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.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. When specified and installed correctly, they can be a cost-effective way to regulate temperature and minimize the effects of draughts.
The added weight of the sashes (operating shutters) can prevent someone from lifting the window open. The extra weight also helps slow down entry by a burglar due to the force needed to push the window up if there is resistance. 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 easy to maintain, thanks to their design and high-quality materials that retain their integrity for many years. There is a secret to unlocking 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.
Our windows are made with a patented technology that eliminates the need for traditional springs. This makes them a lot more durable than other windows, which means that you’ll never have to worry about any springs snapping!
The windows of a home can have more of an impact on its overall value than anything else. As experienced window manufacturers, we know that sash windows are a cost-effective way to enhance the appearance and value of your property. Would you like some help?

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:
Sash windows are available in many styles, including box sash windows. A traditional style window, it includes horizontal wooden or metal rails that open for ventilation. Developed in England, this style was popularized for its lightweight and excellent heat transmission. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Swiss-Cottage creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. Tapered-rail devices at the window frame add depth by adding additional taper to the rails.
These windows are constructed with genuine materials and come with a choice of high-quality grills and lattices, making them the perfect choice for your home. 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.
Using a spring balanced sash means modifying a window to use it with a counterweight. Unlike traditional windows, a Spring balanced sash window can be opened wider up to 90 degrees.
A spring balance eliminates the need for a handle; once the window is opened, it stays open until enough pressure has been built up to close it, 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. These factors have made them the best choice for period and timely projects, in addition to their fully weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frame.
Georgian sash windows provide additional ventilation and are perfect for homes that require period style sash windows. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
Detailing is important to us at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Swiss-Cottage 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.
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. Victorian sash windows are one of the most popular window styles in today’s market.
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. In addition to the classic look, ornate crowns and returns can be added at the top and bottom. There are many beautiful colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a lovely green and blue stained finish to match any exterior. Alternatively, they can be made with single, double, or triple glazing. Bring a unique touch to your period home with this delightful window style.
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.
You can install them in a new house or renovate an existing one, and they add a sense of history. An important characteristic of Edwardian sash windows is their unusual shape. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that many of its historical features remain intact. Authentic Edwardian sash windows are available in any style and for any job, but they also pay for themselves in the savings on your utility bill often over and over again.
In addition to having lower utility bills all year round, with Edwardian windows, maintaining double glazing will be much easier.

There are different frames available for our sash windows, so you can choose the one that is best for you.
Sash Windows come in uPVC frames that offer energy efficiency and insulation from the elements.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. Applied to windows, it provides excellent thermal properties because it is lightweight and rust-resistant at the same time.
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. A latex finish helps protect the frames against UV rays and weathering, as well as animals and pollutants that can cause corrosion.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. Several natural fibres make up wood, a renewable resource and biodegradable material. Plus, wood’s low perceived cost and high perceived quality meet every standard criterion set by our customers… and can certainly meet yours!.
