Parrett Windows & Doors

What Parrett Windows & Doors does

Parrett Windows & Doors, operating as Parrett Manufacturing, Inc., is a privately held custom manufacturer of wood and aluminum-clad wood windows, doors, grilles, and accessories founded in 1982 and headquartered in Dorchester, Wisconsin. The company builds every product to order against individual customer specifications, offering a broad portfolio that includes awnings, bi-fold, casements (inswing/outswing, crankout, pushout, Euro tilt-turn), fixed/architectural, hoppers, hung windows (spiral balance, weight & chain, hurricane impact, triple hung), pivot windows, transoms, and door systems (entry swing, bi-fold, lift & slide, sliding). Technical differentiation is rooted in true historic replication capabilities (e.g., 100-year-rated weight & chain hardware, FSC-certified pine, custom extruded aluminum-clad mahogany systems), hurricane impact-rated fabrication (ASTM 1886-05/1996-05 Zone 3 Level D), high thermal performance (window U-factors as low as 0.31 with Guardian SNX 62/27 LowE), and configurability beyond standard size/shape limitations (curved glass, 90-degree corner glass, custom radius shapes).

The business model is direct sales-led and quote-based: the company engages architects, designers, contractors, and end customers through quote request, specification, and literature request forms, providing cutsheets, architectural details, and testing data to support specification in commercial, institutional, historic, and high-end residential projects. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of custom-built-to-order units, with no published price list; pricing varies by configuration, wood species (Accoya, mahogany, walnut, oak, alder, etc.), glass, hardware, and performance rating. Customer segments are organized vertically across residential, historic preservation, religious institutions, commercial, and universities, with flagship references including the Apthorp Building (NYC), Sisters of Charity Convent, Loyola University New Orleans Thomas Hall, Penn State Navy Yard, and individual high-end residences. Distribution is U.S.-wide with opportunistic cross-border delivery (Ontario confirmed), supported by a digital presence across Houzz, YouTube, Pinterest, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter, plus segment-specific content blogs. The company operates two shifts with 11-50 employees and has no disclosed external funding, acquisitions, or parent company.
