Sash windows are a beautiful architectural creation that is often seen as the mark of a traditional style. 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.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. If they are bought and installed correctly, they can help save on energy bills and reduce the effects of draughts easily.
One of these features is the additional weight added to the sash of a window which prevents them from being easily lifted. A burglar also has a hard time forcing a window up if it is heavier due to the additional force required. 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 also very cost-efficient, which is ideal for anyone looking to simply replace their old windows or add more to an existing home. 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.
Here’s what’s even better: unlike other traditional windows, you’ll never have to replace springs once they break!
Windows are one of the most underrated and overlooked features of a home and in actuality, have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. If you’re renovating an older building or constructing a new one, sash windows will make the structure more desirable to potential buyers. Have a question?

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. Some of the most popular sash windows we offer are:
As one of many styles of sash windows we install, box sash windows are among the most popular. 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. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Friern-Barnet 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.
These windows feature authentic materials and premium decoration options, making them perfect for any style of home. Box sash windows also feature triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, which provides attractive features that look good from inside or outside your home.
Using a spring balanced sash means modifying a window to use it with a counterweight. Sash windows with Spring balance can be opened wider than traditional sash windows, 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. Additionally, the double-glazed glass design makes them 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.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. When installed, they are a discrete inclusion that adds an original look to period properties.
Detailing is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Friern-Barnet and the Georgian sash fitted with our two sills and arches are a real statement of quality and style. We use top quality, genuine parts to ensure excellent quality so you can be sure you’ll get an awesome period design.
Classically designed, a Victorian sash window is a double-hung window. To open or close, the bottom half of the frame slides up and down, but the top half remains stationary. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
Typically there will be a large gap between the bottom edge of the sash and the frame – this is called the reveal, and it naturally creates space that would allow cold air to enter through the frame. Adding ornate crowns and returns to the top or bottom can further enhance the classic look. 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. Alternatively, they can be built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Finish your period property with this delightful window style today.
Many people find that Edwardian sash windows look beautiful in contemporary settings as well, even if they were originally built to be used in historical homes.
They can be installed in new builds, and they add historic flair to new or existing homes. The unique shape of Edwardian sash windows makes them distinctive. Several historical features remain unchanged, which makes it unique. Edwardian sash windows that are traditional and authentic can fit any style and any job, but also will pay for themselves many times over thanks to the money you’ll save on your utility bills.
Edwardian windows will take the hard work out of maintaining double glazing, and all year round you can enjoy the benefits of lower utility bills thanks to improved insulation.

The frame material for sash windows can be varied according to the customer’s preferences.
A uPVC frame is available for our Sash Windows; these windows provide well-insulated and energy-efficient solutions.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. It’s lightweight, rust-resistant and, when used in a window, provides outstanding thermal properties.
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. The frames are then painted with an acrylic latex finish to protect them from UV rays, weathering, bird and animal damage as well as chemicals that can lead to corrosion.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. The natural fibres of wood are biodegradable and renewable resources. Plus, wood’s low perceived cost and high perceived quality meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!. Taking inspiration from traditional and modern styles, Trade Timber Windows and Doors Friern-Barnet’s sash wood frames offer warm, cosy vibes.
Our commitment to professionalism is paramount. In addition, we appreciate the need to offer our customers fast and efficient service at a fair price. That’s why we only use experienced fitters who are fully trained to install your brand new sash windows.
