What is a sash window?

The biggest difference between Sash & Casement designs are the way they open and close. Sash windows usually slide vertically (the most popular version) but can also slide horizontally within the frame. Casement windows open inwards or outwards by means of hinges on either side.

Sash windows are a classic design and offer a traditional and elegant look to a home.

Older sash windows were made from wood and these original timber frame windows suffered from many issues including rattling window panes, drafts, rotting frames and peeling paint. Often the sliding mechanisms would stick, making it hard to open or close the window.

Modern uPVC sash windows do away with these issues resulting in a window that opens easily and smoothly. These uPVC sash windows use modern materials, are energy-efficient, almost maintenance free, long lasting and look like a traditional window.
