2021 Window + Door Award Winners
This year’s winners exemplify innovation in the residential fenestration industry
Last year, in recognition of the ongoing struggle and disruption to the fenestration industry caused by the pandemic, Window + Door suspended its traditional awards program to recognize the special achievements made by companies dealing with an unprecedented crisis.
This year, the Window + Door Awards returned to its traditional format, recognizing the innovations in the residential fenestration products industry. Judges reviewed entries in eight categories this year to determine which products exemplified innovation and answered a market need in a unique, effective way.
