Description

Sliding windows use the sliding door frame and panels move on an outside track. They can meet at 90° corners without the need for a corner post. 

Most configurations include a fixed side panel. However, a bypass slider option is available where two or more panels are configured to open from opposing ends.

For best overall performance, pair with The AGP System® with Solux-E® or Solux Ultra® low-e glass.

Key Features
  • Designed for suitability for Extra High wind zones and Specific Design applications
  • APL Architectural Series sliding windows use the sliding door frame but generally have smaller interlocker stiles, mullions and bi-parting meeting stiles
  • The sill frame has both sloped and flush track options
  • The sloped sill option has a smaller top and bottom rail 
  • Interlocker stiles and mullions are flush in the closed position
  • Ideal for non-projecting or servery windows
