Single Glazed Sash Windows Ironmongery

Choosing accessories for single glazed sash windows

Single glazed sash windows operate through a beautifully simple mechanism refined over centuries, and the right ironmongery plays a direct role in keeping that mechanism working as it should. Sash pulleys carry the weight of the sash through the cord and weight system, ensuring smooth, balanced movement every time the window is raised or lowered.

A sash lift gives you a firm, comfortable point of grip to do so, protecting the timber frame and glass from the wear of repeated daily handling. The angel vent lock allows you to hold the sash open at a fixed position, letting you make the most of the sash window’s natural ventilation without the sash dropping or compromising security.

Completing the set, the sash catch fastens the two sashes together at the meeting rail – the primary point of closure and, sitting prominently on show, an important finishing detail. All of our window accessories for single glazed sash windows are available across a range of finishes including antique brass, polished brass, satin chrome, and polished chrome, making it straightforward to achieve a consistent, considered look that honours the traditional character of the window throughout your home.
