Old windows need space to swing open. Sliding windows do not. They move inside the frame. So you can put furniture right up to the window. You do not need to keep the area clear. This is very helpful near the bed in a bedroom, near the counter in a kitchen, or near the desk in a study room. Every part of the wall is free to use.<br><br>\n\n<b>2. You Can Put Furniture Anywhere<\/b><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because the window does not swing, your bed, sofa, desk, or cabinet can sit right next to it. Nothing blocks anything. This makes planning a small room much easier. You do not need to rethink where things go just because of the window. Even the corners of a room become useful. Storage near the window is no longer a problem.<\/span><br><br>\n\n<b>3.

In most kitchens, cabinets and counters are so big that does not leave much space to move freely.
