Vertical Sliding Sash Windows in Dartford, Bexley & wider Kent | Russell Glazing

Perfectly balancing form and function, vertical sliding sashes are a popular option in both domestic and commercial properties of almost all architectural styles. Unlike outward-opening windows, one pane simply slides up over the other when you want to let some air in. This ease of use complements other sought-after characteristics, such as their impressive thermal efficiency when fitted out with quality double glazing.

Russell Glazing manufactures and installs uPVC sliding sashes to your specifications. Configure everything from the hardware, to the glazing and colour/style of the unit itself; while vertical sliding sashes all share a common design, there are many often subtle distinctions that can make them truly yours. Why compromise with generic fixtures when you can get a hold of something that maximises the value added to your property?

While sash windows – usually made of timber – were most often spied in heritage homes throughout Kent, you now spot them everywhere. The versatility they bring to the table, and the fact they’re so low maintenance, means we’re always installing them in homes throughout core service areas like Dartford, Bexleyheath, Bexley, Gravesend, Swanley, Longfield, Sidcup, Greenhithe and Swanscombe.

The Benefits of uPVC

Wooden windows had a quaint and warm look which, unfortunately, was offset by a lack of the pragmatic; when not regularly re-treated they would warp or rot, and would also be easily damaged and splinter. Being made of a synthetic material carefully developed and put to use, uPVC sliding sash windows are immune to most of these issues, and are highly durable to boot.

The chambered design of uPVC sliding sash windows also means they’re great at locking in heat and keeping chilly temperatures at bay. Replacing old, inefficient windows with this modern option can lead to significant savings on energy bills. It can also help shore up potential vulnerabilities when it comes to home security.
