About Sliding Windows<\/h2>\n

Sliding windows, also sometimes called gliding windows, are a style featuring two or more sashes. These may open to either side by sliding along grooves set in the frame so that one frame slides directly over the other. Their operation is therefore akin to that of double-hung windows<\/a>, which work similarly though in a vertical orientation.<\/p>\n

In some cases, a third sash is added between the two movable sashes. This is typically a fixed picture window. The three-sash construction is ideal for filling extra-wide walls, delivering increased natural light and a spectacular view of the outdoors.<\/p>\n

Benefits of Sliding Window Installation<\/h2>\n

The best window style for your space depends on your unique needs and preferences. Sliding windows offer a handful of advantages over other options, including:<\/p>\n

Saved Space<\/em><\/h3>\n

Sliding windows are designed so that one pane slides over top of the other, rather than swinging into or out of your home. Because of this feature, they are never any wider than your window frame. They also don\u2019t interfere with furniture. This makes them a great option in homes where space is at a premium.<\/p>\n

Energy Efficiency<\/em><\/h3>\n

Sliding windows fit tightly into their frames, eliminating drafts when they\u2019re closed. With reduced temperature dispersal, you\u2019ll save on energy bills to heat and cool your home. You\u2019ll also reduce your resource expenditure and emissions for a cleaner environmental footprint.<\/p>\n

Low Maintenance<\/em><\/h3>\n

Unlike other window types that utilize springs, pulleys, and other internal mechanisms for opening, sliding windows feature very few moving parts. This means there\u2019s less to maintain (and fewer components that may break down over time). <\/p>\n

Ease of Operation<\/em><\/h3>\n

Sliding windows don\u2019t require much dexterity or strength; simply release the latch and give the sash a gentle push to open or close. Not only is this convenient, but it also makes this style a good choice for those who may find other window types challenging.<\/p>\n

Uninterrupted Views<\/em><\/h3>\n

Because sliding windows move from side to side, rather than up and down, they lack a central crossbar. This means that the window is unobstructed at eye level for clear visibility of the outdoors. In addition, the style is well-suited for extra-wide openings to deliver expansive, horizontal views.<\/p>\n
