Sliding Sash Windows

The external frame of a window is the part which is secured to the walls of your home; this will literally provide a frame for the opening sashes to be fitted in to. Window outer frames and sashes – often rectangular or square, but sometimes different shapes – are made from lengths of UPVC ‘profile’ which is designed to complement residential properties, provide thermal insulation, and be easy to install into the home.

Insulating sections in the outer frame and sash work with the insulation naturally provided by UPVC and the double or triple glazing unit is fixed in place using an internal glazing bead which has additional security benefits.

The outer frame profile has five insulating chambers and the innovative and new sash profile boasts no fewer than six insulating chambers - steel reinforcing can be added into these chambers for additional strength if required.

If you wish to turn your windows into a statement feature of your home, our colour finishes are perfect for you. With options for the colours to be included on both sides of your windows, or just one, there is sure to be a combination which will effortlessly achieve the desired effect.

Cream, Grey, Chartwell Green and Black-Brown are among the most popular and boast the same low-maintenance qualities as our most popular gloss white option. On top of this we also offer dark Red, Blue and Green colour options. All of the colours above showcase a woodgrain texture which mimics the appearance of painted wood to excellent effect. Another option is Whitegrain - white in colour but also featuring a woodgrain texture – which serves as more subtle alternative to our standard smooth gloss white finish.

Woodgrains - Replicating the appearance and charm of traditional timber windows without the associated upkeep we have six woodgrain options which include three timeless classics: Cherrywood, Golden Oak and Mahogany; as well as the increasingly popular Irish Oak and the more niche alternatives, AnTeak and Rustic Cherry. These styles successfully imitate the colour, texture and shading of traditional timber windows but unlike their wooden counterparts, they do not need staining or repainting.
