Hi Papa-T
I just re-read your original post and concur that parallel is the way to go if you chose to hard wire a second switch.
Having said that, and understanding you have an emergency exit window in your bedroom, I would still be apprehensive about shutting myself in there if heaven forbid something catastrophic were to occur.
Given that your prime concern was the top of the slide 'hingeing' inward during violent wind gusts, would an option to brace the slide with say a precise length of 2" x 2" against the opposite wall work?"
It would certainly stop the motion, maintain the weather seal, and give you full access and an egress route in an emergency.
Just trying to help you think outside the box (excuse the intended pun please)
Hope you sort it to your satisfaction either way.
Best regards
John
