Series 900 Commercial Horizontal Sliding Windows

Boyd's Series 900 is a high-performance commercial aluminum horizontal sliding window system available in XO, OX, OXO, or XOX configurations, including double-slider arrangements. Its thermal-break construction and HS-HC45 rating make the Series 900 an excellent choice for schools, universities, hospitals, military buildings, government offices, and other large-scale commercial or institutional applications.

The Series 900 features a 4" main frame depth, two tandem adjustable stainless-steel ball-bearing roller assemblies at each operating sash, dual weatherstripping, and insulated glass with continuous wraparound marine glazing up to 1" thick. Fixed and operating sash are removable from the interior for cleaning and maintenance without deglazing. True divided-lite, interior, and applied muntin options, screens, coordinated perimeter accessories, finish selections, and project-specific customization support unique architectural and operating requirements. When matching fixed lights are needed, Boyd can also help coordinate the appropriate fixed-window system.

Series 900 Horizontal Sliding Window Advantages

• Engineered for high performance and heavy-commercial requirements in demanding large-scale applications.

• Available in XO, OX, OXO, or XOX configurations to support different fixed- and operating-panel arrangements.

• Thermal-break construction helps separate interior and exterior aluminum members.

• Two tandem adjustable ball-bearing roller assemblies support smooth, reliable sash operation.

• Fixed and operating sash can be removed from the interior for cleaning and maintenance without deglazing.

• Continuous perimeter marine glazing accommodates insulated glass up to 1" thick.

• True divided-lite, interior roll-form, and applied muntin options support a range of architectural designs, and applied grids can permit reglazing without muntin removal.

• Screens, panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, nailing fins, leg extenders, finishes, matching fixed-window coordination, and customization options support unique project conditions.

Common Series 900 Coordination Items

• Operating configuration: Confirm XO, OX, OXO, or XOX configuration, the viewing side, operating sash or sashes, slide direction, lock location, draw-pull location, and meeting-rail condition.

• Egress and clear opening: Where emergency escape or rescue requirements apply, provide the required net clear opening, minimum clear dimensions, sill height, unit size, and authority-having-jurisdiction comments.

• Glazing: Confirm insulated-glass makeup, overall thickness, safety-glazing requirements, marine-glazing compatibility, coatings, spacers, sealants, and project thermal criteria.

• Muntins: Coordinate true divided-lite, interior roll-form, or applied muntin construction, grid pattern, lite divisions, profile, attachment method, finish, and reglazing requirements.

• Matching fixed lights: Coordinate frame depth, sightlines, glazing, muntins, finish, mullions, perimeter accessories, and visual alignment with the selected fixed-window system.

• Sash removal and screens: Preserve interior access for sash removal, cleaning, maintenance, screen removal, and hardware adjustment.

• Openings and accessories: Verify field dimensions, rough openings, substrates, anchors, panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, nailing fins, leg extenders, sealants, drainage, and surrounding construction before release.
