External Timber Doors

• Front Doors
• French Doors
• Single Back Doors
• Bi-fold and Patio Doors

All are made to individual designs using the finest joinery methods for durability and glazed in a way to cut heat loss without compromising on period character. There is a choice of paint and wax hand coated finishes and bespoke detailing to suit every need and taste.

Installation or Supply-only

The Sash Window Workshop offers a full design, manufacture and installation service, alongside repair services, across London and the south of England. Every installation is carried out efficiently by considerate employees who always aim for the minimum of disruption. For other parts of the UK, the company will manufacture timber windows and doors to supplied sizes. Where possible, the windows and doors will be delivered fully assembled in single units.

Secondary Glazing

The Sash Window Workshop has developed bespoke secondary glazing solutions for both sash and casement windows. These systems are designed to provide the benefits of increased energy efficiency and draught prevention without altering the existing windows. This can be particularly useful in listed buildings where double glazing may not be approved. Sliding and hinged secondary glazing systems will be made to individual requirements to fit the configuration of existing windows.

Timber Window Repair and Refurbishment

A draught proofing and overhaul service is available for timber windows and doors across London and the South, with a minor repairs service available for period properties in Central London. The Sash Window Workshop will take care to only recommend refurbishment where its experts believe it will represent a good long-term investment.
