Gerkin has long been known for building the best sliding windows on the market! With our long history in building this style window, we have perfected the performance of this window to the envy of our competition! The 6000 slider is tighter than many of our competitor’s best performing casement style windows!
No other style window can offer the overall value in performance and cost as can the 6000 series slider. The 6000 slider is our best priced window, but offers terrific performance with an incredibly low .04 air infiltration rate. The 6500 window complements the 6000 slider as a stand-alone fixed window or can be used to mull fixed and specialty shapes in order to create custom configurations.
We have meticulously designed this window to work with unmatched performance under extreme conditions. We have multiple chambers of vinyl along with areas of extruded aluminum reinforcement and double strength glass. This window really shows its strength and performance under the harshest of conditions.
This stylish 2 1/2" slimline design has a beveled frame profile, fusion-welded sash and frame corners, and twin weather seals. The 6000 glides easily on two sets of tandem rollers and closes into a fully interlocked frame.
If you’re looking for a terrific appearance, great performance, easy operation, and low maintenance all at a very reasonable cost, the 6000 slider is a great choice!
