Just About Everything You Can Think Of

What are sash windows? In trying to understand windows, it is important to understand what the basic parts of the window are. An easy to picture comparison would be a door. A door has a casement, and a window has a casement. A door is set within the casement, and a window’s glass pane must also be set within its casement. The glass however, requires an additional frame for obvious reasons. This frame encasing the glass is called the sash. Whether the sash is made to slide or rotate on a hinge is what set s the different styles apart.
