The best place to start is with the most popular options, as they are popular for a reason. One of the most popular kinds of replacement windows is gliding. Read on to learn more about gliding windows to see if they are right for you and your home.<\/p>\n

Gliding windows, or sliding windows, do not open outward. Rather, both sashes\u202fglide horizontally. This is ideal for a few reasons, the main ones being maximum ventilation and ease of use. Gliding windows offer a lot of benefits for homes. Some of these benefits are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Easy Use \u2013<\/strong> Gliding windows are extremely user-friendly and reliable. They open smooth, easy-to-maintain tracks, and lift out so you can easily clean the exterior glass from inside your home. You can also easily add weather stripping for increased energy efficiency and proper weather performance.<\/li>\n
  2. Versatility \u2013<\/strong> Since both sashes can move, you can open a gliding window to the left side, the right side, or a portion of both for maximum ventilation. You can also find gliding windows with a stationary sash for a different approach.<\/li>\n
  3. Save Space \u2013<\/strong> Because the sashes don\u2019t open outward, gliding windows save a ton of space. They\u2019re ideal for rooms in which a projecting window (open or closed) may interfere with walkways, decks, landscaping, or patios.<\/li>\n
  4. Ventilation \u2013<\/strong> Gliding window sashes\u2019 horizontal movement allows for full top or bottom ventilation, getting more fresh air into your room.<\/li>\n
  5. More Natural Light \u2013<\/strong> Gliding windows have contoured, narrow frames that allow more glass for a wider viewing area and less light block. Oftentimes gliding windows have the most glass area of all operable windows.<\/li>\n
  6. Different Styles \u2013<\/strong> There are also many subcategories of gliding windows, allowing you to find the exact style that meets your needs and preferences. For example, you can get gliding fractional vent windows for a smaller opening or gliding triple windows to maximize the ventilation on both sides. You can also customize gliding windows by combining them with picture or specialty windows for an even larger opening.<\/li>\n
  7. Customization \u2013<\/strong> Gliding windows come in lots of different colors for easy customization. You can also choose your preferred hardware and grilles to better match your style.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
