How to Make Your Window Sash and Trim Work Together

One way to make your windows stand out is to ensure your sash and trim complement each other. If you’re wondering how you can achieve better-looking windows, read on.

Contrast Colors

Contrasting sash and trim colors work can make the home look more alive, while also accentuating the windows. This technique works best to break up the facade of tall, large houses. It works better on windows with thick trims than thin trims.

Blend Sash With the Surroundings

You can achieve a more elegant look by blending your sash with your surroundings. This is a great technique if you want a cleaner exterior and can work well with casement windows or double-hung windows.

Dark and Light Tones

Play with different hues on your sash and trim. For example, a white sash with a dark trim makes a really great combination. But keep in mind that newer window units have extra, visible trim elements built-in and therefore may look out of proportion. You can ask your replacement windows provider for guidance.

Always make sure to consult the experts when it comes to the appeal and design of your windows.
