Vertical Sliding Secondary Glazing

Vertical sliding windows operate by moving up or down. In single hung windows, only one sash moves, typically upwards. In double hung windows, both sashes can move independently, allowing for versatile ventilation and the ability to open both sashes simultaneously.

Vertical sliding secondary glazing provides several benefits, including:

Improved insulation

Reduced noise pollution

Enhanced security

Versatile ventilation

Ease of cleaning

Maintains the functionality of original sliding mechanisms

Man sealing new window with silicone wearing overalls and a hat

Sash Window Installation

Vertical sliding secondary glazing is installed by placing a secondary glazing unit within the existing window frame, allowing the secondary layer to slide vertically in tandem with the primary window. This setup maintains the original sliding functionality while adding an extra layer of insulation and noise reduction.

When combined with secondary glazing, vertical sliding windows offer improved thermal performance and acoustic insulation. The secondary glazing enhances the overall efficiency of the window system without interfering with its ability to slide vertically, preserving both function and comfort.
