Timeless Victorian, Georgian & Edwardian Sash Windows for Kent Homes
Whether you own a Georgian townhouse in Canterbury, a Victorian terrace in Maidstone, a country cottage in the Weald of Kent, or a period property near Tunbridge Wells, traditional timber sash windows are an integral part of our county's architectural heritage.
However, original timber sashes famously suffer from cold draughts, rattling panes, rot, and high maintenance costs. Future Double Glazing supplies and installs state-of-the-art uPVC vertical sliding sash windows that replicate authentic 19th-century joinery down to the millimetre—offering zero maintenance and elite modern insulation.
Authentic Heritage Features Engineered for Conservation Compliance
To pass strict aesthetic standards and local council guidelines across Kent's conservation areas, our sliding sash collection incorporates authentic historical details:
-
Authentic Run-Through Sash Horns: Sculpted directly into the frame structure as a continuous, seamless piece—never stuck-on plastic.
-
Ultra-Slim Meeting Rails: Replicates elegant, narrow timber profile lines to maximize natural light and maintain historical proportions.
-
Deep Bottom Rails: Mirrors the heavy timber base proportions found in traditional Victorian and Edwardian joinery.
-
Astragal & Georgian Glazing Bars: Authentically mounted onto the surface of the double-glazed unit for an authentic multi-light appearance.
-
Mechanical Frame Joints: Replaces diagonal plastic welds with crisp, 90-degree mechanical joinery that mimics handcrafted timber.
A+ Rated Thermal Efficiency & Slide-and-Tilt Functionality

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "An incredible upgrade for our country cottage!"
"We were so nervous about replacing the original windows on our cottage in the Kent countryside, but Future Double Glazing was brilliant. The new uPVC sash windows look exactly like the old timber ones—right down to the woodgrain texture and sash horns. The house feels instantly warmer and draft-free."
— Eleanor & Simon V., Weald of Kent
Frequently Asked Questions About Sash Windows in Kent
Are timber-alternative sash windows accepted in Kent Conservation Areas?
In many cases, yes. Local planning authorities across Kent (such as Maidstone Borough Council, Canterbury City Council, and Sevenoaks District Council) strictly regulate alterations in conservation zones. Our timber-alternative sash windows feature authentic deep rails, run-through horns, and mechanical joints specifically engineered to meet sympathetic replacement criteria.
How do uPVC sliding sash windows compare to real timber?
They deliver the exact visual charm, traditional colours, and proportions of real hardwood without warping, rotting, or swelling. They require no expensive painting cycles—just a simple wipe with soapy water to look brand new indefinitely.
What colour finishes and woodgrains are available?
In addition to classic White Woodgrain and Cream, we offer popular heritage shades including Agate Grey, Chartwell Green, and modern Anthracite Grey. Dual-colour options are also available, allowing a heritage shade on the exterior and a clean white finish indoors.
