Call for Durable Replacement Horizontal Single Sliding Windows in AZ

Today's most popular window styles are sliding windows (a.k.a. a glider). Single Slider windows, as the name implies, are opened by unlatching and sliding one of the panes horizontally in a track. Sliding windows are installed both for their exceptional functional and aesthetic benefits. 

Sliders provide superior visibility, with the most minimal obstruction across the center of the glass. They let in a flood of light, which few other window styles can match. Sliding windows also provide easy, smooth functioning with minimal framing and exterior hardware.

The Advantages of Slider Windows

With today’s huge array of window design options, a large percentage of homeowners include one or more sliding glass windows in their home improvement plans for replacement windows. A fuller list of the many benefits of sliding glass windows on a modern home includes:

  • Natural Ventilation: Sliders are usually larger than more traditional window designs and typically open wider than double-hung windows, allowing superior ventilation.
  • Serves as a Picture Window: Sliding windows are typically wider than that their height, which gives them dimensions like a picture window.
  • Larger Sizes: Sliding windows can be built in larger sizes than double-hung windows because the sliding direction of the window is side to side instead of up and down.
  • Minimal Framing: There is not as much framing to clean and maintain or interfere with your view of the outdoors.
  • Low Maintenance: Sliders are constructed with fewer parts than many other window styles have, making them lower maintenance and more cost-effective over time.
  • Long-Term Durability: A sliding window does not rely on pulleys or springs that wear out over time. The glass glazing applied to sliders also adds to their great durability.
  • Ideal Alternative: Where casement windows, for example, would obstruct movement on porches, decks, or walkways, a sliding window doesn’t cause foot traffic impediments.
  • Easy to Use: Modern sliding windows are effortless to open because they slide sideways, vs. having to be pushed upward and pulled downward.
  • Ideal Access: Sliding glass windows glide easily and they don’t take up space while they’re open, so they don’t block entryways or furniture.
  • Visually Appealing: Frames a wide picturesque view of the landscape and complements contemporary home design styles.
  • Energy-Efficient: Modern high-performance sliders feature Low-E glass for maximum energy efficiency. The special coatings reflect heat and damaging sun rays, keeping the home cooler in hot weather and warmer through cold winter months.
  • Safety and Security: Today’s state-of-the-art models feature an upgraded sliding mechanism as well as a much more snug fit in the frame opening than older versions. This means maximum slider safety benefits as well as a tight seal for better weather protection.

How Do Sliding Windows Work?

Sliding windows are horizontal, with sashes that slide back and forth horizontally along the window frame. Single Slider windows, as the name implies, are opened by unlatching and sliding one of the panes horizontally in a track. For example, a casement or awning window is designed to open and close by turning a crank handle, and double-hung windows move by pushing the sashes up and down. But, sliders rest in a track and open by sliding them to the side instead of lifting them up vertically.
