What is a Sliding Window?
How it Works
Sliding windows glide open horizontally from one side to the other. Sliding on a track, they require no extra space to operate. Sliding windows offer easy and controlled access to fresh air and provide excellent energy efficiency when closed.
Ideal Location
Sliding windows work well along patios, porches, tight walkways or anywhere you wouldn’t want an outward swinging window. Popular in contemporary- and modern-style homes, sliding windows feature clean lines and sleek designs. They can feature large panels of unobstructed glass to fit spacious horizontal areas on a wall.
Design Style
Adding grilles creates a sophisticated and timeless look that pairs nicely with more traditional homes.
