How making sash windows is totally different to making casement windows

It won’t come as a surprise to many homeowners that in order for our Rose Collection to achieve their uniquely traditional aesthetic, the manufacturing process involved is more akin to traditional carpentry methods as opposed to typical uPVC engineering. Sash window manufacturing, although full of small details, can make a big change to the overall aesthetic to your property.

A traditional way of manufacturing for a traditional aesthetic

Whether it be the Charisma, Heritage or even the Ultimate Rose variant of our vertical sliders, all of our windows are manufactured using techniques more akin to carpentry rather than an industrial, more machine-based process. Despite being engineered from uPVC, these traditional techniques slowly come together to achieve a successful heritage visual style that helps compliment any home.

Using mechanical joints as an example, much like the way in which timber sash windows are part of British history, mechanical joints used to manufacture them are held to the same cherished standard. At Roseview, we offer this technique as well as the more modern welded option for those who wish to retain the true visual style of timber sash windows.

Casement manufacturing versus sash manufacturing

Whereas casement windows lack such intricate details and features as a run-through sash horn, our Ultimate Rose includes this aspect within the profile of the frame itself, as opposed to being stuck on as an afterthought. Casement windows can fail to give homes the charm they deserve, usually suffering from thin frames. Our sash windows easily solve this problem, incorporating original design features of a timber sash, made possible thanks to more traditional manufacturing techniques.

To be fair, modern casement windows are not typically designed and engineered to replicate an authentic version of their past variants, whereas most homeowners seeking sash windows often desire some degree of authenticity. Roseview regularly keep this in mind when manufacturing our highly detailed range of uPVC sash windows to achieve the best result possible.

Extra care and attention that makes for an authentic result

All of our Rose Collection products are handcrafted to your specific dimensions by us in our Olney factory, going through various stages of product quality testing to always ensure they are of a high standard.

The result is a mechanically jointed, vertical sliding sash window, designed to replicate Georgian and Victorian box sash windows, all handmade to bespoke sizes that can fit any aperture by our experienced team at Roseview.
