Slider Windows

Slider windows are thought to have been first developed in Europe over 300 years ago, and are another very popular window type found throughout the U.S. These are typically rectangular windows with a traditional look, and they open and close just as their name implies – by sliding!

Slider Window Design & Features

Slider windows are somewhat similar in appearance to vertically-hung windows, but they’re different in that they open and close by sliding horizontally. Unlike single-hung and double-hung windows with their grid of smaller panes, slider windows typically offer larger, more unbroken views. Single-slider windows have one fixed and one sliding sash, while double-slider windows feature two sashes which can be opened and shut independently.

Here are a few more key features of slider windows:

  • Make use of low-friction rolling sliders, so they’re easier to operate than traditional up-and-down windows
  • Offer wide sightlines and unimpeded views
  • Well-suited for harder-to-reach areas, like behind a kitchen sink or other areas where raising and lowering a vertical window is impractical
  • Modern slider windows are very energy efficient
  • Great solution for ventilation
  • Can be paired with picture windows or other fixed window styles for added functionality
  • Available in many custom shapes, sizes, grille & grid patterns, and colors

More Features & Benefits of Slider Windows

While casement windows are fairly easy to navigate with their built-in crank operation, modern slider windows glide open almost effortlessly with the simple push of a finger. Very user-friendly for children, senior adults, and those with physical impairments! Slider windows offer great ventilation and outdoor viewing possibilities, but what if you prefer a more “classic” look? Grilles can be mounted internally between the panes, and/or externally if you prefer. Slider windows come in many popular frame materials, including wood, vinyl, fiberglass, and combination clad options.
