Fixed glass is easy to install in a rough opening; simply follow the sequence of steps outlined at left.
There is no reason that every window in a barn should be operable. After you have provided for adequate ventilation with moveable windows, use fixed panes or barn sashes that are cheaper and easier to install. Barn sash can simply be mounted in a window frame with quarter-round molding and caulking to make it air tight.
If you want large areas of glass for either solar heating or more light, consider using custom-made pieces of Thermopane glass. Thermopane is two layers of plate glass fused to a thin metal frame. It is also called insulated glass and is readily available from glass suppliers, made to your specifications. Thermopane units can be mounted directly in framed window openings just as barn sash is.
If you are considering passive solar heat for your livestock barn, an inexpensive option is using replacement glass panels for sliding doors. This is sometimes called patio glass. This glass comes in 5/8-inch Thermopane, and in several standard sizes including 34 by 76 inches. An extra advantage of these units is that the glass is usually tempered to resist breakage. On a square-foot basis, they are inexpensive, energy efficient and easy to install.
