Gliding Windows
How To Recognize Them
Andersen® gliding windows open by sliding one sash horizontally past another.
Why To Choose Them
Some people find gliding windows easier to open than "crank-outs" such as casements and awnings. Try the operation and see for yourself.
When To Use Them
The contemporary look of gliding windows makes them most appropriate for more modern home styles.
Where To Place Them
Gliding windows are ideal for spaces that are next to walkways and other traffic areas, since they do not project outward. Generally, placement higher on walls is the preferred, especially in homes with children.

Gliding windows should feel like they’re floating, not sliding.
Compare NFRC ratings.
When it comes to U-Factor, the lower the better - and the less you’ll spend heating and cooling. It’s an easy, accurate way to compare the energy efficiency of windows and patio doors.
