Explore the streamlined design and functionality of our uPVC sliding windows, perfect for modern living spaces and offices. Our sliding windows, available in single-slider and double-slider configurations, blend simplicity with efficiency, allowing smooth and easy operation within their sleek frames.

The specially designed rail and premium quality rollers ensure that the windows glide effortlessly and last longer.
Our uPVC sliding windows are engineered with a multi-chambered profile for superior thermal and acoustic insulation, making your space more comfortable and quiet. A generous overlap between the frame and sash maximises energy efficiency by preventing water and dust infiltration.

FAQ’s
What are uPVC Windows?
uPVC (unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride) windows are made from a robust, resilient, and energy-efficient plastic material. They are known for their durability, sturdiness, low maintenance, and superior energy and noise insulation.
How do sliding windows differ from traditional casement windows?
Sliding windows operate by sliding horizontally along a track, unlike casement windows that swing outwards or inwards on hinges. This sliding mechanism is ideal for when space is at a premium, as it doesn’t require any clearance outside or inside, making them perfect for tight spaces.
What maintenance is required for sliding windows?
Sliding windows typically require minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning of the glass and tracks to remove dirt and debris is recommended to ensure smooth operation. Lubricating the tracks periodically can also help maintain the ease of sliding motion and extend the life of the window’s moving parts.
Can sliding windows be used in all climates?
Yes, sliding windows are versatile and can be used in a variety of climatic conditions. Our windows are designed with materials formulated to withstand severe weather, including extreme temperatures and high wind pressures. The seals have string noise & thermal insulating features that help ensure that they perform well in both hot and cold environments, making them a suitable choice for the beachside, countryside and mountainside.
Are there different design options available for sliding windows?
Yes, our sliding windows come in a variety of design options, including different frame colours, glass types, and configurations like single-slider or double-slider. These options allow you to select the right windows that best fit the personal style, architectural requirements or design needs of the project.
What is NatHERS?
The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) is mandatory in Australia and determines the energy rating for new homes and renovations. Under NatHERS, every home is assessed by its thermal performance out of a score of 10. It’s required that all homes have a minimum 7-star rating, the higher the rating is the more comfortable your living conditions will be.
What Does a 7-star Rating Mean?
A 7 star rating means your home is liveable under the NatHERS scheme. The rating is based on your thermal performance, which assesses how efficiently your home uses and stores energy for heating and cooling. With a 7-star rating, your home will be cheaper to heat and cool throughout the year and better withstand harsh weather conditions.
This can help you save hundreds of dollars on your energy bills and support the government’s long-term policy regarding a net zero emissions future by 2050.
How Important is it to Have a Good Orientation to Achieve 7-Star Standards?
Firstly, “Good Orientation” refers to the position of your home about the Sun’s path. While it is not mandatory to have good orientation, it can be beneficial in achieving a 7-star thermal rating.
The key to achieving a 7-star rating lies in the quality of your windows and doors. We offer various designs of uPVC windows and doors crafted using Aluplast technology.
This technology already meets the minimum 7-star requirements set by NatHERS. If you’re unsure if your windows and doors meet the new standards, contact us now to review their quality.
