What are SlimSash Windows?
Have you ever walked into a room and been struck by how bright and airy the space feels? Chances are, the windows have played a huge role in creating that effect. Windows are a key element in the design and functionality of a home. With numerous options on the market, SlimSash stands out as a popular solution for those who are looking for both style and efficiency in their home, but what are SlimSash Windows?
SlimSash Windows are a type of window design characterised by their ultra-thin frames, offering a sleek and modern aesthetic. Unlike traditional windows that have bulky frames that obstruct views, SlimSash windows maximise the glass area. Featuring a sculpted design, these frames complement a variety of architectural styles while maintaining incredibly high energy efficiency due to their 6-chamber sash construction. Their diverse finishes and woodgrain options allow homeowners to customise their windows according to personal taste and home décor.
Key Features of SlimSash Windows
When it comes to choosing the right windows for your home, it is the details that make all the difference. SlimSash windows are not just about sleek design and modern aesthetics; they’re packed with advanced features that enhance both performance and security.
Internally Glazed for Enhanced Security
SlimSash windows are designed with internal glazing. Unlike externally glazed windows, where the glass can be removed from the outside, internal glazing ensures that the glass is fitted from the inside, making it virtually impossible for intruders to remove the pane without breaking it. This design not only deters break-ins but also provides peace of mind for homeowners.
6 Chamber Sash Profile Construction for Optimum Thermal Performance
The 6-chamber sash profile construction of SlimSash windows is a key feature that optimises thermal performance. These chambers act as barriers, trapping air within the window frame. This design significantly reduces heat transfer between the inside and outside of the home, ensuring that your home remains warm during the winter and cool during the summer.
The multi-chamber construction also contributes to the overall strength and stability of the window, making it more durable and resistant to wear over time.
Slimline Profile Minimises Frame Thickness and Maximises Glass Area
One of the standout features of SlimSash windows is their slimline profile, which minimises the thickness of the window frame while maximising the glass area. This design allows for more natural light to flood into your home, creating brighter, more inviting spaces. Additionally, by reducing the visible frame, these windows help to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor environments, helping you make the most of your property.
High-Impact Modified PVCu to Prevent Cracking with Age or Extreme Cold
SlimSash windows are constructed using high-impact modified PVCu. Unlike standard PVCu, which can become brittle and prone to cracking with age or in very cold climates, the modified version remains flexible and resilient. The durability of high-impact PVCu makes SlimSash windows a reliable choice for homeowners looking for long-lasting, low-maintenance window solutions.
Fully Welded Frame for Enhanced Strength and Durability
The fully welded frame of SlimSash windows is another feature that enhances their strength and durability. Unlike mechanically joined frames, which can weaken over time and may allow air or water to seep through, fully welded frames create a solid, seamless structure that is both airtight and watertight. This construction method provides superior insulation and reduces the risk of drafts and leaks. Additionally, the robust nature of the windows means that SlimSash windows can better withstand daily wear and tear.
This additional rigidity complies with BS7950 standards and also adheres to the stringent PAS 24: 2012 enhanced security standards process, ensuring a high level of security performance
Push-Button, Key Lockable Handles, Available in a Choice of Colours, Incorporating an Additional, Lockable Night Vent Position
For added convenience and security, SlimSash windows are equipped with push-button, key-lock handles. These handles allow you to seamlessly secure your windows with a simple push-button mechanism, and the option to lock them with a key adds an additional layer of security. The handles are available in a variety of colours, allowing you to customise them to match your home’s interior décor. Additionally, these handles incorporate a lockable night vent position, which enables you to securely ventilate your home without compromising safety. This feature is particularly useful for letting in fresh air during the night or when you’re away.
