Monorail Windows
Modern sliding system combining a large seamless fixed glass lite direct-glazed into the outer frame with a single sliding sash for ultra-slim sightlines.
Engineering & Performance Highlights
The AAS Monorail Sliding system is the preferred choice of minimalist architects seeking the purity of large, uninterrupted fixed glass panes paired with the functionality of an operable sliding vent. By glazing the fixed pane directly into the outer perimeter frame, the system eliminates the bulk of a secondary sash frame, maximizing natural daylight transmission and creating a striking asymmetrical aesthetic. The single sliding sash glides smoothly along a concealed internal rail, delivering clean lines and exceptional structural efficiency.
Key Engineering Advantages
- Direct-glazed fixed pane eliminates redundant sash frames, maximizing glass area
- Ultra-slim perimeter profile for clean contemporary residential architecture
- Concealed internal sliding track shielded from dirt and rainwater accumulation
- Cost-effective alternative to multi-track sliding with superior thermal performance
- Multi-point locking with integrated handle options
