  • Lordship Windows Ltd. professional service
    provider. Sash windows are elegant windows that
    we all have seen in buildings of old
    architecture, especially the Victorian and
    Edwardian buildings. These were believed to have
    originated in England in the late 17th century.
    Robert Hooke is considered to be the person who
    designed the first sash window. And they became
    extremely popular with most buildings in those
    days sporting them. The glass panes were encased
    in timber frames that could slide up and down
    vertically. From England, their popularity spread
    to other parts of the world. Even today, it is
    extremely popular with homeowners for their
    old-world-charm look as well as functional
    convenience.
  • They have a simple yet classic design of two
    horizontal rows containing 3 glass panes in each
    row. Now these two rows are arranged so that the
    sashes or the movable panels can be moved up or
    down. There are certain designs like Yorkshire
    light where the sashes move horizontally but the
    vertical ones are more preferred. The most
    commonly seen design is where both the upper and
    lower sashes move up and down vertically in
    distinctly different grooves within the window
    frame. There is metal stripping often installed
    to support the sashes and keep them steady and
    strong. Windows typically have a cord and pulley
    assembly or a spring balance system to maintain
    the vertical position of the sash when opened.
    This assembly is normally hidden from view.
  • Sash window assembly Sash windows are single and
    double hung usually. In both types of
    installations, there are two sashes. In double
    hung configuration, both the sashes can be
    opened. This is excellent for ventilation. In
    single hung configuration, only the lower sash
    can be moved up and down, whereas, the upper sash
    is fixed. Not very often seen are multiple hung
    configurations like triple or quadruple hung
    configurations that may be used where the windows
    are very tall and span large lengths.
  • You will typically find double hung windows being
    especially preferred for rooms on higher floors.
    This is because due to their structure they can
    provide an effective ventilation system for your
    room. The bottom sash can allow fresh air to flow
    in from outside. And the warm air that is pushed
    upwards gets pushed out from the top sash
    initiating a ventilation cycle that naturally
    cools down the interior. But care must be taken
    to keep the hinges in perfect shape so that the
    sashes do not get jammed or stuck and operate
    perfectly. Also use double glazed sash windows
    for stronger and sturdier glass panes that are
    energy efficient and noise free. Lordship Windows
