Double hung windows

Double hung windows are a classic choice known for their versatility, aesthetic appeal, and functionality. Double hung windows are probably the most popular timber windows because they have a good weatherproof design. The window sashes remain inside the frame, so they don’t hang out when open. That's why double hung windows can be easily used in areas with limited opening spaces. They are easier to outfit with security, insect screening and privacy solutions.
