Sliding Windows
What is a sliding window?
Sliding windows are also known as gliding windows, sliders, or pocket sliders. They operate horizontally with one sash sliding past the other to provide ventilation. The sashes glide on brass rollers for smooth, easy operation. Many modern and ranch style homes are designed using the slider window style.
All Window Source sliding windows come standard with:
- Multi-chambered 3 1/4 inch vinyl frames
- Fusion-welded sashes and mainframes
- Tandem brass sash rollers for easy operation
- Sashes lift out for safe and easy cleaning
- Warm edge spacer system
- Double insulated glass
- Meets Energy Star requirements when purchased with LowE/Argon
- Transferable Lifetime Warranty
Safe and Easy Cleaning
The sashes lift out for easy cleaning without a ladder, but when in the locked position, the sashes are secure and cannot be removed.
Two-Lite Sliders
A two-lite slider, also referred to as a two section slider, has two equally sized sashes. Each sash operates to allow for ventilation from either side of the unit.
Three-Lite Sliders
A three-lite slider, also referred to as a three section slider, has a fixed center sash with an operative sash on both sides. The fixed center sash may be twice the width of the two operative sashes in a 1/4 – 1/2 – 1/4 configuration. Alternatively, all three sashes can have the same width in a 1/3 – 1/3 – 1/3 configuration.
