Two PGT Custom Windows and Doors products named on DWM's annual Readers' Choice Awards
NORTH VENICE, Fla., February 13, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PGT Custom Windows and Doors, America's authority in high-performance windows and doors, is excited to share that it was recognized twice on Door and Window Market Magazine's annual Readers' Choice Awards for its WinGuard Vinyl Preferred line and the WinGuard Preferred View Sliding Glass Door. According to DWM, each year, the staff gathers information on the industry's best products to share with its audience. In December, the publication then asks readers to wrap up the year by participating in a Readers' Choice Survey, selecting the products they see as most significant to the industry. In 2024, DWM's annual awards featured 30 categories — nine more than the previous year. In the Energy Star Rated-Door and Window Series and Systems category, PGT's WinGuard Vinyl line was named. These versatile, stylish products add an extra layer of protection and comfort to a home's interior. Additionally, the impact-resistant glass is high-performance Low-E and has a multi-chamber frame that provides energy savings that can lower energy bills. With over 7,200 glazing and frame options available, they are designed to complement any home style seamlessly. In the Doors — Folding, Sliding and Patio category, PGT's WinGuard Preferred View Sliding Glass Door was specifically selected by the readers. The glass door's narrow panel profiles — measuring just 2 1/2 inches wide — allow for more glass and less frame in each panel, creating expansive sightlines that invite natural light while providing an extra layer of protection. Up to eight glass door panels move horizontally along tracks, with expansions of up to 40 feet for uninterrupted views and blending indoor and outdoor spaces. Readers reported the product as sleek and innovative. "We are honored to have two of our products recognized in DWM's annual Readers' Choice Awards," said Bob Keller, MITER Brands' Senior Vice President of Research and Development. "Our teams strive to understand the aspirations of homeowners and create products that can make those dreams a reality.
