4 Sash Design styles

4 over 4: 6 over 6: 1 over 1: 2 over 2

Very often seen in “period” properties (Georgian, Edwardian or Victorian) one of the classic styling clues are the window dividers (Sometimes referred to as Muntins: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muntin).

The windows may have anything from 2 to 6 panes in each moving sash – see image:

You would normally expect to see both top and bottom sashes of equal height. However, the proportion can be altered if you wish, to an alternate 1/3rd to 2/3rd configuration.

Sash windows are often referred to by the opening function. Subsequently, a single hung version will only have the bottom section opening – a double hung version allows for both sashes to open.
