What Is an Aluminium Sliding Window

Basic Structure and Function

An aluminium sliding window is a horizontal window that opens and closes by sliding one panel over the other. Compared to the casement windows, which swing in or out, a sliding window incorporates a track system where the sash glides horizontally within the frame. The frame itself is normally made up of aluminium due to its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion characteristics. This has rendered it an ideal choice for modern architectural applications where the demand is for durability, even surface finish, and minimum maintenance.

How It Stacks Up Against Other Windows

The main difference between aluminium sliding windows and others, such as awning, double-hung, or casement windows, is the way they are made and utilize space. Sliding windows never project out into inner or outer space when opened, and hence suit space-constricted spaces like balconies, corridors, or small city houses. Secondly, aluminium frames are slimmer than regular wooden or uPVC frames, offering more glass surface area and thus a clearer view and sunlight.

Fundamental Characteristics of PAVIDA Aluminium Sliding Windows

Frame Material and Strength

PAVIDA aluminium sliding windows are constructed with high-quality 6063-T5 grade aluminium alloy, which is strong in structure and resistant to oxidation. The frame undergoes surface treatments such as anodizing or powder coating, and hence, the frame becomes long-lasting in nature, even if the building is located in coastal or damp areas. Our windows are thus most suited for residential or commercial structures that require strong material with minimal maintenance.

Smooth Sliding Mechanism

All our sliding windows are provided with a stainless-steel double-rail track system having nylon or precision-bearing wheels built into it, so the sliding is smooth and jam-free without making any noise. The system is developed in a way that even after years of operation, it is smooth, minimizing wear and tear. It is thus ideally appropriate for people of very advanced age or children, where operating convenience is of utmost value.

Locking System and Safety

Our boasts multi-point locking and anti-lift blocks that give added security. Forcing the entry is not an option with this feature, and the sash is always locked, even on pressure. Child safety locks can be added optionally to prevent unauthorized access from within as well.

Benefits of Choosing PAVIDA Sliding Windows

Space-Saving Design

One of the greatest advantages of aluminium sliding windows is their compact nature. Since the sashes slide over one another rather than opening through swinging, they occupy no extra clearance either inside or outside. This is ideal in small rooms or in narrow rooms where ordinary windows will be obnoxious.

Increased Natural Light and Ventilation

Our windows have the low frame profiles, which allow for a larger glass area and, consequently, make a major contribution to daylight penetration. With big pieces of glass and fewer mullions, Our aluminium sliding windows allow for maximum external visibility and the entry of much natural light. Further, when opened up, the large opening gives plenty of ventilation that leads to better indoor air quality as well as a decrease in dependence on artificial cooling devices.

Low Maintenance Requirements

Contrary to painted or sealed wood frames from time to time, aluminium is fireproof, and it cannot be damaged by termites. We use powder-coated aluminium profiles that retain years of color and gloss without peeling or fading. Cleaning is sometimes as simple as wiping with a damp cloth every now and then—perfect for residents who prefer low-maintenance fixtures.

Customization Options Available

Frame Colors and Finishes

We are also offered in a wide variety of color tints in matte black, champagne gold, silver grey, and white. Customers may also opt for wood grain finishes with timber appearance, but still get to benefit from the use of aluminium. Finishing is done by high-end powder-coating or anodized processes that give fade-proof appearances.

Glass Types and Thickness Options

To cater to different demands for performance, Our aluminium sliding windows are manufactured to suit single-glazed panels of 5mm to 12mm thickness and double-glazed units of a thickness of 24mm or less. Clear float glass, tempered safety glass, sun control tinted glass, or security laminated glass can be chosen by the customers. Such glazing versatility is aimed at allowing personalization based on thermal insulation, sound insulation, or privacy.

01 The choice of window type

Window types are now common mainly casement windows, sliding windows, lower-hung windows (internal opening and inverted windows), upper-hung windows, folding windows, etc., if only from the point of view of the area of the wind sailing through the ventilation effect of a good window type arrangement: folding windows > casement windows > sliding windows > lower-hung windows (internal opening and inverted windows) > upper-hung windows.

02 Formation of convection

Many people have the misconception that the more windows opened the better the ventilation, in fact, it is not. It is recommended that the general opening fan area is not less than 8% of the floor area of the room can be. In addition to the window type and open the fan, windows and doors want good ventilation, but also the formation of convection, ventilation effect is good!

If the air from the windows and doors does not enter the room well, and is blocked by the interior partitions, the airflow cannot be sustained. So when renovating, if you can’t make changes to the windows, consider reorienting the door to create a convection with the windows.

03 The choice of screens

Screens can also affect the ventilation effect, many brands on the market use screens that are diamond mesh, the diameter of the window screen is thick and dense, which will also have an impact on the ventilation.

If there are higher requirements for ventilation, it is recommended to choose high-transparent diamond screen, anti-mosquito and better ventilation.

04 Large floor-to-ceiling sliding windows

Want to better ventilation, the realization of indoor convection ventilation is very important, so you can choose a large area of floor-to-ceiling sliding windows, glass sliding doors, etc., want to open, want to close closed.

When it comes to the home balcony door, kitchen door, bedroom door and other places, it is recommended to expand the doorway (provided that there is no load-bearing wall in the doorway). By enlarging the doorway, together with the design of large floor-to-ceiling sliding windows, this can improve the ventilation and lighting effect.

01.Real Material
For high-rise buildings, wind pressure resistance is an important performance indicator of doors and windows.

Puvet window and door profiles using the selection of high-quality profiles and profile cross-section structure to enhance the design, improve the strength of the profile into the window, so that the doors and windows can withstand greater wind pressure.

02.High-quality heat insulation
The glass standard of the windows and doors of Pavida are selected with 3C certification of the hollow tempered glass to ensure safety; in addition, the insulating glass is selected from the aluminum spacer strip continuous one-piece bending of the tempered insulating glass to reduce the probability of air leakage, water seepage, etc., which can guarantee excellent heat insulation, sound insulation effect, and further take into account the safety.
