Anlin Windows & Doors

What Anlin Windows & Doors does

Anlin Windows & Doors is a U.S. vinyl replacement window and door manufacturer founded in 1990 by Tom Vidmar and headquartered in Clovis, California. The company operates as a subsidiary of MITER Brands, a multi-brand window and door conglomerate that also owns Milgard, with corporate functions centralized at MITER Brands' Harrisburg, Pennsylvania headquarters. Anlin serves the residential replacement market across the Western United States and Hawaii through an exclusive Authorized Anlin Dealer network, with no direct-to-consumer sales channel.

The company's product portfolio spans four core window series (Del Mar, Catalina, Panoramic, Coronado), the Malibu line of sliding patio and swinging French doors, plus specialty offerings including the Ali'i Extreme Series for Hawaii and the Designer Black™ aesthetic line. Underlying the products is a set of proprietary technologies: XTRU titanium dioxide-infused vinyl extrusion, the SunMatrix 4-layer Low-E glass coating system, QuadraGlide sealed-bearing rollers, QuadraTherm thermal coating, First Guard laminated security glass, and WaterShed screen technology. Products carry Energy Star, NFRC, and AAMA Gold Label certifications, and are backed by a transferable Limited Double Lifetime Warranty covering parts, labor, and accidental glass breakage.

Anlin's business model is wholesale hardware sales to authorized dealers, who then sell and install to homeowners. The company does not publicly disclose pricing, and consumers must obtain quotes through the dealer network. Revenue mechanics are therefore two-step (manufacturer-to-dealer, then dealer-to-consumer), with all warranty registration, service requests, and consumer support routed through Anlin's Consumer Services team. The company reports 1,000+ five-star reviews across Yelp, Google, and Facebook, and has 251–500 employees. Distribution is concentrated regionally, and a pending Foot Bolt Lock patent application signals continued investment in proprietary hardware IP.
