By removing the lip on the sash horn edge, a new refined sash horn can carry a woodgrain foiled end cap that run seamlessly with the shape of the horn. The sash horn utilises mechanical joints rather than welded to allow the horn to be a continuous part of the sash giving the window a more authentic overall look.
Choose a deep bottom rail if you want your sliding sash windows to look as close to the original timber version as possible. The fully mechanical deep bottom rail convincingly mimics the bottom sash of timber windows from the Victorian era and looks great with run-through sash horns.
The sash window boasts an optional ovolo shaped weather bar, which is the latest of our heritage design features, developed to create an authentic sash window appearance.
Include a bar layout on your new sash windows for added character. Astragal bars are fixed onto the surface of the glass and are accompanied by back-to- back spacer bars inside the double-glazed unit to give the appearance of separate panes.

We offer two different vent solutions to comply with Document F of the building regulations. Both vents are colour- matched to match the aesthetics of our Legacy sash windows. Using the new exclusive modular vent will allow any of our welded sash windows over 775mm in width to comply with the new requirement to achieve 8000 EA airflow in a single window! If a certain rate of equivalent area (EA) is required, please let us know at the point of enquiry.
The frames and sashes are multichambered, using the power of air as an insulator to stop warmth escaping. All our sash windows feature a 24mm insulated double- glazed glass unit with an argon gas insert as standard, which reduces the heat conductance between the panes. This happens because the gas is 6 times denser than air. The warm edge spacer bar incorporated into all units is made from an extruded PVC material and has been specifically designed to reduce transference of heat between the panes of glass keeping more heat inside the property. These thermal efficient elements work together to enable our Legacy sash windows to achieve an outstanding energy rating of ‘A’ and u-value of 1.4W/m2K as standard.
