Horizontal Slider Windows

These windows are easy to use, gliding open horizontally with very little effort. Their large profile provides a wide view to the outside and ample ventilation to create a cooling cross breeze between rooms. They could certainly make the perfect addition to your home.

Windows come in a variety of styles, among the most popular of which are slider windows. Take a drive through the St. Louis Metro and you’ll see for yourself how many modern homes have slider windows installed.

With so many window styles to choose from, what makes sliders a good option for your home? Consider the benefits of slider windows:

• Great views: Large, square openings allow you to enjoy a wider view of the exterior than double-hung or casement windows. Slider windows also allow more light to enter so you can illuminate your home naturally for lower lighting bills.
• More ventilation: A larger window results in more fresh air entering your home when you throw the window wide open. Create a cross breeze on fair-weather days by opening several slider windows in your home at once.
• Ease of use: A flick of your wrist unlocks the window and a gentle push allows the operable pane to glide open. As long as you pursue professional installation, you can expect your slider windows to remain easy to use for decades to come.
• Low maintenance: The simple design of slider windows means they come with fewer parts. This means they work seamlessly with little to no maintenance required. Plus, it’s easy to remove slider windows from their frames for easy cleaning or to make room for window air conditioners.
• Architectural compatibility: Many types of home styles look best with slider windows installed. Tudor, prairie, art deco, ranch and mid-century modern are just a few styles that work well with this type of window.
