Additionally, a review of eleven U.S. regions and a top level view of the U.S. are

presented in the Statistical Review portion of the report.

Ducker has been conducting residential and nonresidential market studies

continuously since 1982 for AAMA. Prior to that, studies were conducted for the Sealed

Insulating Glass Manufacturers Association (SIGMA) since 1978. This association is

now called the Insulating Glass Manufacturers Alliance (IGMA). Additionally, our

research history goes back to 1972 when we first developed a demand model for flat

glass usage in the United States. Ducker further produces many syndicated and

custom market research studies for the fenestration and building products markets

annually. These include the annual studies of the North American Flat Glass Market

Study and a bi-annual study of the Northern American Fabricated Glass Market among

many others.

This following report is the result of a combined market study and a database

analysis funded by AAMA and WDMA in a cooperative effort. The intent in combining

these studies is to develop a full database and a comprehensive report on all segments

of the window and door market. The database is designed to be utilized for studies into

the foreseeable future and to compare ongoing trends.

1. Methodology The role of Ducker Worldwide is to combine primary and secondary market research efforts with its own body of knowledge to profile and track residential and nonresidential segments of fenestration market volume. As a major input to the research, Ducker receives confidential disclosures from AAMA and WDMA members along with non-members. However, multiple industry sources, such as demand models, raw material and component suppliers, and internal

2

databases, are necessary and consistently used to triangulate market statistics. Public databases are also utilized, such as the U.S. Bureau of Census and other sources of construction metrics. In addition, Ducker interviewed several hundred home builders, contractors, installers and distributors, which help to develop indicative product usage factors and channel flow as a cross reference to the various manufacturers’ input. This report, the U.S. National Statistical Review and Forecast, and associated regional reports were prepared by Ducker Worldwide LLC. Opinions and estimates constitute the best judgment as of the date of this material and are subject to change without notice, as additional information becomes available. Any interpretations derived from these findings are the sole responsibility of those using the report. Reproduction without the explicit, written consent of Ducker Worldwide LLC, AAMA, or the WDMA is strictly prohibited. The metrics published throughout the report represent the best judgment of Ducker through March of 2010; however the Census or other sources of construction metrics frequently do not finalize the totals of 2009 data until late into 2010, and they also will revise historical information. Ducker takes into account these historical revisions when updating models and thus minor differences between published construction data from the 2007 study may occur. These revisions do not impact market size estimates for fenestration categories unless stated throughout the report. Please note that while all individual numbers are accurate as rounded, totals may not always add due to rounding.

The following report represents our research and analytical efforts beginning in

late 2009.

2. Purpose The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive single report detailing the window and door market for WDMA and AAMA.

3. Methodology and Time Line Study findings are based upon disclosures from window and door manufacturers, suppliers, secondary construction data metrics and our prior database and experience in providing this information in the past. Study findings are segmented by geographic region as illustrated in Appendix A to this report.

4. Terminology Certain terms are used throughout the report which may require definition. Also, in our analysis, assumptions are made regarding units and construction activity. The following is a list of definitions and assumptions used in the development of this report. Specific questions on terminology throughout the report can also be directed to Ducker Worldwide, LLC. Bifold Door: An interior application utilizing two or more individual door leafs, conjoined with hinges, which operate on a sliding track. A bifold door is primarily a form of a closet door. However, bifold doors do not include folding doors or overlapping sliding doors. Bifold door volume counted on a per leaf basis. Included in interior door volume. Closet Doors: An interior door used for passage from room or hallway to closet. Included in interior door volume, but not reported separtately.

Doors: Units are defined as actual door slabs and panels, rather than openings where one or more slabs would be used. Excluded from door units are closet doors, bifold doors and service and industrial doors. Entry Doors: A door opening that allows passage from the exterior of a building or home to the interior. In the residential market, hinged rear entrance doors connecting an attached garage to a home are included, while patio doors are excluded and reported separately. In the nonresidential market, entry doors also include vestibule doors. Flush Door Construction: A method of door construction whereby a thin face material is attached to a light internal frame (often made of wood). Face material may include high density fiberboard, steel, wood veneer, MDO, or other products. Framing: Metal, wood, fiberglass, vinyl, or composite members comprising the window. In operable windows, framing members include both a operational portion and fixed portion of the window. Insulating Glass: A combination of two or more panes of glass with a hermetically sealed air space between the panes of glass separated by a spacer. This space may or may not be filled with an inert gas, such as argon. Interior Door: Includes both Passageway and Closet doors. Nonresidential: Nonresidential construction is defined as all commercial buildings, from small to large, that are not meant for residence. Hotels, motels, and dormitories are included in nonresidential figures. Patio Doors: Units are defined as openings at the manufacturer level, to avoid double counting units due to multiple operable, or inoperable panels. For example, a double French door and a triple panel sliding door are all considered one unit. Figures in this report identify units with single panels and multiple panels alike as one singular unit. Further segmentation by number of panels in detailed in the Patio Door section of this report. Passageway Doors: An interior door used for passage from room or hallway to room. Excluded from this are garage hinged and service doors.

5

Residential: Residential construction is defined as dwelling units: single-family attached, single-family detached, multi-family and manufactured homes. Apartment buildings, although considered commercial construction, are included in our residential figures, except for high rise construction which uses commercial shop fabricated windows. Stile and Rail Door Construction: A traditional method of construction for wood doors whereby the structural components are exposed. Structural components include wood stiles (vertical beams) and rails (horizontal beams), which encompass wood panels. Stiles and rails are held together using glue and dowel pins, while panels often “float” within channels grooved into the stile and rail components. Skylights: Standardized unit specified by product. Not included in window volumes. Sloped Glazing: Nonstandard specification, also called custom skylights or monumental glazing. This product is captured in curtainwall data, but not segmented out. Does not include sunrooms, which are a separate category. Study Regions: Eleven geographic regions are used throughout the report. Appendix A to this report illustrates the definition of these regions. Sunrooms: Separate classification from sloped glazing. Not included in window volumes, but some windows may be ultimately destined for use in a sunroom. Vision Glass Area: Unless otherwise noted, glass area figures are surface measure of vision glass area. Figures for spandrel glass materials also are surface measured. Windows: Units are defined as openings at the manufacturer level. However, the definition of a unit differs among manufacturers (e.g., a bay window to some may be three openings while to others it may be one). This does not account for multiple windows that are nailed together at the distributor level for one opening. Figures in this report more closely reflect units at the manufacturer level, rather than openings at the job site. Sliding and hinged patio or French doors are considered a separate market from windows.
