It has been recommended for new sash windows to allow for a 84mm frame jab, and for frame jambs to be placed on each side and inserted into the wall and in turn which allows the sash cord mechanism to be covered. Regarding the external view, it has been suggested that we allow a 20-30mm of the visible to be facing, whereas the rest is hidden.
During new openings, when the catnic lintels are installed the facing frame-head can be reduced from 84mm to 40mm (it is the frame’s minimum thickness of sliding sash windows). From an external point of view, the overall framing will look symmetric.
