What Advanced Screen Systems does

Advanced Screen Systems (ASSI) is a privately held US manufacturer of OEM-integrated screen and protection solutions for door and window producers. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Gilbert, Arizona, the company operates as a subsidiary of UHD Innovations and a division of Unique Home Designs. Its product portfolio addresses five solution categories — security, fall protection, fire protection, pet resistance, and weather protection — through products that fit pre-hung entry doors, sliding patio doors, and residential windows. Customer segments are door manufacturers, patio door manufacturers, and window manufacturers, with downstream consumer pull from security-, pet-, and wildfire-conscious households.

The company's core technology is Meshtec high-tensile woven stainless steel mesh, retained in aluminum frames and protected under US Patents 6,802,357 and 8,191,606 held by Meshtec International Co., Ltd., with ASSI holding licensed trademark rights. All products are engineered under the proprietary 1Build integration framework, which sizes, configures, and validates each screen product to drop into existing OEM door and window specifications without process changes. Compliance with AAMA 1901-25, ASTM F2090, California Chapter 7A, NRC Canada, and Australian AS 1530.4/1530.8/3959 standards is positioned as a primary differentiator.

Revenue is generated through hardware sales of these OEM components, which attach to pre-hung entry doors, sliding patio doors, and windows at the factory or door shop. By embedding at the point of manufacture, ASSI captures aftermarket revenue that historically flows to home improvement retailers, specialty dealers, and online marketplaces. Products reach the US, Canada, and Australia through OEM partners. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and the company uses direct sales engagement with OEM prospects via website contact forms.

Broad incumbents

• Andersen Corporation: Andersen is one of the largest U.S. window and door manufacturers and a natural OEM partner for ASSI's 1Build products. Comparable as a fenestration OEM that procures and integrates third-party screen/hardware components into pre-hung systems, and could potentially internalize similar capabilities.
• JELD-WEN: JELD-WEN is a major global window and door manufacturer with substantial OEM procurement programs. Comparable as a large fenestration OEM that buys screen and hardware subsystems from suppliers like ASSI; a logical customer and a benchmark for in-house alternatives.
• Phifer Incorporated: Phifer is one of the largest U.S. manufacturers of insect screen, solar screen, and specialty mesh products, including pet-resistant and protective screens for doors and windows. A broad incumbent supplying screen materials across the fenestration channel; while less specialized than ASSI in security mesh, it competes for OEM specification slots.
• Saint-Gobain ADFORS: Saint-Gobain ADFORS is a major global manufacturer of insect, solar, and specialty screen fabrics including pet-resistant and security meshes. Comparable as a large incumbent screen-material supplier competing for the same OEM specification slots that ASSI targets, though offering broader (and less security-specialized) product lines.
• PGT Innovations: PGT Innovations manufactures impact-resistant windows, doors, and sliding glass doors, with a strong Florida/WUI and coastal-focus. Comparable as a fenestration OEM with overlapping impact/security performance requirements, and a potential OEM customer for security screen attachments.

Direct peers

• Amplimesh: Amplimesh (an ASSA ABLOY brand) produces stainless-steel woven mesh security screen doors and window screens meeting Australian AS 5039/5041 standards. Directly comparable product and wildfire/codes compliance profile, though primarily serving the Australian market via dealer networks.
• Crimsafe: Crimsafe manufactures and sells high-tensile stainless-steel mesh security screen doors and window screens. It is the closest direct peer to ASSI, producing a comparable stainless-steel mesh security product that resists impact and forced entry, though Crimsafe operates via dealer/installer channels rather than OEM-embedded.
• Larson Manufacturing: Larson is the largest U.S. storm door manufacturer with a portfolio of security and pet-resistant screen door options. Comparable as a multi-category door-screen brand addressing similar consumer needs (security, weather, pets) and selling partly through retail and OEM channels, overlapping with ASSI's storm door and security door products.
• Trellidor: Trellidor manufactures and installs retractable security screens and barrier doors for residential and commercial openings. Comparable as a security-screen specialist in the same architectural-mesh category as ASSI, but focused on direct-to-consumer installation rather than OEM integration.
• Unique Home Designs: Unique Home Designs is the sister division of Advanced Screen Systems under UHD Innovations, producing security and screen doors (including Meshtec-equipped units) for the residential market. Highly comparable product portfolio and shared mesh technology, with stronger consumer brand presence through retail and dealer channels.
