Gas Strut Windows

What is a Gas Strut Window?

A Gas Strut Window is a unique pass-through window that opens upward with the help of commercial-grade gas struts, similar to the smooth lift of a car’s hatchback. With just a gentle push, the window glides open to create a wide, unobstructed opening that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces.

When open, the sash rests above the frame like a canopy, creating a pass-through between spaces. When closed, the window seals tightly for security and energy efficiency.

At ActivWall, our custom Gas Strut Windows are designed for style, performance, and ease of use. They are popular in kitchens, bars, and entertaining areas where indoor-outdoor living is a priority, but they’re equally at home in commercial settings like restaurants, coffee shops, and event venues. Built to your specifications with premium materials and finishes, each window delivers both function and a true “wow factor.”

1. Select Your System

Crafted with durable materials, ActivWall Gas Strut Windows are available in three frame systems that provide strength, durability, and flexibility for unique design possibilities. Each unit gets commercial-grade aluminum, even in residential settings. Choose your system depending on whether the unit will be used in an interior or exterior setting.

Exterior Use

Thermally Broken Aluminum (standard): This standard system features thermal breaks for maximum energy efficiency.
Wood-Clad Aluminum: This system combines the warmth and beauty of wood on the interior with the strength and low maintenance of thermally broken aluminum on the exterior. The modified aluminum profile accepts a snap-in wood component that can be painted or stained according to the customer’s preference.

Interior Use

Aluminum: This aluminum system offers the same high-quality frame material as our standard system without thermal breaks. This option is best suited for interior room dividers or other environments that don’t require climate control or insulation.
