In-Stock Vinyl Slider Replacement Package

The rambler's sliders drag and the basement ones frost. If the openings are standard sizes, white vinyl sliders off the shelf get the house done without the long order wait.

An in stock vinyl slider replacement package uses white vinyl sliders in the common sizes our supplier keeps on the shelf, so a rambler, a split-level or a basement with standard openings can have new windows within weeks of signing. JMB Builders measures every opening, writes stock or built-to-order on each line, orders the house and installs across the Twin Cities metro. Send photos and we reply within one business day, or book a free in-home estimate.

Sliders are the most standardized window there is. Ramblers, split-levels and basements were framed to a handful of common widths and heights, and our supplier keeps white vinyl sliders in those sizes in stock. When the openings match, the windows are pulled, delivered and installed within weeks, with no built-to-order wait.

Basements are the clearest case. Block-wall basement windows were set in a few standard sizes for decades, and a stock slider fits most of them as a full-frame unit once the old steel or aluminum one is out. Main-floor rambler sliders are often standard too, especially in houses from the 1970s on. Older or custom-framed openings are built to order on the same quote, and we tell you which is which at the measure.

The window is a white vinyl slider with the opening sash removable for cleaning, Low-E glass with argon as the standard package, and a half screen. Options such as MI Windows, Silver Line and Ply Gem are lines our supplier stocks in common sizes. The whole order goes through ABC Supply as one order so every window arrives together.

Get a written quote for this job

Three photos and a sentence is enough: a reply within one business day, or ask for a free in-home estimate. Or text the photos to 763-250-3621.

Photos (optional)

Up to 3: one wide shot of the area, one close-up of the opening or trim, one of anything you're unsure about.

How do you want your quote?

Free, no obligation. Every quote is written and itemized, so you can compare it line by line.

What you supply

  • One photo of each window from inside and outside, basement included, labeled by room
  • The width and height of one or two openings with a tape across them
  • Which bedrooms are bedrooms, upstairs and down, so egress is checked
  • Which side you want to slide at each window
  • A paint color if you want new trim painted; painting is a separate line

What JMB supplies

  • A measure of every opening with a stock or built-to-order call written per line
  • Egress check at every bedroom slider, including the basement
  • White vinyl sliders from stock through ABC Supply, all on one order
  • Removal of the old units, sill pans, flashing, foam and sealant at every opening
  • Exterior finish at siding or block, interior trim primed and caulked
  • Haul-away, cleanup and photos in your job folder

How it is priced: per opening

Quoted in writing from your photos, with a reply within one business day. What moves the number:

  • How many openings take a stock size vs. a built-to-order unit
  • Which stocked line, and the glass package in stock
  • Basement windows in block and how the opening is sealed and finished
  • A bedroom slider that needs a wider built-to-order unit or a casement for egress
  • Siding type and exterior finish on the main-floor windows
  • Rot or block damage found when the old units come out, priced as written on the quote

Measure one basement window and one main-floor slider and send both with the photos. Those two sizes usually tell us whether the house is a stock-size house.

How long it takes

Stock sliders: usually on site within a week or two of signing, subject to what the supplier has that week. A rambler's main floor and basement install in two to three working days.

Situations and options

Basement sliders only, from stock

Four to six basement windows in standard block openings, pulled from stock and installed in a day. The quickest fix for the coldest windows in the house.

Whole rambler from stock

Main floor and basement sliders all in stock sizes, delivered together and installed in one stretch. The living room picture window, if there is one, is built to order and timed to arrive with them.

Stock sliders, egress units ordered

Most windows are stock; the bedroom sliders that are too narrow for egress get a wider built-to-order slider or a casement in the same white, on the same quote.

In-Stock Vinyl Slider Replacement Package: questions, answered

Do basement slider windows come in stock sizes?

Most of them. Block basement windows were set in a few standard sizes for decades, and our supplier stocks white vinyl sliders in those sizes. The old steel or aluminum unit comes out, the opening is checked and sealed, and the stock slider goes in full frame. Odd openings are built to order on the same quote.

How fast can in stock slider windows be installed?

Stock units are usually on site within a week or two of signing, depending on what the supplier has that week; the date is written on the quote. A basement is a day; a rambler's main floor and basement together run two to three working days. One built-to-order unit in the mix sets the start date, or gets a second short visit.

Will a stock slider meet egress in a basement bedroom?

Only if the opening is wide enough, because a slider opens half its width. Many basement openings are not, and a basement bedroom window has to meet the egress size. We measure every bedroom window and tell you which can take a stock slider and which need a wider built-to-order unit, a casement or a larger opening.

Are in stock sliders white only?

Yes. White is what is kept in stock. A color exterior, a wood-look interior or special glass is built to order. Most rambler and basement sliders are white anyway, and the stock units match built-to-order white units from the same line if you mix them.

Which lines do you use for an in stock slider package?

Options such as MI Windows, Silver Line and Ply Gem are white vinyl lines our supplier keeps in common slider sizes. We quote the one that fits your openings and budget, and the order goes through ABC Supply as one order so the windows arrive together. We are the installer.

Can the old aluminum sliders be replaced with stock vinyl sliders?

Usually, yes. Old aluminum sliders come out in one piece, frame and sash together, and leave a standard rough opening behind. A stock vinyl slider goes in full frame with a sill pan, flashing and foam, and the trim is finished inside and out. The frost and the dragging go with the aluminum.
