About this asset

Designed for contemporary elevations, this aluminium sliding window Revit family features a lower two-panel slider beneath a wide fixed transom light. The assembly combines a full-width fixed transom unit positioned directly above a dual-panel horizontal sliding window. A slim metallic profile defines the outer frame, dividing transom bar, and sliding sashes, giving the unit a clean, contemporary appearance. The lower section is split into two equal-width glazed panels set within internal tracks, while the top fixed lite provides uninterrupted daylight capture. Glazing displays standard light-blue transparency tint. Clean framing transitions and integrated sill reveals make the component visually consistent across orthographic floor plans, wall sections, and exterior elevations.

The download is a 522 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Loading this wall-hosted RFA family directly into an active project automatically cuts the host wall geometry cleanly upon placement. Users can adjust sill height, head height, and overall frame dimensions via type or instance properties depending on project requirements. The lightweight file geometry ensures minimal impact on project file size and overall model performance across dense multi-unit housing developments.

Suited for modern multi-family housing, townhouses, urban apartments, and light commercial office spaces, this unit provides operable natural ventilation below with daylight harvesting above. It integrates effectively into bedrooms, living rooms, and circulation corridors, pairing seamlessly with standard cavity brickwork, rendered blockwork, or rainscreen cladding assemblies. Specifiers commonly detail this arrangement as a composite sliding window, transom slider, or horizontal glazed sash unit.
