Sash windows are a traditional and elegant style of window that has been used for centuries. They are characterised by one or more movable panels, known as sashes, which can be slid vertically or horizontally to open or close the window.
Sash windows not only contribute to the architectural charm of a building but also provide practical benefits such as effective ventilation and easy maintenance. The choice of a specific type of sash window often depends on the architectural style of the building and the desired functionality.
There are several types of sash windows, each with its own unique features and characteristics. Here are some of the most common types:
This is the most basic type of sash window. Only the bottom sash is movable, while the upper sash remains fixed. It provides ventilation through the lower part of the window.
Both the upper and lower sashes are movable, allowing for more flexibility in ventilation. This type is popular in traditional and colonial-style architecture.
Rather than sliding, casement sash windows open outward on hinges. They provide a wide opening for ventilation and are often seen in Tudor and Victorian architecture.
These are typically large windows with three sections forming a bay shape. Each section may have its own set of sashes, adding a decorative element to the architecture.
Typically feature six-over-six or eight-over-eight pane configurations. Symmetry is a key design element in Georgian sash windows.
Combine elements of both Georgian and Victorian styles. Often have a simpler design with large panes of glass for maximum light.
These windows can be tilted inwards at the top for ventilation or swung open like a casement window. Commonly used in modern architecture for versatility and ease of cleaning
Also known as sliding sash or box frame windows. Characterised by a counterweight system that helps balance the weight of the sashes, allowing for smooth operation. Commonly found in Georgian and Victorian architecture.
Traditional sash windows that use a system of pulleys and weights hidden in the window frame to counterbalance the sashes. This design has been widely used in historic buildings.
