Vertical Sliding Aluminium Sash Windows
Classic Style, Contemporary Strength – Aluminium Sash Windows That Endure
At UGS Ltd, our aluminium sash windows (also known as vertical sliders) offer a refined, modern alternative for homeowners who value both elegance and long-lasting performance. Aluminium is renowned for its strength, weather resistance, and minimal upkeep, making it a superb material for vertical sliding windows. With their smooth sliding action and timeless appeal, aluminium vertical sliders provide excellent ventilation, security, and functionality—suiting both period-style and contemporary homes with ease.
Aluminium sash windows feature advanced thermal break technology to reduce heat transfer and enhance insulation. When paired with high-performance glazing, they help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round—lowering energy bills and supporting a more sustainable home. Their slim, stylish frames allow for generous glazing areas, flooding your interior with natural light and contributing to a brighter, more open living space.
One of the key benefits of aluminium is its resistance to rust, corrosion, and warping, making it a long-lasting and low-maintenance solution. Aluminium sash windows require very little upkeep, retaining their appearance and function without the need for regular treatments or repairs. Available in a wide variety of colours and finishes—including durable powder-coated options—aluminium vertical sliders can be tailored to suit both classic and modern property styles.
At UGS Ltd, we supply premium aluminium sash windows that combine timeless design with exceptional performance. These vertical sliders are built with security in mind, featuring strong, durable frames and multi-point locking mechanisms to enhance safety and peace of mind. Whether you're restoring a traditional façade or upgrading to a more efficient window system, aluminium sash windows offer the ideal blend of elegance, resilience, and practicality.

Profile
At UGS Ltd, we supply and install Aluminium Sash windows in Standard profile that offers a unique blend of style and performance.
Standard Profile Specifications
Standard Profile Specifications
At UGS Ltd, we are proud to supply aluminium sash windows crafted using leading systems from Schüco, Reynaers, Cortizo, and Smart Systems. These premium profiles ensure that every product we deliver meets the highest standards in durability, design, and thermal performance. Our vertical sliders are manufactured using a Standard aluminium profile, purpose-built for strength and functionality while maintaining a sleek, traditional appearance.
The standard profile is typically constructed with a frame depth of 70–75mm and sightlines ranging from 42mm to 60mm, allowing for an elegant balance between frame and glazing. This ensures that each window maximises the visible glass area, drawing in more natural light while preserving the classic proportions expected of traditional sashes. Inside the frame, multi-chamber thermal break technology enhances energy performance, complying fully with Part L Building Regulations.
Unlike older, bulkier frames, our standard aluminium sash profiles provide a refined aesthetic suitable for both heritage properties and modern builds. These vertical sliders are highly resistant to warping, corrosion, and weather damage, offering long-term performance with minimal maintenance.
Despite their robust construction, our aluminium sashes retain the graceful operation of traditional sliding windows, with smooth glide mechanisms and optional tilt-in cleaning functions for convenience. They are also compatible with double or triple glazing, making them a practical solution for enhancing insulation and noise control.
A wide range of powder-coated finishes and bespoke hardware options are available, allowing homeowners and developers to customise each unit to suit both interior and exterior styles. Whether you are renovating a period home or designing a contemporary space, our standard profile aluminium vertical sliders offer the ideal combination of classic charm and cutting-edge performance.
At UGS Ltd, our sash windows (vertical sliders) are available with both double and triple glazing options to provide superior energy efficiency and comfort for your home. Whether you choose double or triple glazing, both offer excellent thermal insulation and noise reduction, making your home more comfortable and energy-efficient year-round. For enhanced performance, our glazing units can be filled with argon gas, an inert gas that increases thermal efficiency by reducing heat transfer through the glass. Argon-filled windows also help to reduce condensation buildup and improve overall energy savings, ensuring a warm, comfortable environment while lowering energy bills. For character properties or listed buildings where replacing the original windows is not possible, secondary glazing units are the ideal solution. They preserve the exterior charm while significantly improving insulation and noise reduction. To learn more, visit our Secondary Glazing Unit page for more details on how this can be the perfect upgrade.
