Windows and Doors

Some of a homeowner's most vexing decisions center around doors and windows. With so many choices available and so many variables, the selection process can take a long time. We suggest doing a lot of looking when you're considering either a new installation or a change. Home shows and tours, open houses and businesses that have displays can be extremely beneficial. The Window & Door Manufacturers Association, (800) 223-2301 has many articles on design, technical and energy issues, helpful links and an excellent glossary (with pictures) for both doors and windows. Especially helpful is their Frequently Asked Questions section. www.wdma.com
