Sash Windows

Delving into history, we can discover that the sliding sash window first rose to prominence in the 16th century, its-vertical-opening design winning it lots of acceptance. Configured to include two sashes, one of which is situated slightly ahead of the other, you can smoothly manoeuvre the window up and down, as most owners of period dwellings will already be conscious of. Orion’s Extreme sliding sash windows very much obey this traditional arrangement and incorporate contemporary technology.

Energy-efficient glass is implemented to occupy the sashes so that our customers are rewarded with optimal comfort from the very beginning and this will not abate. Triple glazing is an optional upgrade if you wish to further maximise heat retention.

Everywhere around you see white-coloured windows, which is no criticism, but it does little to differentiate one home from the next. Extreme’s colour palette includes white (how could it not!), but is also encompassed of shades and tones outside of this classic colour, all ridiculously easy to clean and care for.

Chartwell Green is a hue that evokes thoughts of the countryside and luscious green landscapes, while Matt Black indicates boldness. In the event of you experiencing difficulty picking a finish, it may be helpful to be aware that you can have dual-colour windows, with differing finishes on the internal and external frames.

Extreme sliding sash windows not charming enough for you? They will be once you’ve had us assimilate some leaded, astragal or Georgian bars. We can arrange the bars in different configurations according to your taste.

As well as adding some beautiful decoration to the windows, the bars will almost certainly underline the window enhancements to visitors and people walking by.

Handle selection is a fundamental part of window accessorising and the aim should be to pinpoint a handle that magnifies the design and coheres with your house.

Much security is designed into the handles, each option featuring integral constituents. Get an advisor at Orion to outline what the job of each constituent is, whether your appointment is held face to face or remotely.

It could take some time for you to decide how to furnish your sash windows as there are a string of potential hardware accessories available for the range. There are so many variations of handles, hinges, and pulls, and they all offer something different, both in terms of their appearance and functionality.

Each individual glazing type for sliding sash windows is different, but they’re indistinguishable in their collective ability to yield thermal efficiency, capture natural light and exhibit elegance. Technology is at the forefront of all our glazing, plain and privacy included.

Supplementary benefits extend to superior insulation and soundproofing, transforming homes into warmer and quieter confines. If you don’t know what glazing to get, seek direction from one of Orion’s friendly advisors.
