The timber box sash window is one of the most architecturally significant window styles in British building history, and its ironmongery deserves the same level of consideration as the craftsmanship of the frame itself. At the heart of the mechanism, sash pulleys guide the cords that connect each sash to its counterweights within the box frame – a system that, when properly appointed, allows the window to move with effortless precision.
Sash lifts provide a comfortable, purposeful grip for raising the lower sash, sparing the timber and glass from unnecessary stress over years of daily use. For controlled ventilation, our sash vent locks are available in both a standard style and a push variant for ease of single-handed operation, holding the sash securely open at a chosen position without compromising the security of the window.
The sash catch sits at the meeting rail to secure the window when closed, and in a timber box sash window – where the joinery is often a focal point in its own right – it serves as an important finishing detail. All accessories are available in antique brass, polished brass, chrome, and satin chrome, enabling you to select a finish that honours the traditional craftsmanship and period character that timber box sash windows are so well regarded for.
