By far the most common type of replacement windows we install in San Diego are single slider windows. Single sliders have one fixed panel of glass and a second panel called the mobile sash, which slides horizontally to open on a track or in a groove.

Despite the record rain, BM Windows didn’t receive any calls about leaks on the replacement windows and doors we had previously installed for our San Diego customers.
