A sash window is one with two frames that can both slide vertically, thus allowing for greater airflow. The sash itself is composed of panels of glass, individually called lights. The traditional sash window is made of multiple square lights held together by a grid of bars.
A sash is technically the frame that holds the pieces of the window together as a single component. As opposed to a window in which the frame is built into the wall, the sash makes the glass independent of the wall and lets it move. you can be sure that your new windows will make your home complete.

If you are looking to double glaze existing sash windows and are looking for a more affordable option, then we’d suggest considering secondary double glazing. Secondary double glazing fits over your existing sash windows, providing extra warmth and sound insulation.
Yes, secondary glazing will provide your existing sash windows with additional soundproofing. However, windows with a higher energy rating tend to also come with better soundproofing. If you’re not sure which option is right for you, please talk to our team and we’ll be happy to explain the differences and benefits.
