Sash & Case Windows
Sash and case windows are a traditional style of window that has been reinvented in the double-glazed window era to remove the problems of drafts that were often associated with sliding sashed windows.
Classic sash windows have one or more movable panels (or sashes) that form a frame holding the panes of glass. You can slide the bottom part of the sashed window upwards whilst the top part stays in place. Sash and case windows are often separated by Georgian bars.
Sashed windows are revered for their traditional, stylish look. They are commonly found on listed buildings and can be dated back to the Victorian Era.
Nowadays, modern sash and case windows have been renovated to keep their charming appearance but also remove the chilly drafts that would often flood houses and flats fitted with sashed windows.
If you live in a traditional Victorian property and would like to have your older sash windows updated to double-glazed, please do not hesitate to contact Balhousie Glazing today.
