What is a Box Sash Window?

People who are talking about old-fashioned, single-pane windows in a typical residential, period building use the term box sash window. The side pane is fixed and the window opens onto the inside of the building, unlike modern double-glazed windows that open outwards from hinges set into the frame.

Traditional box sashes were often painted white on two sides to reflect sunlight from the inside of the house but they can also be unpainted wood to allow the quality and natural grain of the wood to show through. If you like the authentic traditional charm of box sash windows, you are on the right page. We have what it takes to install long-lasting box sash windows in your Brighton property.

Features of our Box Sash Windows

sep_img

  • Weights and Pulleys

    All windows are fitted with a counterweight on the outside to compensate for the weight of the window within the frame. Weights are particularly important in multi-sash windows as this allows even balancing and then contributes significantly to the performance of our frames.

    All sashes have stainless steel pulleys, backed up with a heat-treated roller chain, making them durable, maintenance free and easy to use.

  • Independently Tested

    Our box sash windows are with high-quality timber and the best quality hardware. We are highly recommended throughout Brighton.

  • Guaranteed Performance

    When you buy an e-commerce product, online retailers often offer just a few of the usual guarantees. Not at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Glazing. At least a 10-year performance guarantee protects all our products.

    We’re so confident in the quality of our Box Sash Windows that we’re prepared to give you your money back if they ever let you down. All of our windows have been manufactured to a very high standard. We offer a full guarantee on every window we make. As a result, we are able to provide a guarantee of 40 years for the paint finish.

  • Internal Beading

    The majority of our windows have internal beading. This creates a smooth appearance, enabling paint to easily go over the surface of the window casing and provides a clean finish for your home. The traditional bead and cell is an essential feature in our sash windows. It holds the glass firmly in place, provides a weather seal and brings out the character of a wooden window.

  • Double Draught Sealed

    Draught Proofing is an important factor in the design of all our Box Sash Windows. They are double-sealed, sash-to-sill with a side-hung slotted ventilator above and below to remove warm air through the frame and seal the window tightly against winter draughts.

  • Lockable Fitch Fastener

    The lockable Fitch fastener on our box sash windows is a unique and invaluable security feature. In case of any unwanted entry, this lock will prevent the window from opening fully. The lockable fitch fastener can be locked back from the outside reducing the risk of theft and vandalism. Call us today on 01273 257 597 to get more information on our Box Sash Windows.
