American (English) style vertical windows from the manufacturer, price, delivery, installation and assembly

In our country, wooden or plastic windows with pivoting sashes are traditionally used for glazing. But Russian consumers are increasingly interested in window systems with overhead doors, which are familiar to residents of the UK and the USA. English windows are vertically sliding, and they are not inferior in functionality to other models. The products are neat and look presentable.

Why slidors is suitable for Russia

Slidors is a sliding profile made of economy class plastic.
To make it clearer, it is something average in quality and characteristics between the KBE plastic profile and the provenal aluminum profile. That is, it is lighter than the first and warmer than the second. True, it also has a minus. It is not warm enough for an apartment or office, because it belongs to cold-warm glazing. Therefore, they are used to glaze non-residential premises, including balconies and loggias. However, when Slidors arrived to us from South Korea, Russians literally immediately fell in love with it. And that's why.

Advantages of the slidors profile:

  1. Like any profile, it will protect your balcony from noise, dirt and dust. However, it will do it better than aluminum. The reason for this is brush seals with an additional plastic gasket, which are installed between the section and the profile on both sides.
  2. Another feature of the Sliders profile is that it is suitable for absolutely any window on your balcony - be it 2 meters high or oval-shaped. Of all the profiles, only this one is capable of such “tricks”. Slidors are used for glazing gazebos, verandas, etc. The Slidors plastic profile looks prettier than the aluminum profile. Slidors has doors even of such impressive sizes
  3. Another advantage of the system is that the doors can slide apart in any order. At the same time, you can make several of them static. And thanks to the unique sliding mechanism, the windows will not freeze even in the most terrible frost. And you can open them without difficulty.
  4. Slidors will protect your home from thieves and mosquitoes. A reliable crescent-shaped lock and a filing piece (a plastic element between the doors) will prevent burglars from getting inside, and a mosquito net will prevent mosquitoes. That's not all: the mosquito net moves freely across the entire window area on an additional rail.
  5. The profile, if desired, is laminated with colored film. Therefore, if you prefer wood in appearance, you can take wood-colored sliders - it will turn out just as beautiful, but cheaper.
  6. Plastic profiles always protect better from the cold compared to aluminum ones.

Flaws

The idea of ​​panoramic glazing raises the following concerns among consumers:

  • long production times;
  • very complex installation;
  • high price of the product and installation work;
  • admission to the cold room;
  • increased heating or electricity bills;
  • danger to occupants in case of damage.

Some of these objections are refuted in practice. Thus, such systems use tempered glass of considerable thickness, which is very difficult to break. As for costs, they are more related to the purchase rather than the further operation of the products.

From a comfort point of view, the main problem with floor-to-ceiling windows is the highly accelerating flow of cold air. It rushes down from the window and flows along the floor into the room. Moreover, the movement of cold masses is quite intense: it is felt by the palm, perceived by the legs, and visually traced with the help of a flame. This drawback can be eliminated by creating a heated floor or installing a convector.

Other types of portals

In addition to lift-and-slide portals, the following systems exist:

parallel-sliding (PS) – the sash can be rolled back and set to micro-ventilation mode;

  • tilt-and-slide (PSK) – the main advantage of this option is the folding mechanism, which complements the other 2 standard opening modes: slot ventilation and opening the entire portal;
  • Lift-and-slide (HS) – to perform micro-ventilation, the sash should be slightly opened and fixed in this state (if in windows with a tilting mode a gap is formed at the top, here - on the sides of the sash);
  • “accordion” (FS) – the absence of blind sashes and imposts allows the opening to be opened as much as possible. When opened, the doors of the FS portal slide along guides and fold like an accordion. They also allow for slot ventilation.

All systems are quiet and comfortable to use, soft and easy to operate.

Profile material

The manufacturing material can be used:

  • aluminum;
  • tree;
  • PVC.

Aluminum sliding windows HS-portal are lightweight and durable, but metal structures are colder than their plastic counterparts. Plastic is not inferior in quality to aluminum, and in terms of thermal conductivity it completely leaves it behind. PVC is an excellent choice for large openings. True, a metal-plastic lift-and-slide system can be a maximum of 10 m in length. Wooden sliding windows HS-portal are the most environmentally friendly, satisfy discerning tastes, and give the client the greatest freedom in choosing shape, texture, and size.

Prices per m2

Among all sliding systems, HS-Portal sliding doors are the most advanced and expensive. The high price is explained by the complexity of their manufacture. The main factors determining the cost are the lifting and sliding fittings and the material of manufacture.

The most budget option is plastic. The most expensive are wooden tilt-and-slide windows. But the consumer always has an alternative - more affordable aluminum or metal-plastic. In addition, the statement about the high cost of wood is true mainly for elite species such as beech and ash. And, for example, an XC portal made of pine is comparable in price to aluminum structures.

The price of the HS portal starts:

  • PVC – from RUB 27,500/m2;
  • wood – from RUB 32,600/m2;
  • aluminum – from RUB 37,300/m2.

As for fittings, tilt-and-slide systems are a more budget-friendly option than lift-and-slide windows. The difference in price is about 35-80% (the cost is determined taking into account the material of manufacture). PSK is also cheaper than accordions.

The cost of the order is calculated individually.

Where is the best place to order designs?

Lift-and-slide floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors are also imported from abroad. Domestic factories do not produce such products. As a result, it takes a very long time to wait for a finished system.

Not many companies offer their portal glazing services. Since floor-mounted systems have recently appeared on our market, it is quite difficult to find a team with extensive experience.

If you want to order such systems, you must first look for a reliable glazing company. Installing portals requires knowledge of many nuances and practical skills, so this work should only be entrusted to professionals.

Slidor profile device

The main feature of the slidors profile is that it is reinforced with metal. Reinforcement occurs as follows: a metal frame is inserted into the main – plastic – profile, which gives strength to the entire structure. So you don’t have to worry that it will bend under strong winds or other impacts.

Components of the Sliders system

This profile opens according to the principle of a sliding wardrobe - the sections move along tracks on rollers. True, there are also static sashes, which, as mentioned earlier, can be alternated with moving ones in absolutely any order.

As for glazing, you can install either a single pane of glass (3 to 6 mm thick) or a single glazed unit with a width of 14 mm. What is best for you is up to you to decide. But if you want a warmer atmosphere on the balcony, then choose double-glazed windows. Its heat transfer resistance is 3-3.5 times higher than that of glass alone.

Installation features of the slidors system

Installation of slidors is quite easy - with a screwdriver and a screwdriver. But in practice, few people undertake to install it themselves - they call specialists. On the one hand, this is quite logical, because the master is a master because he knows all the features of the installation. On the other hand, he sometimes needs an eye and an eye. To prevent your eyes from overlooking anything, we will give some tips.

Firstly, you can glaze a balcony with the Sliders profile at temperatures as low as minus 15 degrees! In winter, before installation, the profile is kept warm up to plus 20°C - so that it does not crack in the cold while it is being installed.

Secondly, from 2 to 4 rollers are installed per section. Moreover, the load on each person should not exceed 40 kg. So take an interest in how much one section weighs and how many rollers it will have to ride on.

Slidors profile covered with colored wood-look film Slidors is not very heavy and is suitable for any balconies Slidors windows refresh a balcony

Thirdly, after completing installation, check that all the necessary parts are in place. Namely: covers on the doors where they meet; filingpis on the frame at the bottom and top at the junction of the sashes and at the corners; brush (on the frame) and rubber (on the glass) seals. As well as a crescent lock and fastening for it.

How are Slider windows different from others?

The Slider profile system is one of the best types of sliding windows. Its profile consists of a main fixed part and several wings, each of which moves along a separate bridge.

The advantages of this design include the following features:

  • — Space saving
  • — Excellent thermal insulation and noise absorption
  • — Possibility of installation with a large window opening area
  • — Easy to use
  • — Long service life
  • — Original appearance

If you expect such benefits from glazing, the Slider profile system is exactly what you need. But do not forget that every medal has two sides, and along with its advantages, such a product also has its disadvantages:

  1. — There is no possibility to install a multi-chamber profile, it will be difficult to open the sash
  2. — There are several cold bridges in the frame, for example, at the junction of two sashes

Windows are difficult to clean, especially the glass itself.

Design features of vertical sliding windows Makgai

A distinctive feature of Makgai vertical sliding aluminum windows is their height and width , as well as the ability to install an electric drive with an additional option - a remote control to make it easier to raise or lower the sash.

Minimum sash width 720mm, maximum 2400mm

Minimum window height 800mm, maximum 2500mm

Filling a vertical sliding window

Glass is regular or tempered, from 4 to 8 mm.

The use of modern materials and new technologies allowed us to solve the problem of sliding window sash, maintaining its classic appearance, which makes it possible to increase light


opening and, accordingly, illumination. The lifting design with electric drive allows you to glaze large openings and easily manage a large number of windows.

The American (English) vertical sliding window has returned in a new design. Lifting window sashes, while retaining their beauty, have acquired a new opportunity to decorate the facades of modern buildings, successfully fitting into almost any architectural design. This design is a compatriot of Sherlock Holmes. Such windows are found in all houses in England and America.

How do Slider plastic windows differ from systems made from other materials?

Plastic has conquered the window market for a long time and there are many explanations for this:

  1. — Plastic windows retain heat in the room better than others and prevent cold from entering the room
  2. — They have good waterproofing and are not afraid of rain or snow
  3. Due to the light weight of the profile, the dimensions of the window can be simply huge, and this will not damage their stability in any way

  4. — Steel reinforcement inside the frame prevents it from sagging and losing shape

  5. — It has been proven that plastic windows perfectly muffle unpleasant street noise
  6. — The design, color and shape of the product can be any
  7. — Dirt and dust do not linger on the surface of the plastic
  8. — There is no need to periodically carry out preventive maintenance, unlike wooden structures

Plastic is actively used for the manufacture of sliding windows. The first reason for this is its good thermal insulation even with small dimensions. In order for the sash to move freely along the profile, it must be relatively small in width. The plastic profile can be made as narrow as possible without losing most of its useful properties.

The optimal profile width for sliding windows is 58 mm. This is exactly the thickness of the plastic frame with three air chambers. The heat transfer resistance coefficient of such a product is 0.64, which is simply excellent for balconies and loggias, as well as for living rooms.


The air chamber is a hollow space inside the frame, which is divided by vertical partitions. The air chambers can only be seen in a cross-section. Outwardly, they resemble honeycombs. The plastic partitions themselves and the air that is between them are an excellent heat insulator. It is logical that the more cameras, the warmer it will be in a room with such a profile.

*Heat transfer resistance coefficient is one of the main characteristics of plastic window blocks. This number is determined by a simple calculation - the ratio of the temperature on different sides of the profile to the heat flux density inside it.

Prices for English windows

The cost of plastic glazing is determined individually and depends on the number of chambers, the window model and the area of ​​the structure. English windows are warm and classic. The former are used in the glazing of premises with the first circuit and have high tightness. They maintain a comfortable temperature in the room in any weather. Classic designs are the second glazing contour. They are in demand in design projects and are used when it is necessary to recreate the authentic image of an English home.

How to choose plastic Slider windows that are right for you?

Windows often have to be replaced simply because they are not suitable for a given thermal range or simply do not meet all the requirements for this room. Moreover, the quality of the windows may be at the highest level, they were simply chosen incorrectly. In order to choose Sliders plastic windows, you need to start from the following.

The room where the windows will be located


The design requirements for living rooms differ in many ways from the requirements for products for office spaces.
Therefore, when choosing a window unit, you should first of all start from this indicator. The system for balconies and loggias may be less insulated if you do not want to use these rooms in winter. This will significantly reduce costs.

Constructions for residential premises, on the contrary, should be insulated as much as possible. In this case, it is necessary to take into account not only the characteristics of the frame, but also the glass unit and even the fittings.

The glass unit, like the profile, is divided into several air chambers. A large number of chambers significantly increases the thickness and weight of the entire structure. To make it easier, it is worth choosing energy-saving windows.

Advantages of English opening windows

Such products are becoming increasingly popular among Russian consumers because they:

  • save room space - you can use the window sill board as a shelf, for example, for flowers or books;
  • look aesthetically pleasing and successfully complement the exterior and interior of the building;
  • maintain a comfortable indoor microclimate thanks to a profile system with insulation and air chambers;
  • prevent unauthorized entry into the room through the window, because it is impossible to open the window sash from the outside;
  • Compatible with protective grilles, mosquito nets, roller shutters and blinds.

Glazing options

Vertical lifting windows are available in two versions. The Single Hung system, in which only one sash is movable, coincides with traditional English glazing. When opened, it slides slightly onto the main one. An imitation of English-style windows includes Double Hung modification glazing, in which both sashes are movable.

Depending on the design features, vertical lift glazing can be:

  • Single leaf
    . This type is more common in Europe, which is explained by the architectural features of the buildings. For single-hung windows, the sash rises toward the outer wall.
  • Bivalve
    . In this case, the glazing design follows American windows and consists of two sashes, as in the classic Single Hung system. One of them is stationary and rigidly fixed, and the second is mobile and moves along the first.

Three-leaf structures provide for the possibility of opening the doors with a vertical movement towards each other. A fixed sash is installed in the middle of the window, and movable sash are installed at the top and bottom. To prevent a sharp fall of frame elements, the sliding mechanism is equipped with reliable braking devices.

When choosing a specific glazing option, the nuances of the building’s architecture, the maximum permissible weight of structures and other factors are taken into account.

Design features

The design of the American sash window resembles and is essentially an exact copy of plastic products.

The window design includes:

  • the upper sash is blind or tilting;
  • lower sash - installed on guide profiles. As a result, the sash moves freely along the window along its entire height.

American style windows cost

The main advantage of glazing with American windows is the simplicity of the design and ease of maintenance.
The window does not have a large number of moving parts and mechanisms, or tilt-and-turn fittings. This window will serve for many years. American windows are a little more expensive, but their service life will be much longer.

Vertical sliding windows

ADVANTAGES OF VERTICAL SLIDING WINDOWS

Noise insulation up to 23 dBVentilation without obstructionsHigh thermal insulationSashes without reinforcement

There is a huge selection of different windows on the market today.
There are people who are not able to purchase standard windows because the opening is too narrow for them. In such cases, we are in a hurry to offer windows with a vertical sliding mechanism. The design is characterized by the presence of two doors located one above the other. The sashes can be tilted, which distinguishes these windows from plastic ones. After tilting, the sashes are fixed in the specified position. Fixation occurs thanks to the “vertical slider” compensator.

Each leaf has its own mechanism. They are independent of each other’s work, which allows them to be recorded at different levels.

These windows were brought from America, which produces windows not only for its climatic conditions. As for the characteristics, vertical sliding windows have:

1. Noise insulation up to 23 dB; 2. High thermal insulation and high-quality ventilation; 3. Light weight, which is due to the lack of reinforcement;


The profile width is 82 mm. This will allow you to install double-glazed windows up to 33 mm thick. The windows have a seal, which is represented by 4-circuit felt.

WHAT ARE GLASS UNITS WITH A “WARM EDGE”?

Inside the windows themselves there is an extrusion air-chamber system. It serves to prevent condensation from accumulating. In addition, the accumulation of moisture is prevented by the absorbent outer layer and the membrane, which is vapor-waterproofing.

Vertically sliding windows Makgai with vertical lifting sash and electric drive

Windows are the most important source of natural light in a room, the lighting in accordance with which all interior design is created.
McGuy's vertically sliding aluminum windows will help give the space the same English tranquility, will be a highlight and a truly useful thing.

Additionally, you can make a layout on the windows from sprats; the window will look like in the photo and will be suitable for verandas, terraces and balconies. Plus, windows do not take up space in the room and do not restrict movement.

The classic English window is a fixed and non-opening part of the window at the top and a movable part at the bottom. Thanks to special latches, the window sash can be fixed at different heights. This is a good opportunity to regulate the air flow from the street.

A modern design and design solution for today is vertically sliding windows with electric drive . And an additional option - a remote control , and the ability to open up to 15 windows. Sitting in a chair and without getting up, you can open or close any window.


The second option for such a window is vertically sliding windows with a lowered sash . Makgai aluminum vertical sliding windows can be installed from floor to ceiling. And the top sash goes down to the bottom half of the window, and creates a fence (if the window has a height of 2.5 meters, the top sash drops by 1.2 meters). This opportunity is available only for vertically sliding Makgai windows with an electric drive; hinged (European) type window designs do not have this opportunity.

Installing vertically sliding windows with electric drive will be convenient for terraces, verandas, gazebos, indoor spaces, outdoor cafes, and also where installation of large windows with vertically sliding sashes is required.
