Gliding windows, also known as sliding windows, operate by sliding horizontally along tracks. These windows typically consist of two or more sashes, with one or more of them capable of sliding past the other. The sliding motion is facilitated by rollers or gliding mechanisms installed at the bottom of the sashes. Gliding windows are opened or closed by gently pushing or pulling the sashes horizontally.

Since gliding windows open horizontally, they don’t protrude into the living space or outdoor areas, making them a space-saving option for rooms with limited space.
