Timeless Elegance, Modern Performance by Multitrades Windows & Doors
For centuries, the graceful vertical sliding motion of a sash window has been a defining feature of British architecture. At Multitrades Windows & Doors, we honour that tradition while embracing the unparalleled benefits of modern technology. Our bespoke uPVC Sash Windows are meticulously crafted to offer the classic aesthetic you adore, combined with the superior security, insulation, and low maintenance that today’s homeowner demands.
What Are uPVC Sash Windows?
Sash windows, also known as hung windows, are characterised by one or two movable panels, or “sashes,” that slide vertically to open. Our uPVC Sash Windows are engineered from high-grade uPVC (unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride), a robust and versatile material that forms the core of a high-performance window system. We recreate the elegant proportions and fine detailing of traditional timber sashes, but with a 21st-century edge.
Why Choose Our uPVC Sash Windows?
When you invest in a uPVC Sash Window from Multitrades, you are investing in a perfect blend of beauty, performance, and peace of mind.
1. Authentic Aesthetic Appeal
We understand that the look is paramount. Our uPVC sash windows are designed with a deep respect for period properties:
-
Authentic Astragal Bars: Choose from elegant Georgian bars or other period-specific designs, available in integral or applied options to perfectly match your home’s character.
-
Slimmer Sightlines: Advanced uPVC profiles allow for slimmer frames, maximising glass area and creating a more aesthetically pleasing, modern-traditional look.
-
Chamfered Horns: For a truly authentic appearance on Victorian and Edwardian homes, we offer chamfered horns as a standard or optional feature.
-
A Range of Finishes: While uPVC is famous for its brilliant white, low-maintenance finish, we also offer a selection of woodgrain foils, such as Oak and Golden Oak, to replicate the warmth of timber without the upkeep.
2. Unrivalled Energy Efficiency
Modern uPVC is an exceptional insulator. Our sash windows are engineered to drastically reduce heat loss, helping you lower your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
-
Multi-Chambered Profiles: Our uPVC profiles feature multiple internal chambers that trap air, creating a powerful thermal barrier between the inside and outside of your home.
-
High-Performance Double or Triple Glazing: All our windows are fitted with premium double or triple glazed units filled with inert Argon gas and featuring a warm-edge spacer bar. Combined with a Low-E (low-emissivity) glass coating, they reflect heat back into your room while letting in natural light.
-
Superior Weather Sealing: Advanced compression seals around the sashes and frame ensure a completely draught-proof finish, eliminating cold spots and rattling noises.
3. Enhanced Home Security
Your family’s safety is our priority. Our uPVC sash windows are built with security at their core.
-
High-Performance Locking Systems: We fit our sash windows with modern, shootbolt locking mechanisms that secure the window at multiple points along the frame, making them incredibly resistant to forced entry.
-
Reinforced Frames: The uPVC profiles are internally reinforced with galvanised steel, providing immense strength and rigidity to the entire window structure.
-
Trickle Vents: As standard, our windows can include secure, lockable trickle vents for background ventilation, allowing you to keep your home fresh without compromising security.
4. Remarkably Low Maintenance
Bid farewell to the endless cycle of sanding, priming, and painting. Unlike traditional timber sashes that require repainting every few years, our uPVC windows are virtually maintenance-free.
-
Durable and Weather-Resistant: The uPVC material will not rot, warp, peel, or corrode. It is resistant to the harshest of British weather conditions.
-
Easy to Clean: A simple wipe down with a damp, soapy cloth is all it takes to keep your windows looking brand new for decades. We also offer easy-clean hinges that allow the sashes to pivot into the room for safe and convenient cleaning from the inside.
5. Smooth and Reliable Operation
A common issue with old timber sash windows is that they become stuck or heavy to lift. Our modern uPVC sash windows feature a spring-balanced or spiral counterbalance system, ensuring the sashes glide effortlessly and remain securely in position when opened.
Customisation Options
Personalise your uPVC sash windows to perfectly match your home’s style:
- Opening Style: While retaining the classic look, our uPVC sashes offer modern functionality. Choose from:
– Vertical Sliding: The traditional operation where the sashes slide smoothly up and down.
– Tilt Opening: A dual-action feature that allows the sashes to tilt inwards for easy and safe cleaning from inside your property.
- Colours and Finishes: Choose from a wide range of colours, including classic white, cream, and a selection of authentic woodgrain foils (e.g., Golden Oak, Irish Oak) to replicate the look of painted or natural wood.
- Glazing Options: Select from double or triple glazing for maximum thermal performance, or consider laminated or acoustic glass for enhanced soundproofing and security.
- Period Features: Add decorative features like Georgian bars (astragal bars) and run-through sash horns to maintain a traditional appearance.
- Hardware: A variety of handles, catches, and restrictors in different finishes (e.g., polished chrome, brass) are available to complete the look.
High Quality
All our sash windows are built from the highest quality UPVC and are fitted to the highest possible standard. As well as being aesthetically pleasing our windows are designed to be high-security, durable, low maintenance and thermally efficient.
Safe and Secure
Our sash windows have been especially designed to keep intruders out of your home. Two innately robust casement panels provide the base of the window, while an aluminium anti-jenny bar prevents the sash from being forcefully levered open.
Frequently Asked Questions about Composite Doors
While the initial investment can be comparable to high-end timber, uPVC sash windows offer significant long-term savings. You will save thousands of pounds over their lifespan on maintenance, repainting, and energy bills.
Absolutely. Our design service is all about replication and enhancement. We will carefully measure and assess your existing windows to ensure our new uPVC sashes are a perfect match in style, proportion, and detail.
High-quality uPVC windows have a life expectancy of 30-35 years or more. They are incredibly durable and are backed by extensive guarantees, which we are proud to offer on our products and installation.
Planning regulations can be strict. While uPVC is often not permitted on listed buildings, it can sometimes be an option in conservation areas, especially with our authentic designs and heritage colours. We always recommend checking with your local planning authority, and our team can advise on the best approach and provide any necessary technical drawings.
