UltraVue Lift Slide Window

Why UltraVue Lift Slide Window?

The UltraVue Lift Slide Window system features low profile carriages to create big views on large windows. Lift slide windows provide maximum view/maximum value allowing larger openings with fewer panels and more glass. Very large panels glide easily and quietly, with no friction on the bottom track or weather-seal, while providing security and weatherability. Panels can stop at any position for easy access and ventilation. For a wall design solution that gives a large view and avoids door sill issues, use a lift slide window instead of a door. Suitable for wood, aluminum clad wood, all metal or PVC sashes. LEED credits can be earned under Indoor Environmental Quality for Natural Ventilation, Daylighting, and Views.
