We rigorously evaluate sliding windows to ensure durability, smooth operation, and energy efficiency, guaranteeing reliable performance and long-lasting quality in various conditions.
To install Sliding Windows, follow the steps below:
Use packers to level the window sill for proper alignment.
Position exterior flashing securely before placing the window frame.
Fit window tightly into the packed opening and secure it.
Set a 10mm reveal for Gyprock, ensuring a precise fit.
Pack and secure the opposite side of the window for stability.
Place head flashing above the window to ensure weather protection.
Sliding windows are generally cost-effective compared to other window types, particularly when considering installation and material costs. They offer good value due to their simple design, ease of operation, and lower maintenance requirements.
Yes, sliding windows are suitable for high-rise buildings. Their horizontal operation is ideal for windy conditions, and they are often designed with reinforced frames and secure locking mechanisms to withstand strong winds and pressure.
Single-pane sliding windows have one layer of glass, offering basic insulation. Double-pane sliding windows feature two layers of glass with an insulating gas layer in between, providing enhanced thermal efficiency, sound insulation, and energy savings.
Sliding windows generally require less maintenance than other window types due to their simple design. However, it’s important to keep tracks and rollers clean and lubricated to ensure smooth operation and prevent wear over time.
Sliding windows with double-pane glass and proper seals offer good sound insulation, reducing external noise. While they may not be as effective as some other types, they can significantly improve the acoustic comfort of a space.
