Arched & Swept Windows



Arched sash windows bring a timeless elegance and distinctive character to any property, enhancing both traditional and contemporary architectural styles. The graceful curves of an arched sash window create a visually striking feature while maintaining the classic charm of sliding sash functionality. With ECOSlide®, shaped sash windows can be expertly fabricated to meet your exact specifications, ensuring a perfect fit for your home or project. These windows combine aesthetic appeal with modern performance, offering excellent energy efficiency, durability, and low maintenance. 

Whether used to complement period architecture or add a unique design element to a modern build, arched sash windows are a versatile and stylish choice. There are three common arched sash window shapes: Gothic, Swept, and True Arch. Each of these shapes can be tailored to suit specific design requirements, allowing for creative freedom while maintaining the authenticity of sash window aesthetics.




Swept Head Arch Windows


With a gentle, curved arch at the top, this design creates a softer, more subtle appearance. It’s an ideal choice for homeowners seeking a blend of classical beauty and understated elegance. The Swept Arch has a gentle, flowing curve that blends seamlessly with traditional and heritage properties, offering a softer and more understated elegance.





True Arch Windows 

These feature a fully rounded arch, embodying timeless grace. Often used in Georgian or Victorian-style homes, they bring symmetry and balance to the overall design. The True Arch, a perfect semicircle, provides a balanced and symmetrical appearance, making it a popular choice for Georgian and Victorian-style homes.




Gothic Arch Windows 

 

Featuring a pointed arch at the top, these windows exude historic elegance often seen in period properties, churches, and traditional architecture. The dramatic shape makes them a perfect fit for a bold, heritage-inspired look. The Gothic Arch features a dramatic pointed arch, often associated with historic and ecclesiastical buildings, adding a sense of grandeur and height to a façade. 


A key feature of arched sash windows is that the top sash is typically* a fixed frame, meaning it does not open. This design ensures structural stability while preserving the window’s elegant curved form. The bottom sash, however, remains operable, allowing for controlled ventilation and ease of use. The fixed upper sash also enhances the window’s thermal efficiency by minimizing potential air leakage, making it an excellent option for energy-conscious homeowners. With ECOSlide®, these beautifully shaped sash windows are expertly engineered to combine traditional craftsmanship with modern performance, ensuring lasting beauty and functionality.  


*Please enquire with your ECOSlide® supplier for cases where top sash can be sliding.
