfer. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Wood-Green creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. It is accomplished by installing a special tapered-rail device that gives the frame extra depth.
The windows are made from high-quality materials and decorated with premium materials to fit any home style. In addition to triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, box sash windows offer attractive features that are visually pleasing whether viewed from inside or outside your home.
A spring balanced sash is a window that has been modified to allow it to be used with a counterweight. A Spring balanced sash window can be opened much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees of opening.
Its spring-loaded balance prevents a handle from being used, so, once the window is open, it will stay there until enough pressure is applied to force it shut, like an automatic garage door. Due to their innovative double-glazing design, these windows are also more energy-efficient. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. These features combined with our fully weatherproof, lightweight and paintable frames, have made them the number choice for period and time-sensitive 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. Installed in period properties, they are a discrete inclusion that adds to their charm.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. The period design you will receive from us will be made out of top-class authentic parts to ensure quality craftsmanship.
A Victorian sash window is a classic double-hung sash window. The bottom half of the frame slides up and down to open or close, while the top half stays stationary. The Victorian sash is very traditional, and still make up one of the most common styles of windows today.
The gap beneath the sash where the frame meets the bottom edge is called the reveal, and it lets cold air into the house. The classic look can be enhanced further by adding ornate crowns or returns to 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 made with single, double, or triple glazing. This delightful window style is a perfect choice for anyone who possesses a period home.

You can choose from a variety of frame materials for your sash windows.
uPVC frames provide excellent energy efficiency and resistance to the elements in our Sash Windows.
Aluminium is one of the most versatile frame materials out there. 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.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. Wood is a renewable resource and is made from biodegradable natural fibres. Plus, wood frames meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!.
