Window Installation

What are Sliding Windows?

As the name implies, sliding windows, also known as gliding windows or slider windows, are composed of sashes that slide either to the left or the right in a single frame. They can provide excellent ventilation and can be easily cleaned from the inside as both sides of the window can be opened at the same time. Furthermore, the typically thin and clean lines are aesthetically pleasing and allow for beautiful unobstructed views of your garden and the scenery outside your home.

Sliding windows are usually made of aluminum or vinyl, and can be either fixed or operable. There are two main types of sliding windows: single-hung and double-hung. Single-hung windows have a lower sash that slides up and down, while the upper sash is fixed in place. Double-hung windows have both upper and lower sashes that can be opened and closed.

Sliding windows are a great option for homes because they are easy to use and maintain. They are ideal for rooms getting a lot of sun, because they can be opened to let in cool air while still providing privacy.

Sliding Windows Second To None With Quick Installation

As with any window type, knowing when to use sliding windows makes a world of difference for the overall aspect of your home. Sliding windows are best used when the width of a window is greater than its height. Two of the great benefits of this window type are the unfettered views provided and its ability to deliver optimal ventilation. Sliding windows are an excellent choice for homeowners lucky enough to have access to wonderful views they want to take in every moment of the day.

Having more moving parts than most windows, sliding windows need to be carefully chosen and installed. Fortunately, Chicago Window Guys have plenty of experience with sliding windows. Our expert team delivers only high-quality sliding windows and ensures proper installation from A to Z.

Our customers can choose from a wide variety of materials and benefit from flawless professional installation.

Furthermore, if you need expert advice regarding the types of windows best suited for your property, we are here to give a helping hand. We’ll come to your home and help you make the perfect choice for your space. Sometimes, this may not be a sliding window. It may be a picture window, an awning window, or a combination of windows. Count on us to make the most of your views, natural light, and air circulation with the best windows for your home.

Sliding Window Replacement

When You Should Replace Your Sliding Windows

If you notice that your sliding windows are difficult to open or close, or if they are starting to show signs of wear and tear, it’s probably time to replace them. Old, damaged windows can be a major source of heat loss, so it’s important to get them fixed or replaced as soon as possible.

Not sure if you should buy a sliding replacement window yet?

Check for signs of wear such as:

  • Significant condensation within the window glass or on the glass surfaces
  • Drafts coming from the window
  • Mold or blistered paint around the window
  • Warped frame that makes it difficult to open or close the window
  • The hardware isn't working correctly
  • The window clatters or clanks while opening

If you relate to at least one of these signs, your window isn’t giving its maximum energy efficiency performance. In fact, it is most likely that you are losing money due to its deterioration. Get the most energy-efficient and highest quality windows. Chicago Window Guys provides you the best team of professionals for any window replacement, installation, or maintenance project.

If your energy bills have been rising, new windows could help reduce them. Old, inefficient windows can let a lot of heat escape, so upgrading to energy-efficient windows can save you money on heating and cooling costs.

Don’t postpone having your sliding windows replaced. Poorly installed or deteriorated windows can impact your energy efficiency performance and expose your family to break-ins. Get the most energy-efficient and durable windows! Window replacement, installation, or maintenance? Chicago Window Guys has the team for the job!

Giuseppe S.
White front door with an oval glass window and two narrow glass panels on each side, set in a light brick exterior. Two outdoor wall lights are mounted on either side of the door.
A large arched window is positioned above a white front door with decorative glass panels on a brick house exterior. Two wall-mounted lanterns flank the door.
We had an excellent experience with the Chicago window guys. We had a leaky window that is positioned over the front door. I had countless companies come out and half looked at it and turned us away due to the size and weight of the window, even the big name companies. Russ and crew came in and found that the leak was due to pitch and limestone. They replaced the limestone and also replaced my front door. The door has been in and window repaired for about a year now and has been fantastic. Russ and team were phenomenal to deal with. Highly recommend.

I had 7 windows and a sliding door installed. It has changed the look and feel of my house. No drafts–even in the extreme cold we just experienced. My heating bill seems less. Russ, the owner came and helped with ideas for different style of windows and I love the new look. The installers worked the entire day-not even pausing for lunch or breaks. They were very professional, answered any questions I had and cleaned up nicely. I am a satisfied customer. Recommended them to my parents who also just had all their windows replaced.

My experience with the Chicago window guys was nothing short of amazing every step of the way from my initial quote to scheduling of installation and through to project completion! Their accessibility and understanding were impeccable! I’m extremely pleased with the results of my custom made windows and I recommend them 10/10

I had a full house window replacement and sliding door replacement. They were very straight forward about the whole process. The cost was great and the installers were prompt and did awesome work. We had a few rotted pieces of wood on the house and they replaced that right away. Awesome work and company.

Working with Chicago Window Guys was nothing short of amazing. We had all of our windows, front door and rear sliding door replaced by them and we could not be more satisfied. From start to finish the process was easy, low pressure and amazingly thorough. The quality of the windows and doors is fantastic, and we are very pleased. The one or two very minor issues were resolved quickly to our satisfaction. If you need new windows or doors, I highly recommend reaching out to the team at Chicago Window Guys. You won’t be disappointed.

We contacted The Chicago Window Guys after seeing the spectacular work they did for my Neighbours home. I was connected with Mark who present us with a lot of options but made it very easy to make a decision with out being overwhelmed. Mark was always available to answer questions, the gentleman that measured the windows was on time, speedy and had a great customer service persona. I have more windows to replace and will be calling Chicago Window guys when that time comes.

After receiving quotes from a few of the big name window companies, my neighbor recommended I reach out to Chicago Window Guys. I love the custom windows at their home, so was happy to receive the advise. They installed a new large picture window that looks fantastic. The installation was quick, easy, and friendly. All of the options are standard and they offer an excellent warranty. If I need more windows in the future I will 100% come back and will recommend to all of my friends. This is a no brainer, call Chicago Window Guys!

I HIGHLY recommend Chicago Window Guys! I was immediately contacted by Russ after I inquired about our project and a time to meet was set up. Russ was easy to talk to and understood our project which was a new front door, but also replacing a back swinging door and pair of windows with a sliding door. Chicago Window Guys did the whole project and did both our front door and slider in ONE DAY! I cannot thank them enough and we’re already planning our next project for the Chicago Window Guys!
Samuel S.
A glass sliding door with a metal railing outside opens to a view of leafy green trees and a brick building across the street.
Great experience working with Russ and his team on some custom sliding doors/windows. Price was fair and everyone involved was very easy to work with and communicative throughout the process. The installers were great – showed up on time and got everything installed and cleaned up. They did a great job with cleaning up and installing new trim. These doors are a massive upgrade from what they replaced. The temperature is now much more consistent in our condo and will require less a/c to keep our place cool this summer. Will use Chicago Window Guys again.

I heard about Chicago Window Guys a few years ago on a radio ad. I ended up going to the southside for a summer home show to meet on of their reps, Mark. He was honest and upfront. I hired them to install a bathroom window and a sliding door. The quality of their work and professionalism was so outstanding I hired them again this past summer to replace ALL my kitchen windows and they are spectacular! Hire these people!
