Box Sash Windows
Box sash windows are an elegant and traditional form of sash windows. The window ‘box’ or frame houses a system of cords and weights which is used to operate the window.
Wooden Box Sash Windows
Wooden box sash windows are a timeless style of window, and can be seen on many kinds of property throughout the UK. They became popular in the 17th century, remaining the favoured and fashionable choice all the way through to the early 1900s in the Edwardian period. As such, if you own an older home or a period property, the likelihood is you have box sash windows. If you are in need of a window replacement in an older property, timber box sash windows will be a good choice, in keeping with the style of your home.
Our range of box sash windows includes many different designs. We offer a variety of glazing options, window grilles/grids, and woods. Our experts can help you match your sash windows to the period of your property, advising on a style which allows a sympathetic and authentic appearance. Alternatively, if you have a style already in mind, you can choose from a selection of hardwoods and softwoods, sash window horns, and panelled glazing designs.
Traditional Sash Windows
Wooden box sash windows are also known as cords and weights sash windows due to their operating mechanism. These traditional sash windows operate via a counterbalance system where a cast iron, steel or lead weight is pulled by a cord attached to the opening sash. This mechanism is housed neatly in the boxed wooden frame. Due to the traditional mechanism, cords and weights sash windows are generally preferred in conservation areas or listed properties.
