I don't think so, or at least not without a bit of jerry-rigging. But by all means, call the manufacturer; they'll know for sure.

If you have at least the minimum width for the fan as listed in its specifications, you can build a simple frame to hold the fan. I did this using 1 x 3 Red Oak and it worked wonderfully and it allowed me to use the Storm Guard feature to close my window when I am away. I went to the Air King site and they expressly discourage mounting the fan at a 90 degree angle to its intended installation. This is why I made a small frame within my sliding window casement. LOVE THIS FAN.

Not without adding a flange, of wood most likely to the vertical side that meets the sliding window. It will fit into the sash itself on the jamb side, but the unit is extremely front heavy (the side with the motor) and it will fall out if not held with a flange. The flange has to be attached to the fan housing and be wide enough to be screwed to the sliding window. Make sure your opening is bigger that the housing. Fill in above the fan with1/4" plywood or similar. Again this will pose more problems in working out how to get everything flush. It can be done, but you need to be, or have access to someone who is pretty handy at this sort of thing.

Hmm, not sure. I guess it would depend if your window opening was big enough. if it was you may be able to mount it sideways. The fan must be mounted to the window frame with screws. maybe you can contact the company and ask them.

I think if you have at least the minimum opening size, it should work in any window. You would just need to be able to fill the area around the fan for efficiency. I guess you could rotate the housing 90 degrees if needed to use the included panels to fill the gaps. I'm assuming you could close the window against the fan on two edges. I don't know if you could screw it in. I can't screw it into my walls even with up & down style windows. It would be impossible to open or close the windows and I need to remove it anyway when it's cold. I just close my double windows down on top of the housing and clamp it in. It works fine in my case. Hope this helps you somewhat. I think if you have at least the minimum opening size, it should work in any window. You would just need to be able to fill the area around the fan for efficiency.

I dont know, but I had their fans fail twice and had to fight with them over their warranty,which stated three years when I purchased it but was changed after I bought it. So far the third one sent me is still working and I am keeping my fingers crossed. I paid approx $200 for this fan and I feel it is way over priced.

It's a good question, it is a very powerfull fan, so long as your aware of the dimensions, and the need to secure it. I initially put it in the window, but found it to be too large and too noist, ended up installing it in the ceiling ventint through the gable. great fan though, just check your dimesions.

I am quite certain you could use them "in reverse" for any number of shelf slides. They appear to be strong enough to support far more weight than most any slides I have seen. The dimensions wouldn't be as relevent to that application. The slide mountings for the recessed tray of a key board sit approx 3/8 of an inch from the bottom of the keyboard tray. That would mean you would either have to mount theses slides on the outside edges of your shelf idea or fit them with a spacer about that size and use longer screws.

Normally can be used with existing plates that have a slot for the slider mechanism to move up/down freely. Another item to check is the heat sink fins for side to side clearance in multi-gang installations. It is sometimes difficult to get the plate holes lined up with dimmer or other switches in these installs.

I don't know, I bought them to use on rough ceramic tile. I read most of the reviews and some said it worked on tile, but that you should not use the slides again on wood floors in case it picked up some debris that would scratch your wood floors.

They should fit--they come with little inserts to make them fit more snugly on smaller doors. Whether the doors will still glide smoothly depends on how tight they are to the frame (and whether they're adjustable at all; some bifold doors can be adjusted with a little knob at the bottom)--but the slide lock is pretty slim so I doubt you'll have a problem.

They might, but they are pretty cheesy. Good luck with instructions. Returned mine bc they sent 2 of same side...

Yes. One slide for each side. Each slide is identical and can be used on either side.
1394371
That is where I use them in. They work great, just make sure you put them in right side up.

I don't see why not. I use them for my windows (sliding) and they work fine.

They don't - they are meant to attach to the side windows, not your windshield. You'll want something different for the windshield, if I am understanding your question correctly.

If the leg are wood, remove them. If they are steel , these sliders may not work.

They will not interfere with the side buttons. The buttons sit higher than the side grips.

Hello Patricia,I would have to agree with the others that have answered, as it appears these are only designed for doors. There is hardware available to give drawers a soft close. If you google "soft close drawer slides", you will find numerous sources to purchase online or at stores. I also saw in the google search a you tube video to aid with installation. Hope this helps. Take care.

You would need to make something that would hold the top of the air conditioner and to cover the space above it. I don't think this would work in a sideway sliding window. You would need another smaller window glass frame or wood to hold it.

As long as there is moulding on one side it'll work, if there is no moulding on either side the product will just slide down and will not work.

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-style window with a little ingenuity, please see my review on how others have fixed this problem.

I recommend you read all the reviews. They worked on four wooden chairs with a laminate floor. The company says something like: 'slides as if on wheels' and that is about right. You can't go wrong with these for this type of application.
