What Are Sliding Windows?

Sliding windows, also known as gliding windows or slider windows, are types of windows that open horizontally along a track. They consist of two or more sashes, or panels, that slide past each other within the window frame to open or close. One or more of the sashes are typically fixed in place, while the others can be moved horizontally to allow for ventilation or to access the exterior.

Why Choose to Install Sliding Windows?

  • Ease of Operation

    Sliding windows operate smoothly along their tracks, making them easy to open and close with minimal effort.

  • Space-Saving Design

    Since sliding windows open horizontally rather than swinging inward or outward, they don't take up a lot of space inside or outside the home, making them ideal for rooms with limited space.

  • Versatile Ventilation

    Sliding windows can be partially or fully opened to allow for customizable ventilation, helping to regulate indoor airflow and temperature.

  • Unobstructed Views

    Sliding windows typically have large glass panes and minimal framing, providing expansive views of the outdoors and maximizing natural light entry into the home.

  • Contemporary Aesthetic

    Sliding windows have a sleek and modern appearance that complements various architectural styles, adding visual appeal to both the interior and exterior of the home.

  • Energy Efficiency

    When properly sealed, sliding windows offer excellent insulation against drafts and outdoor noise, helping to improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs.

  • Low Maintenance

    Sliding windows require minimal maintenance, as they have fewer moving parts compared to other window types like casement or double-hung windows.

  • Security Features

    Many sliding windows come with locking mechanisms and other security features to enhance home security and provide peace of mind.

Typically, bay windows are installed as a three-panel frame with a picture window assorted in the middle. The two side panels are not stationary and allow you to open them if the airflow is your priority. At Standard Windows and Doors, we know what configurations and styles will best match the architectural design of your home. This is important since bay windows can come in a vast variety of designs. Contact us today to get started finding the best window for your needs!

Picture windows are stationary windows, which means they do not open or provide airflow. Think of a picture frame, hence where this unique style got its name. While they’re not the best option if you’re looking to contribute to the flow of fresh air in your home, they’re something to keep in mind if you’re looking to improve the amount of natural light in certain rooms. There is a variety of window styles that are best suited for your home. Give us a call today for more information.

Casement windows are a fantastic way to improve the curb appeal of your home. Like picture windows, they provide an unobstructed view of the outdoors and a tremendous amount of natural light to whatever room they’re in. However, they possess the incredibly useful ability to crank open to allow airflow into your home. For a crank window to accurately be called a casement window, the window must be hinged at the sides and open outward, almost like a door with a cranking mechanism. This allows airflow into your home and is ultimately easier to clean and maintain, mostly due to the fact that these windows don’t have sashes that you’d need to worry about. Awning windows are very similar in style but they are hinged at the top. Give us a call to learn more about these two window styles and their differences.

What classifies a window as double-hung is its unique ability to open both the bottom and top sash. The sashes, or the panes on your window that actively move when you open your windows, can also be tilted for ease of cleaning. You can move both sashes up and down as you wish, giving you various options to optimize air-flow efficiency. If you think double-hung windows are right for you, give us a call to get started on the window replacement you will love!
