Sliding
Windows (also referred to as 'sliders' or 'gliders') are
typically made with one sash that slides horizontally and one
sash that remains fixed. Typically the sashes can be
easily removed for cleaning and maintenance. Like picture
windows, sliding windows can also be good for showcasing
spectacular views since there is little obstruction in their
design. Sliding Windows can often be a good option to
replace fixed picture windows since they allow for more
ventilation.
