Sash windows use the traditional vertical sliding design where they feature two vertical sliding panels that move within the window frame. They are often called:
· Sliding Sash windows
· Hung Sash windows
· Box Sash windows
Timber Box Sash windows have withstood the test of time as the preferred window model in the UK. Contrary to common misconceptions, timber sash windows can exhibit longevity spanning across many years to come. There are examples of said windows which have lasted for 100 years as they have been taken care of properly.
Benefits of these windows are:
1. They let a lot of light through the large, glazed surface area.
2. Strong by design (we manufacture our products in hardwood only).
3. Unlike casement windows they can’t be blown opened or closed.
4. Both vertical panels are easy to open which allows for good air flow.
At International Windows Group LTD, we exclusively offer top-tier box sash windows renowned for their exceptional quality throughout London. Our products are a perfect mix of great materials and modern technologies, complemented by years of invaluable experience that has earned the trust of numerous clients. We assure clients of long-lasting longevity for their windows by spraying four layers of waterproof paint on our products.
Additionally, our windows are compatible with conservation area by using Victorian style design.
