This innovative product opens up and out on sturdy commercial-grade struts to create a serving bar and pass-through window for outdoor entertaining.
The single-panel Gas Strut Window offers unobstructed visibility and can be utilized interior or exterior in both residential and commercial settings. It’s perfect for patios, outdoor kitchens, grilling areas, and outdoor bars.
Insulated glass and thermally broken aluminum components allow for high energy efficiency, and every product is fully customized to meet our customers’ needs.
Unlock the latches and give the Gas Strut Window a push from the inside. The sturdy commercial grade gas struts will take over and gently extend to create up to a 90 degree opening.
Many customers choose to install a countertop that extends out through the window to create an indoor-outdoor bar for serving.
When you are done grilling or dining outdoors, simply pull down the window from the outside to close, or you can use our optional ActivWall Pull Hook to close the servery window from the inside.
If you only want to open the window a few inches for ventilation, ask about our optional Kick Stand attachment.

It is used to achieve excellent corrosion resistance in harsh environments and is recommended for anyone near salt or pool water due to the harsh qualities of the air.
By nature, wood is an excellent insulator, so it can be highly energy-efficient when combined with other materials like insulated glass. It has inherent attributes, including grain, color, and knots variations. When making wood selections, these natural characteristics should be carefully considered, and whether you prefer wood with more or less “character.”
Wood density varies widely by species, which should be considered depending upon their end-use. Questions to consider include: whether the wood is being used for interior or exterior applications and whether it will be painted, stained, or remain in a more natural state. With the right wood species and product design, wood can be excellent for interior and exterior applications.
