Sash Windows
The sash window, strictly speaking, is a very common model. It consists of two glazed panels, one or both of which open and close vertically. Windows like these—also called vertical sliding windows or guillotine windows—add an impressive, distinctive architectural element, echoing the integration of bourgeois homes of the past into the modern era.
Inspired by traditional British and North American homes, classic sash windows charm with their smooth vertical opening, traditional aesthetics, and adaptability for both the renovation of old houses and the construction of contemporary buildings with character. Mestre Raposa offers you bespoke wooden sash windows with high-performance double glazing, Georgian bars, and superior-quality finishes. A refined solution that combines classic charm with modern comfort.
