Double Glazed Sliding Windows Melbourne

A sliding window has one pane that slides across past the other on a track, so nothing swings out into the path.

We supply them double glazed in aluminium, in the ML86 and ML102 series, and our own team installs them.

What Is A Sliding Window?

A sliding window has one pane, called a sash, that slides sideways past a fixed pane on a track. Nothing swings out, so it suits windows onto paths, decks and verandahs. Ours are double glazed aluminium in the ML86 residential and ML102 commercial series, with a Siegenia Aubi handle from Germany as standard. We measure every sliding window ourselves before our team fits it, anywhere in Melbourne's south and east.

Sliding Windows Over Fixed Panes

A sliding window can sit over or beside fixed panes, which are glass that doesn't open. In the photo, the top row is the sliding window and the two lower panes are fixed.

Fixed panes let you put more glass in a wall without adding more parts that open.

Your Choice Of Glass
You choose the glass. Low-E glass has a thin coating that reflects heat, and argon filled glass has a heavy gas sealed in the gap between the panes. Laminated glass holds together if it breaks, acoustic glass is laminated with a layer that damps sound, and tinted glass cuts glare. Our guide to glass options for double glazing explains each one.
Stainless Steel Fly Screens
Our fly screens are stainless steel mesh, stronger than standard fly screen mesh.

How The Price Is Worked Out

Sliding windows are priced on their size in square metres. Send us how many you have, your suburb and a few photos for a ballpark. Our double glazing cost guide explains how the price is worked out.
