Double-glazed uPVC windows, made in Melbourne
Double hung windows
The classic look of a traditional sash window, with the comfort of double glazing. Both sashes slide up and down, and tilt inward so you can clean the outside glass from inside.
Why choose double hung windows
A traditional look
The proportions suit period homes, Victorian and Edwardian renovations, and new homes with a classic style.
Air at the top and bottom
Open the top sash, the bottom sash, or both, to let warm air out and cool air in.
Easy to clean
Both sashes tilt inward, so you can reach the outside glass from inside the house.
No painting
No rot, no sticking sashes and nothing to repaint, unlike the timber windows they often replace.

Common questions
Can double hung windows replace old timber sash windows?
Yes. Double hung windows are a common choice when replacing timber sash windows in period homes, because they keep the traditional look. Our certified installers can handle the removal and installation.
What layouts are available?
A single double hung window, a pair, a double hung window between two fixed panes, or a fixed pane between two double hung windows.
How long does it take to get my double hung windows?
Most jobs take 8 to 12 weeks from approved quote to installation. Timing depends on our production schedule, and on lamination if you choose a colour we don't keep in stock.
Do you install, or supply only?
Both. For new homes, builders typically order supply-only and install using our drawings and installation details. For replacements in existing homes, our certified installers can complete the job for you.
