Aesthetic Appeal

Sliding sash windows are renowned for their classic, traditional aesthetics. They can upgrade the appearance of any building, making them a prime choice for conservation areas or listed buildings where maintaining architectural integrity is important.

 

Versatility

Our sliding sash windows come in a variety of styles and finishes. Whether you opt for a natural wood finish or a sleek paint color, these windows can be customised to suit the existing decor of any home perfectly. Use our free online quoting engine to find the perfect style for you.

Improved Ventilation

The design of sliding sash windows allows for adjustable ventilation. You can open both the top and bottom sashes simultaneously, permitting warm air near the ceiling to escape through the top while cooler air can flow in through the bottom.

Increased Security

Modern advancements have allowed us to integrate enhanced security features into our sliding sash windows, such as locks and reinforced glass, without compromising on the traditional design. At Solent Glass and Glazing, security is one of our top priorities. 

 

Energy Efficiency

Today’s sliding sash windows are not just about aesthetics; they come equipped with double glazing and draught-proofing measures that significantly improve thermal insulation. This upgrade means that while the windows help preserve the look of your period property, they also assist in reducing heating costs and enhancing interior comfort.

Distinctive Style

Sliding sash windows consist of one or more movable panels, or “sashes”, that form a frame to hold panes of glass, which are often separated by glazing bars. The unique sliding mechanism differentiates them from other window types: instead of swinging out, they move vertically (or horizontally in some cases), providing a distinctive style and utility that has been popular for years.

Recognising the diverse needs of our customers, we provide bespoke sliding sash windows that are designed and manufactured to your exact specifications. From the glass to the frame, each element is chosen to suit your specific requirements, ensuring that the final product not only meets but exceeds your expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are sliding sash windows?

Sliding sash windows are a traditional style of window, typically featuring one or more moveable panels that slide vertically past each other within the frame. They are commonly associated with historic architecture, such as Georgian and Victorian properties, but these window styles can be fitted to suit any property.

What is the lifespan of a sliding sash window?

The lifespan depends heavily on the frame material. High-quality aluminium or uPVC sliding sash windows typically last between 25 and 40 years with minimal maintenance. Well-maintained premium sashes can last much longer, often exceeding 50 to 60 years.

What are the benefits of sliding sash windows?

The primary benefits include their classic design, which maintains an architectural look, and excellent ventilation by opening both the top and bottom sashes. Modern versions also offer high energy efficiency, enhanced security features, and easy internal cleaning functions.

How much do sliding sash windows cost?

Costs vary significantly based on material (uPVC being the most affordable), size, and whether the installation is a replacement or for a new build. At Solent Glass and Glazing, we offer free quotes – contact us today!
