is this for side sliding window?

We have ours in our side-sliding window. It IS possible to install it that way, but you will need to reinforce it if you're concerned about security or stability issues. Also, the panel that's included for top sliding windows may or may not work -we had to custom cut a piece of plastic to fit and drilled it into the window frame.

Yes, I had mine done in less than 5". Instruction are basically the same for either type of sliding window.UPDATED 5/11/2015: This will work in a casement/crank window with a little ingenuity, please see my review on how others solved this problem.

Yes the sides slide independently. I measured my door and adjusted sides so they were even. The center doesn't seem to move after you attach the white screen. I was skeptical, but it turned out to be a good investment. Very rigid.

No. It only slides in the same direction that it opens (I set it up to be the driver side).,

Yes, that's what we use it for. Looking at it from the outside, the left and top are attached to the door frame. The right side is attached to the edge of our sliding screen door as there was no part of the frame to attach it to. Since this replaces the sliding screen, that works for us as the sliding screen remains stationary. So far I love it - the dogs took a few minutes to figure it out and it works great. Later this weekend I'll write a review and see if I can include a pic or video...

Hello Richard, I had to Google some pictures of the windows in question :-) These wedges will work with any window that slides up/down or side to side. The trick is, the make sure you clean/dry the surface before you stick the Velcro on the window. Also make sure the wedge is affixed securely to the Velcro. I have two on each window downstairs (split level house) and they hold well. I truly believe that these wedges will give you extra time if an intruder tries to get into your home. Hope this helps.

No, it actually slides into a track on the window. There is a thin hard plastic film that slides into the track and the fuzzy part sticks out.

Yes it is. But careful the last you want to install it should be the sliding glasses. Costumer service is excellent if you need any replacement or help.

Sorry I missed the fact that your using a window. This unit I believe can be used that way, but its more for a wall opening.

This bar is fixed to the door frame and props against the farthest (and innnermost) moving door. If you are going to slide to the other side, the bar will then be on the "wrong side." In that context it may not work -- assuming my understanding of your description is correct.

It depends on the height of the window. The window kit did not help in my case. The lip was not long enough the buldge right after the short lip made it unusable even for an up and down window because of the window ledge so for a side window you will definitely have the same issue. When I try to use it it was so awkward it kept popping out. I had to build some contraption to make useable even then I still have issues.

Its more for windows, it has a suction cup to attach. I guess you could come up with a way to attach if you wanted.

Yes, it is as you are looking at the window. I replaced one a few months ago, and it's pretty easy. Only a 10 minute job if you have a hex head. Make sure you have it tight enough before opening the window.

Yes -- sliding door & windows. This item will allow you to be forewarned while you're in the house.

I used it last summer in a horizontal window (slides l/r). I used a piece of wood to hold the sliding side firm against the a/c, and a thin sheet of opaque Plexiglas over the top. A mount was installed to support from the bottom. I filled any open spaces that remained with double-sided adhesive weather stripping. The sliders are only for regular (up/down) type windows, save them for if you ever need them (my landlord changed our windows from slide to regular this summer).

Anyone ever install infront (outside of house) of the sliding door. Where your sliding screen would be. This would allow your glass sliding door to shut as normal. I picture adding my own brush sweep along the vertical edge to help with air lose. Comments and pictures would be helpful.

Yes, it's designed for either horizontal or vertical use. We use it vertically (without the adjustable side panels). Fits snugly in the window and it works great! Very quiet fan too.
