Supply and Install Two Sliding Windows

Russcos Glazing Supplies and Installs Spotswood Obscure Glass Sliding Windows at Eimeo Home

At Russcos Glazing, we pride ourselves on providing tailored glazing solutions that meet the specific needs of each home and homeowner. Recently, we completed a project at a lovely residence in Eimeo, Queensland, where we supplied and installed two Spotswood Obscure toughened glass sliding windows with sleek black frames. This installation not only improved the functionality of the home but also delivered added privacy and a stylish modern touch.

Project Overview

The homeowners in Eimeo required new windows to replace outdated units that no longer provided adequate ventilation or privacy. After discussing their goals with the Russcos Glazing team, it was clear they needed a window solution that balanced natural light, airflow, privacy, and durability.

We recommended Spotswood Obscure toughened glass sliding windows with black aluminium frames. This combination offered the homeowners everything they were looking for: privacy from neighbouring properties, smooth operation, a modern design, and the toughness required to stand up to Queensland’s coastal climate.

The two windows we supplied and installed were:

• 290mm x 1180mm XO sliding window: A slim-profile window with a fixed left panel and a sliding right sash.
• 590mm x 1180mm OX sliding window: A wider window with a sliding left sash and a fixed right panel.
  

Both window sizes were selected to suit specific areas of the home, where compact window designs were necessary for wall space constraints but ventilation was still a priority.

Premium Features

A key feature of this installation was the use of Spotswood Obscure toughened glass. Unlike clear glass, obscure glass has a textured finish that distorts visibility while still allowing plenty of natural light to pass through. This made it the perfect choice for the Eimeo home, as the windows were installed in areas where privacy was essential, such as bathrooms or side walls facing neighbours.

The toughened glass provided additional safety, as it is heat-strengthened and designed to resist impact. In the unlikely event of breakage, toughened glass shatters into small, blunt pieces, significantly reducing the risk of injury.

The windows were framed in sleek black aluminium, a popular choice for contemporary homes. Black frames create bold, clean lines and contrast beautifully with a range of exterior finishes. They also offer a timeless design that adds immediate sophistication and curb appeal to the property.

The sliding window design provided smooth, effortless operation, with the XO and OX configurations ensuring the homeowners could maximise ventilation exactly where they needed it most.

Professional Installation by Russcos Glazing

Our experienced Russcos Glazing team handled the entire project from start to finish, ensuring a seamless process and high-quality result.

We began with precise onsite measurements to guarantee that the new windows would fit perfectly into the existing wall openings. This is particularly important for sliding windows, where accuracy ensures smooth operation and proper sealing against wind and rain.

Once the windows were custom-made to specification, we carefully removed the old units and prepared the openings for the new installations. Each window was positioned and secured with care, ensuring that all seals were tight to prevent drafts and moisture ingress.

Our team also tested the sliding sashes to confirm that the windows opened and closed smoothly, and that the locking mechanisms operated correctly for security and ease of use.

By the end of the installation, both windows were perfectly fitted, fully functional, and visually striking against the home’s exterior.

Homeowner Benefits

The new Spotswood Obscure sliding windows provided the Eimeo homeowners with a range of valuable benefits:

• Enhanced Privacy: The obscure glass finish allows natural light to fill the rooms while blocking visibility from outside, ideal for bathrooms, laundry rooms, or other private areas.
  
• Improved Ventilation: The XO and OX sliding configurations provided excellent control over airflow, allowing the homeowners to open the windows partially or fully as needed to let in the fresh coastal breezes.
  
• Modern Aesthetic: The black frames added a sleek, contemporary touch to the home’s exterior, complementing the overall design and increasing curb appeal.
  
• Durability and Safety: The toughened glass ensures long-term performance and provides peace of mind with its enhanced safety features.
