    Redwood or hardwood timber sash windows

    All of our products are manufactured using FSC® 100% engineered laminated timber. We offer redwood (Scots Pine) and hardwood (Dark Red Meranti) and both have the same extensive warranty. When comparing the two materials, our hardwood has more of an open grain structure meaning it gives more of a textured finish, particularly when stained.

    Mock sash timber windows

    We offer both sliding sash look alike (side hung casement) and regency casement (top hung casement) mock sash designs in our range of contemporary lipped casement windows. This style of windows is ideal if you want the sash window look but is impractical because of narrow reveals.

    Sliding Sash Window FAQ's

    How do sliding sash windows operate?

    Sashes slide vertically within the frame. At Bereco we offer cords and weights sliding sash windows, which is a traditional weight and pulley system. We also offer spiral balances which are a tensioned spring mechanism where a coiled spring is discretely concealed inside an encased coloured tube to match the windows finish.

    Do you offer traditional sliding sash windows?

    We offer sash windows in traditional cords and weights or a modern spiral balance method of operation featuring traditional or heritage style mouldings and bars that are perfect for replacement windows or conservation areas in Yorkshire.

    What is the difference between spiral balance and cords and weights?

    They are a completely different opening mechanisms. The cords and weights option has wider jambs to hold the lead or steel weight, but there is no difference in the warranty we offer.

    Do you offer a tilt facility on your sash windows?

    At Bereco we don’t offer a tilt facility. This style of window usually comes with unsightly and non-compressing brush seals that can affect weather performance. However, our cords and weights option is available with an easy clean system that allows the bottom sash to open inwards side hung.

    Can I have hardwood cills on softwood frames?

    Even though we can offer this, both our hardwood and redwood timbers have the same warranty and are engineered from defect-free timber that is preservative-treated and fully factory finished. At Bereco, every individual timber element of our windows is treated with preservatives using the most technologically advanced coating systems from Teknos, which is why we can offer our 30-year warranty against rot and fungal decay.

    Do I have to opt for sash horns?

    No you don’t, it’s completely up to you. But if you do want them we have seven different styles to choose from.
