Sliding Windows
Space-saving, wide and simple
Sliding windows move horizontally along a track, which makes them the natural answer where a projecting sash would be a nuisance: above a path, alongside a walkway, over a deck or against a balustrade. They also handle wide openings comfortably, letting you frame a long view without heavy framing members. In double glazed uPVC, sliders run on precision rollers and seal with brush and compression gaskets, so a wide opening stays smooth to use and quiet when closed.
Profile accreditation
Northstar uses uPVC profile systems accredited under the uPVC Windows Alliance Industry Code of Practice.
The accreditation relates to profile performance and suitability for Australian conditions.
We can also supply selected uPVC window and door systems rated to Passive House standard.
