2 Pack Sliding Windows

Quality windows make a noticeable difference in any outbuilding, and these are built much better than many economy options. The tempered glass feels sturdy while allowing plenty of natural light inside. Sliding operation is smooth, and the removable fiberglass screen provides welcome ventilation without inviting insects inside. The black finish has a clean appearance that complements sheds, garages, barns, and workshops equally well. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic construction projects. Everything feels solid once mounted in place.

Easy install, look good even without trim

[Size: 8"x16", Color: White]
I ordered a pair of these windows in the 8x16 size for a shed/garage situation, where even a little ventilation and natural light goes a long way, compared to a living room where abundant windows and natural light would be the way to go.One benefit of the smaller size is as a deterrent to burglars; only a fairly trim person could hope to squeeze through the 8x16 opening. It's also very easy to add some kind of steel bars or mesh on the inside for even greater deterrent, but for the booty that can be had inside the typical shed, I think this smaller window opening is adequate deterrent without bars. It's also a quite attractive size visually for a small outbuilding like a shed where larger windows might look out of place.One pane is fixed while the other travels in a groove. That pane has a smooth latch for secure closing that seems airtight and should exclude rain and snow from coming inside, even wind-driven. The traveling pane covers the screen area, a plastic-mesh insect screen held in place by a very large rubbery O ring. This is the weakest part of the product in my view. The plastic mesh is alright but not abuse resistant, and could be poked out from the outside with probably just a finger because the moving pane covers the screen from the inside leaving the screen always exposed to the outside. It's probably secure enough if it's never disturbed or abused, but the insect mesh is just not that robustly installed. Not a deal breaker to me. If you're lucky it will never be a problem, but if critters go to work on the insect mesh they might dislodge it, creating a maintenance problem. If the moving pane is secured critters won't get it, but if it's left unlatched then a critter could push the pane aside and enter the building. Again, while I'm not pleased with the robustness of the insect screen or O ring, it's not a deal breaker. A pair of these windows is just $51.59 currently, under twenty-six bucks each. For tempered glass that opens, having an insect screen at all is pretty decent for the price. I've paid almost as much for similar but unventilated windows that had no moving pane or screen!The entire window unit is quite thick and has very good heft. It feels like a substantial window. The aluminum framing pieces are all of good thickness for strength and to not be easily accidentally bent. These window units are screwed together not welded. That was probably a good design choice since aluminum doesn't weld as readily as steel. A high-quality sealant (silicone?) was applied along the seams where the framing members are joined, ensuring water resistance. There might be a little rain infiltration if rain is driven by wind, but inspecting all the joints I think any leakage should be minimal.From the inside the windows have an appearance of decent quality. Not like high-end windows, but for utility spaces or a second bathroom these windows wouldn't be a bad choice in a dwelling. The latches have a smooth, quality feel, the paint looks good, and the tempered glass seems on par with higher quality windows. From the outside the appearance is not as good along the edges, but if the screw heads are covered by trim around the perimeter the windows could look pretty good. What detracts from the appearance is that the screws are very conspicuous. Strange design choice to have the screws show, especially so many of them! Again, covering them all with vinyl or wood trim would solve the problem. Also the perimeter of the window has all butt joints. Miter joints (diagonal cut) look better and are standard in better-quality windows.The conspicuous exterior screws are the only thing holding the window in place, so a burglar could just remove and steal the window with nothing but a screwdriver. Thus at least covering the screws with trim seems advisable. Another option would be to substitute stainless steel nails, because removing nails with a nail puller is a lot more trouble than unscrewing screws, and would likely damage the window unit, destroying its value.Even with the shortcomings noted above, I'm quite pleased with this product. There is a lot of value here for a pretty low price. These are very good windows for certain applications, but shouldn't be confused for high-end windows, or windows suitable for most living spaces. For a living room or bedroom I think most people would be disappointed with these, but for a second bathroom, a utility space, or an outbuilding these could be really great.As noted, it's possible that maintenance issues could arise with the insect screen that would not occur with high-end windows. And while the installation is as simple as screwing them in from the outside (once the framing is done), it's just as easy for a ne'er do well to un-install these windows from the outside, unless you take steps to thwart that, steps that could require considerable time and effort.Accounting for all the above, this is still a five-star item at twenty-six bucks apiec...

I ordered a pair of these windows in the 12X24" size and was happy with the purchase. One nice thing is that they come in a variety of sizes and configurations -- vertical, horizontal, wide, narrow etc. So if you have a use in mind, order the size you want -- you're not limited to the sizes a hardware or big box store might have on hand.The windows are made with an aluminum frame, with tempered glass, sliding windows and removable screens. They lock securely, slide easily and are easy to mount. There are really just basic instructions included but they recommend you use weatherproof tape around your opening before installing the windows. They mount from the outside and are secured by screws (provided) through the outside trim.While it is not mentioned, I intend to install in a window frame of the correct size, in my case probably using 2X2" dimension lumber, as these windows are going into a deer stand. In a regular shed you would be framing the windows with 2X4s. I will also be taking the screens out as the stands will be used in the fall, presumably after flying insects would be a problem. Could you mount them in an opening in a piece of plywood, without a frame -- say in a fish-house or chicken coop? Yes, but you're asking for leak problems because of the flex of plywood sheets, and they would not be nearly as durable as installed in a frame.The quality of the windows seems okay; I note that the holes in the top of the window frame are factory sealed with silicone seal. These windows are not airtight, but they look good and will keep out the weather. And since they are made of aluminum you won't have any rot or bug/bird damage to worry about. At about $40 each, they seem reasonably-priced, if a bit high, but they will do the job on all your secondary buildings where absolute weatherproofing is not critical. What you see is what you get, and they serve that purpose well.
