What is the Difference Between Victorian and Georgian Sliders?

When upgrading your home, you want to be sure that the windows you receive are perfect for your home. Although both vertical slider styles look similar, they have design features that set them apart from each other, and make them ideal for any home type. Victorian sliders offer a two-over-two style, meaning you get a window that has two glass panels in the top and bottom part of the window. Georgian sliders have a six-over-six frame, so you get a more grid-like view. 

Each vertical slider option we offer reflects the period they were designed in, so these windows add a timeless elegance to every property they are installed into.

Are Vertical Sliders Suitable for All Property Types?

Vertical sliders are a great window style for any property type. They are perfect for traditional, heritage, or period properties that want to keep their classic feel while upgrading the home’s thermal and energy performance and security. 

These window styles are also great for bringing a touch of elegance and class to newly built properties and improving the property’s aesthetic look and performance.  

Benefits of Vertical Sliders:

Thermal Efficiency

The thermal efficiency of your home is an essential element, especially when investing in new windows. The vertical slider styles we offer can be fitted with double or triple glazing, aiding in fulfilling complete draughtproofing and weatherproofing for your home. They are also manufactured using high-quality uPVC, ensuring that the window profile works alongside the glazing to stop draughts and dampness from occurring within the property. 

Due to the durability of uPVC and the glazing used within the frame itself, you can choose our vertical sliders with the knowledge that they will perform exceptionally well and have a positive impact on the property’s energy bills.

Durability

Our uPVC vertical sliders are inherently strong against adverse weather conditions and force. uPVC does not rot, warp or twist the way that traditional timber does, so when upgrading your property to new windows, you can keep the traditional appearance of your property whilst benefitting from improved durability.

uPVC is also strong against forced entry, making your home safe for the long term.

Tailored to Your Home

The Victorian and Georgian sliders we offer at Window Warehouse are made bespoke for your home, so you can tailor your new windows to perfectly match your current home’s aesthetic and create the dream window for your home. 

Our sliders come in a range of colours and woodgrain foils so that you can create a modern look, or reflect classic architecture with woodgrain foils. These can also have a textured or smooth finish, depending on the design you are looking to create. You can also choose the profile for your window, ensuring that it matches the needs of the home, including the option to choose to recreate a traditional window with a sculptured profile. Optional hardware, including sash horns or Georgian bars, can be added to the window during fabrication, creating a window that is entirely bespoke to your wants and your property.

Improved Functionality

Vertical sliders offer excellent versatility for your home. They open in an up-and-down motion and are fitted with spiral and spring balances, so you can open the window with ease and choose how far open you’d like it to be. These windows should also continue to open with ease for years to come, so you can be sure that you are investing in the long-term of your property. 

Low Maintenance

Our vertical sliders boast low maintenance, due to the uPVC frame. A simple wipe over with soapy water and a damp cloth will keep your new vertical sliders looking brand new for longer. 

Secure

These vertical sliders are also PAS24 tested, so you can be sure that the windows you choose to update your home with will continue to keep your property and belongings safe and secure.
