Single slider Vs Double slider windows

What Are Single Slider Tilt Windows?

Single-slider and double-slider windows offer a similar appearance, but their operation varies slightly. With single slider windows, only one of the window panes is mobile, compared to double slider where both window panes are mobile.

With this window style, you can slide the operational window panes horizontally, as well as open them inwards like a casement window. This offers excellent ventilation choices as well as easy cleaning and maintenance.

Installation Choices For Single Slider Windows

Full-Frame Vs Retrofitting

Full-Frame Replacement

Full-frame window replacements are one of the more extensive installation methods, it involves removing the entire window, including the window frame. While this installation method can be a larger job than retrofitting, it allows our installers to check the area for mould or rot.

Retrofit Installation

In comparison, a window retrofit involves only replacing the glass by removing the window sash but leaving the frame intact. This method is only recommended to homeowners whose window frames are still in excellent condition and who want to replace the same window style.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs: Single-Slider Windows

What are single slider tilt windows?

A single slider tilt window is a variation of the double slider tilt. Instead of having both sashes sliding horizontally and tilting in, the single slider only has one movable sash. Northshield’s single slider windows slide effortlessly and lock securely when tilted in. This type of window can be either coupled with our fixed windows, or paired with other single slider windows to make for better airflow.

What are the advantages of single slider tilt windows?

Beyond aesthetics, slider windows have many advantages. They are easy and convenient to use, and they have fewer parts than conventional windows, which makes them a cost-effective and durable choice for residential and commercial properties. Another benefit of the single slider tilt window is that, because of the tilt functionality, it is extremely easy to clean. Plus, they require very little effort to open and close as they are lightweight and glide along the frame with ease.

What are the special features of single slider tilt windows?

A single tilt slider window opens horizontally (side to side). One sash is movable and the other one is stationary. The movable sash tilts into the room for easy cleaning. Simple and convenient, single slider windows are a practical solution that offers ventilation and ease of operation. This type of window is ideal for larger openings as they maximize space through their simple sliding movement. Single slider windows available at NorthShield Windows and Doors are made from energy efficient Low-E glass that offers higher energy rating, along with weather stripping and easy-to-operate hardware.

Where to install single slider tilt windows?

Slider windows look good anywhere. Because of their design and ease of operation, slider windows allow for great visibility and air ventilation. In your home, these windows look great in the living room, kitchen, bedroom, or any other room that needs a practical, yet stylish finish.

Which is better, single or double slider tilt window?

Slider windows are the perfect solution for adding airflow to tricky and tight spaces. The main difference between the two types is in the movable sashes - while the single slider window has one movable sash, double slider has two, which allows for more control over airflow. As far as appearance goes, there are no significant differences, and the price is largely determined by the size of the window and the type of frame you choose.
