Timber Sash Windows

The invention of the Timber Sash Window has often been credited to Robert Hooke even though it is inconclusive. However, it is the oldest surviving window and was first installed in England in 1670. It is made of movable panels or “sashes,” which can either be one or more. Traditionally, the windows are made of a single pane, but they now are made with an individual sheet of glass or sheets if it is double glazing glass.

How to Facilitate?

To facilitate timber sash window starts with balancing heavy steel to the glazed panel, cast-iron sash weight, lead, or counter-weight merged within the window frame. The sash weight is attached to the window by a chain or braided cotton sash. It is worked on a pulley at the top of the frame. And sometimes, spring balances are used. When a cord is broken from the window, the only means to repair it is to disassemble the window frame parts.

Usually, the sash window is fixed with simple hinges, allowing the window to be locked into hinges on one side. In contrast, the other side counterbalance is detached, enabling the window to be accessible for cleaning or maybe for escape.
