Sash Horn Windows
Authentic Victorian styling with decorative horn details. Perfect for period properties across Grimsby and Lincolnshire.
Authentic Sash Horn Windows
Sash horn windows capture the charm and character of Victorian architecture with their distinctive decorative horn details. These elegant features, positioned at the bottom corners of the opening sash, replicate the authentic appearance of period timber windows while delivering all the benefits of modern UPVC technology.
Originally, sash horns on timber windows housed the mechanism for the sash weights. Today, we incorporate these decorative details purely for aesthetic authenticity, helping your property maintain its period character while you enjoy improved thermal performance, security and weather resistance.

Sash Horn Windows FAQs
What are sash horn windows?
Sash horn windows feature decorative horn details at the bottom of the opening sash, replicating the traditional design element found on Victorian and Edwardian timber windows. The horns are purely aesthetic, adding authentic period charm to modern UPVC windows.
Why do traditional windows have horns?
On original timber sash windows, the horns were functional - they housed the sash weights or spring balance mechanisms. Modern UPVC sash horn windows include decorative horns to replicate this heritage appearance, making them ideal for period properties.
Are sash horn windows suitable for my Victorian house?
Yes, sash horn windows are designed specifically to complement Victorian and Edwardian properties. The decorative horn details, combined with slim sightlines and period-appropriate hardware, help maintain the authentic character of your home.
Do sash horn windows open the same as regular casement windows?
Our sash horn windows are casement-style windows with decorative horns, meaning they open outward on hinges. If you prefer vertical sliding operation like traditional box sash windows, we also offer sliding sash windows with horn details.
Can I get sash horn windows in woodgrain finishes?
Absolutely. We offer sash horn windows in a range of woodgrain finishes including golden oak, rosewood, and Irish oak, as well as solid colours like white, cream, and anthracite grey.
