Sliding windows, also known as sliders, gliding windows, horizontal sliding and sliding sash windows, open horizontally rather than vertically, and they are typically wider than they are tall, creating a horizontal rectangle. They slide, or glide, along a track, making them easy to open and close and simple to clean. If single-hung and double-hung windows improve your view vertically, sliding windows widen your view. They are popular where windows that swing outward won’t work — tight walkways, patios or porches, for instance, and are common in contemporary and modern home styles. With grilles, they also fit well in traditional home styles.
Sliding windows are easy to maneuver and let in plenty of fresh air and sunlight, especially the three Western Washington cities that are among the sunniest in the U.S. — Milwaukee (#73), Madison (#134) and Green Bay (#133). They provide your home with a lovely framed picture of the outside. They let in plenty of natural light with their large glass panels, giving you unobstructed views. They also give your home plenty of ventilation, opening fully to let in the outside air. Some even allow both sashes to open, giving even more air circulation.

"We had a great experience with our rep, Summer Million. She explained the different options available after asking what our needs and preferences were, and took the time to answer all of our questions. Pella doors and windows are beautiful and well-made. I highly recommend them and Summer if you are in the market for doors or windows."
"When it came time to replace my windows and doors, I contacted Pella. I knew they had a great product and competitive prices. What I didn't know was how well I'd be taken care of. Jon Carter met with me after work and spent a couple hours explaining their product and various choices I had. He helped me design new window placements and was so helpful and patient while I made the right choices for my home. Because of Jon's outstanding customer service, I feel confident with my choices and can't wait for my project to begin! Thank you Jon and Pella Windows!"
"...Kristen arrived promptly as scheduled, had detailed knowledge, and comfortably answered lots of questions. Code issues, energy efficiency, the range of materials options and their pros and cons, and design choices were all discussed. Her understanding of the product features and installation process, financing options and warranties were all clear. At the same appointment she walked through and took measurements and provided a quote before she left. She checked back with us on added questions and answered them all promptly and with no pressure. We did explore other options - some higher priced, some lower, all with some confusion and frustration. We are pleased to have selected Pella Impervia (fiberglass) and even more pleased to be working with Kristen to get this project completed."
"So professional on every front. From the estimate through the installation, the communication and professionalism was the best that I’ve seen! Every time I walk in my house and I see these beautiful new windows. I know that I am going to be comfortable in an amazing environment that is nice and quiet. Thank you, Pella!"
"We had Pella windows of NW WA replace two of our bay windows with new Impervia full pane windows as well as our kitchen, office, bedrooms and a new patio door on a small deck off our upstairs bedroom. Our views have vastly improved without all the frames.
The Pella team was so impressive and amazingly quick with the removal of the two bay window structures and replacing not only the old windows with beautiful new windows but the workmanship of replacing siding, trim and the caulking finish as well as the beautiful interior casings and trim with caulking finish was really incredible. They installed eight windows and one patio door in one and a half days. Very professional and very clean work. Thanks Pella!"
"Maks and Ian were stellar installers that took care to ensure the work was top notch, the house was kept clean and safe, and they communicated with us throughout the entire project. I have had many contractors in my home, these two are welcome back anytime I need their master craftsmen skillsets!"
"On Thursday, October 10, a technician from your company arrived to make the repairs on my Pella sliding door. Having nothing better to do, I hung around and watched Jesse work. I was VERY impressed at Jesse’s attention to detail, his knowledge of making the repairs and his craftsmanship in making the repairs. He answered all my questions, was friendly and helpful. As a result of his work, the door is now working as good as new! It was a pleasure meeting and having Jesse in my home and just wanted to let you know what an asset he is to your company."
