Sash Windows, Nottingham – Basfords Limited

Basfords Limited is a leading supplier and fitter of sash windows in Nottingham and the surrounding area. All of our sash windows are created from high quality PVCu that is A rated for its energy efficiency as well as being strong, durable, secure, and great looking.
The vertical sliding sash window is a period feature in many old homes, but it can also be added to modern properties – the use of PVCu means that a sliding sash window is energy efficient so it reduces your carbon footprint as well as your annual home heating bills.

The Benefits Of PVCu Sash Windows

PVCu offers a number of benefits over traditional wood windows. It is stronger and longer lasting, requiring little to no maintenance in order to retain its great looks. While the frame and glazing will benefit from regular cleaning there is no need to strip, paint, or treat the window in order to enjoy its great looks and unique qualities. PVCu is also weather resistant, able to withstand the climatic pressures that it will almost certainly face without warping, cracking, splitting, or becoming damaged in any way.

Considering Your Security

Security is another area where PVCu offers benefit over traditional wooden sash windows. Whether single or double glazed, wooden windows have proven notoriously easy to break into. PVCu sash windows are reinforced with galvanised steel in order to strengthen them. This not only means that they are more robust and longer lasting but makes them even more difficult to break into. The handles and key locks come in white as standard but you can also choose between chrome or gold and two locks are fitted on windows that are over 1 metre in length.

Safety And Protection

Safety concerns are addressed through the addition of a child safety restrictor which limits the opening of the bottom window to 120mm. An override facility is included so you can open the window wider if desired. All balance weights and other mechanisms and hardware are manufactured from high quality materials that help ensure you enjoy a long life from your sliding sash window and that you enjoy trouble free use throughout this period.

Double Glazing Styles And Designs

Plain glazing is the usual choice for the main rooms in the home, but there are certain situations where extra privacy is required, for example in the bathroom or toilet. Privacy glass can be used in these situations, which relies on the use of patterned or frosted glass. The glazing still allows a very good level of sunlight into the room but prevents people from being able to see in. Privacy glass comes in a wide variety of different patterns and designs so that you can get the look that you want.
