Core Features

Low Maintenance

You won’t have to polish them or apply any varnish coats, however, you need to apply one occasionally. A metal or plastic sash window has little chance of warping or rot, making it an excellent alternative for windows in difficult-to-reach areas.

Easier to Clean

A sash window is simple to clean because you can raise up the bottom sash so that it is at the same level as the top sash. This way you can wipe down both panes of glass without getting on a chair or ladder which could be dangerous.

Inward Opening

Apart from being easy to clean, they also open inwards which means that they allow fresh air into your home or office rather than just letting out stale air. This will keep your room fresher for longer even when you are not there!

Double glazing & triple sealing system

The benefits of double glazing & triple sealing system are that it’s energy-efficient and it reduces noise levels inside the home. With this, there is no need to worry about your heating bill increasing in winter and you’ll be more comfortable in your own space without any distractions from outside noise.

Various glazing bar patterns

Glazing bars are a vital element in the design of a sash window. Given that there are different styles and patterns of glazing bars, it is essential that they are chosen carefully to match the style of the building. Sash windows have the ability to control the amount of light that comes through, depending on how it is positioned.

Durable Performance

Sash windows are also known to be quite durable. They will not warp or twist like other types of windows due to their design. Plus, a sash window will increase the durability of your home in two ways. Firstly, they will reduce the chances of your house getting damaged by natural calamities like earthquakes or tornadoes. Secondly, they will reduce the din of noise that you hear outside because these windows are airtight and soundproof.

What is the difference between a casement window and a sash window?

Casement windows open on hinges, whereas sash windows use a pulley system to move over one another. While casement and sash windows are the most popular, they are available in a variety of styles that should be carefully chosen depending on the sort of house you possess.

How long do sash windows last?
Windows can be made out of various materials, such as vinyl, aluminum or wood. It is important that you know how long the window will last before you make a purchase decision. For the life span of a sash window depends on how well it has been maintained and cared for over the years. The condition of the building in which they are installed also plays a role in how long they will last.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace sash windows?

When it comes to sash windows, the answer is not so straightforward. The answer to this question depends on many factors, such as the condition of the window and how old it is, and what you will need to do in order to make it work properly.

If your window has been altered from its original form, you may have to replace it. For example, if your window no longer opens up all the way because someone removed a few inches from each side of one sash or replaced one or more parts with a different material then you will have to replace them instead of just repairing them. Another thing that may require replacement is if there’s evidence of water leakage in the frame around the sash because this indicates damage beyond what can be repaired.
