The sliding sash window has been with us for over three centuries and the operating principle has remained almost unchanged throughout this time.
Youghal Glass vertical sliding sash windows maintain traditional design elements and mouldings. Our sash frames, meeting rails and glazing bars have been made slim and traditional mouldings have been subtly modified to suit modern construction methods.

Solid brass or chrome pulleys and chains allow the sash to glide smoothly in the sash box and ensure a long life of problem free use. Quadruple draught strips stop rattles and extremely high insulation (1.0W/m2K) glazing units minimise heat loss and down draughts.
Multi-layer timber sections used in the sliding sash window construction minimise swelling and warping during wet weather which causes jamming on windows of lesser quality.
