By combining advanced Low-E glass, argon-filled units, and multi-chamber frames, our windows and doors can help reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 30% all year round.
Crafted from premium vinyl or wood, our products withstand harsh weather for 25+ years of trouble-free performance, backed by a comprehensive warranty.
Choose from a variety of styles, finishes, and glass options for a truly 100% tailored look that complements your home’s unique character.
Single Hung windows deliver classic curb appeal with modern engineering built for Calgary’s climate extremes. The top sash stays fixed to preserve an unbroken air‑tight seal, while the lower sash glides up smoothly and tilts inward for effortless cleaning. Fewer moving components mean rock‑solid durability, and the slim sight‑lines flood your rooms with prairie sunlight without the drafts you remember from 1980s sliders.
Inside every unit you’ll find fusion‑welded vinyl frames, a triple‑seal weather‑strip, and 7/8‑inch Low‑E + Argon insulated glass that shrugs off –30 °C nights and summer UV alike. A constant‑force balance system lets the sash rise and settle with fingertip pressure—no sticking, no slamming. For Calgary homeowners who want simplified operation, tight energy performance, and a timeless look, Single Hung is the no‑brainer upgrade.
At Glarior we don’t peddle boxes of glass — we deliver expert installation and precise replacement, so every Single Hung window is square, sealed, and warrantied for Calgary’s demanding seasons.
A constant-force coil balance lets the sash glide up and down without jerks, while the tilt-in mechanism means both panes wipe clean from indoors — perfect for multi-storey Calgary infills.
The sealed stainless-steel cartridge is cycle-tested beyond 20,000 openings, so the window still lifts with two fingers after years of dusty Chinook winds. Because the coil is encased, it never needs oil and won’t seize when winter condensation freezes. One quick latch releases the sash to tilt inside, letting you wash exterior glass from a warm room instead of hauling out a ladder on an icy driveway.
Corners on both frame and sash are heat-fused into a monolithic unit that resists warping, air leakage, and the prairie winds funnelled down from the Rockies.
Mechanical screws can loosen when temperatures swing 40 °C in a single day. Fusion welding eliminates those joints, so the frame flexes as one piece and the compression seal stays even. That means no whistle on 100 km/h gusts, no spider-cracks from hail impact, and far less risk of the tiny leaks that drive up heating bills and foster mould in drywall returns.
Premium 7/8″ insulating glass with Low-E coating, argon gas, and SuperSpacer® technology slashes heat transfer, keeping January heating costs and July A/C bills in check.
At 1,045 m elevation, Calgary’s UV index runs high; the Low-E layer bounces excess solar energy back outside, preventing south-facing rooms from turning into saunas. Argon—six times denser than air—dampens convective heat loss when the mercury drops to –25 °C. A warm-edge “S-Class” spacer curbs edge-of-glass condensation, so you don’t wake to frozen sills. Upgrade to 1 ⅜″ triple-pane to hit Canada Greener Homes rebate targets and future-proof your resale value.
A bulb-seal interior pocket, flexible co-extruded exterior seal, and full-perimeter gasket create three redundant barriers against wind-driven rain and snow-melt.
When a Chinook roars in, rising air pressure squeezes the soft gaskets tighter, blocking dust, pollen, and traffic noise from Deerfoot Trail. By keeping moist indoor air away from the cold glass edge, the triple seal virtually eliminates winter condensation streaks and the mildew that follows. You’ll notice a quieter, more comfortable living space—no matter how hard the prairie gusts blow.
Die-cast locks and closed-back keepers fortify the meeting rail, while matching exterior profiles align perfectly with other Glarior sliders for a seamless façade.
Solid-zinc hardware resists corrosion from road-salt spray and provides up to triple the forced-entry strength of stamped latches. Each turn of the cam lock also pulls the sashes snugly together, boosting the air-seal without extra effort. Because all sight-lines and accessory grooves match our casement and horizontal slider series, a whole-house window package looks planned—not pieced together over time.
At Glarior, our Single Hung installations do more than slide up and down — they sharpen curb appeal, lock in energy savings, and stand up to Calgary’s roller‑coaster weather. Here’s what sets them apart:
A fixed upper sash plus Low‑E/Argon glazing create a tight thermal pocket, driving your home’s NRCan‑rated U‑factor down and your monthly bills with it.
The lower sash tilts inward on reinforced hinges, so you can wash exterior glass from inside — no ladders, no icy sidewalks, just streak‑free views.
Because only one sash moves, Single Hungs fit narrow Calgary lot‑line windows and leave room for interior blinds or furniture placement — ideal for infills and condos.
Triple‑seal weather‑stripping plus SuperSpacer® technology knock outside noise down a notch, letting you sleep through late‑night Chinook gusts and city traffic.

We know replacing windows is a big decision, and you may have questions. Here are some of the most common inquiries from our customers.
Yes. Their fixed top sash forms a continuous seal, and when paired with Low‑E coatings, Argon gas, and insulated spacers, they meet or exceed CSA A440 and NAFS coastal prairie energy standards.
A light silicone spray on the tracks once a year is usually enough. Our installs use stainless constant‑force coils rated for 20,000 cycles.
Most straight replacements don’t, but enlarging an opening or altering the structure does. We handle the City of Calgary permit paperwork if needed.
Appraisers cite energy upgrades and updated glazing as top ROI items. New, CSA‑certified Single Hungs can lift perceived value and speed up sale timelines.
Roughly 60–90 minutes per opening for a retrofit; full‑frame replacements take longer if exterior cladding needs adjustment.
Absolutely. We pre‑route for magnetic contact sensors on the bottom rail and can integrate with most smart‑home platforms.
Our vinyl frames are fusion‑welded, and glass options include laminated storm panes tested to ASTM E1996 impact standards.
Each profile is modelled with CFD airflow analysis and insulated with Low‑E4 coatings, marrying breakthrough tech with clean, modern sightlines.
From prairie‑ready triple glazing to heritage‑style grilles, choose the exact configuration, hardware finish, and jamb depth your project demands.
Every unit is CSA‑certified, pressure‑tested to 2200 Pa, and backed by a transferable limited lifetime warranty for finish, hardware, and glass seal.
Our Red Seal‑trained crews arrive with drop‑cloths, HEPA vacs, and laser levels — most jobs completed in a single day with zero mess left behind.
We inject 98 % pure Argon under vacuum, reducing conductive heat loss by up to 30 % versus air‑filled units — verified by third‑party spectrometry.
We source PVC virgin vinyl, marine‑grade fasteners, and SuperSpacer® technology, delivering premium windows at fair pricing with low‑interest financing plans.
