Windows - Custom Glaze

Sliding Sash Window Key Features

Authentic Design

Sliding sash windows often replicate the traditional look and charm of historic windows, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of period or heritage properties.

Smooth Operation

These windows are designed to slide effortlessly up and down on a vertical track, providing ease of use and convenience for opening and closing.

Energy Efficiency

Our windows, equipped with modern insulation features such as double or triple glazing and weather seals, help improve energy efficiency and reduce heat loss.

Security Features

Despite their traditional appearance, sliding sash windows incorporate advanced locking mechanisms and security features to enhance home protection.

Low Maintenance

With their durable materials and construction, sliding sash windows typically require minimal upkeep, saving homeowners time and effort on maintenance tasks.

Customisation Options

Customisable by frame materials, finishes, glazing styles, and decorative features, homeowners can tailor these windows to suit their preferences and complement their property's architectural style.

Functional & Stylish

With two framed window sashes on top of each other where one is slid up to open, our sliding sash features work by using a clever set of spring and spiral balancers instead of weights, pulleys, and a cord. Because of this difference, our windows can carry heavier sash weights.

Some of our sliding sash windows have a 35mm meeting rail, which is the slimmest meeting rail available on the market. Because of this,  it looks like a solid piece of timber.

Space-Saving Efficiency

Another key feature of sliding sash windows is their space-saving design. Unlike windows that open outward or inward, sliding sash windows operate vertically within the window frame. This vertical movement allows them to be installed in areas with limited space, such as narrow walkways or balconies, without obstructing the surrounding area. 

Additionally, the absence of hinges or protruding parts makes sliding sash windows an ideal choice for rooms with limited interior space, maximising the usable area and creating a seamless aesthetic. This space-saving design enhances the versatility and functionality of sliding sash windows, making them suitable for a wide range of architectural styles and room layouts for properties throughout Milton Keynes, Northampton, and surrounding areas.

Authentic Appearance

Our sliding sash windows come with lots of design details to mimic the appearance of authentic timber windows accurately. For instance, our windows come with either welded or mechanical corner joints that are constructed in the same way as authentic timber ones – horizontally on the frame and vertically on the sashes.

Additionally, our windows come with sash horns, along with optional slim mullion combinations and sash horns. Our sliding sash windows emulate the appearance of authentic timber windows so well that we are confident that no one will be able to tell the difference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I get a sliding sash window?

Sliding sash windows are a popular window solution because of their ease of use and aesthetic appeal. Because the windows slide vertically, they are easy and convenient to use. Additionally, because sliding sash windows do not open outwards, they are an ideal option for those who live in homes that are smaller, have lower ceilings, or do not have enough space for a hinged window to swing open.

Are your sliding sash windows secure?

Yes, they are. Despite their heritage appearance, our sliding sash windows are designed and manufactured to meet the standards of modern window technology. Additionally, our sliding sash windows come with an optional upgrade to meet the demanding standards set out by PAS 24, Secured by Design, and Part Q for extra peace of mind.

Are sliding sash windows hard to maintain?

No, our sliding sash windows are easy to maintain. Giving your window a wipe down every so often with a damp cloth to remove any dirt and debris will keep your window in good working condition. Additionally, our sliding sash windows come fitted with easy, clean tilting sashes as standard for easy, stress-free maintenance.
