TIMBER SASH WINDOWS

Bespoke timber sash windows, crafted to elevate your home.

At the Window Sanctuary, we offer two different types of sash windows that suit properties of all periods, whether they are Edwardian, Victorian or Georgian.

Traditional Sash Window specialists

As purists, we would recommend traditional sash windows that are made of timber. These include 24mm double glazed units which have the highest energy rating, offering thermal efficiency and compliance with the most-recent building regulations. All of our products are extremely high in quality and will last you a lifetime. They are available in hardwoods such as Red Grandis or Accoya. Our products are subject to a rigorous 5-stage process to ensure that they are protected and don’t twist and warp like old timber can. They are painted and hand sprayed in the factory with 3 coats of micro-porous paint which allows them to withstand the elements with minimum maintenance, so there is no need to paint them for up to 10 years. With over 200 RAL colours to choose from + stock colours, these windows complement and vastly improve the overall look and appearance of your home or building.

Traditional timber sash windows would have had lead weights and ropes at the side and within the frames. The lead weights were there to counter-balance the weight of the sash. The lead weights on the ropes, which pass through the pulleys, allowed the windows to go up and down freely. If the lead weight wasn’t enough, or the ropes were binding, the window wouldn’t open or it might even close too fast.

We recommend either a home visit so we can see your existing space and discuss the use of space/which doors would be right for you or come to our showroom so you can see our windows and doors first hand.

We also offer a visualisation service as we understand that it’s difficult with so much choice to visualise how your new windows and doors will look in your home.
