What PGT, Inc. does

PGT, Inc. (legally PGT Industries, LLC, doing business as PGT Windows and Doors) is a Florida-based manufacturer of custom windows and doors founded in 1991 and headquartered in North Venice. The company specializes in impact-resistant products engineered for hurricane-prone regions, particularly Florida, and operates as a subsidiary of MITER Brands following its 2021 acquisition by Masonite International Corporation (subsequently rebranded MITER Brands). Its portfolio spans impact-resistant lines (WinGuard Aluminum, WinGuard Vinyl, Sparta), non-impact lines (EnergyVue vinyl, ClassicVue Max aluminum, Scout aluminum), entry doors (Estate by PGT), and commercial storefront products (PGT Commercial), supported by seven named sub-brands and a broad catalog of window configurations and door types.

PGT's underlying technology centers on laminated glass and reinforced frames manufactured in both aluminum and vinyl materials. Products are tested and certified to meet Miami-Dade's stringent impact-resistance requirements, functioning as a regulatory quality benchmark. The product catalog covers single-hung, double-hung, casement, awning, horizontal roller, picture, and architectural windows, as well as sliding glass doors, French doors, entry doors, and impact-resistant commercial storefront systems (3500/3520/3550 series). Professional tools include a Mullion/Anchor Capacity Calculator and CAD drawing resources.

PGT operates a channel-partner go-to-market model, selling exclusively through an authorized dealer network that handles quoting, installation, and post-sale support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with revenue generated through unit sales of custom windows and doors to four identified segments: Florida homeowners (primary), builders, commercial/architects, and dealers/distributors. The company supports dealers with technical resources, CAD drawings, and training through MITER University, and markets directly to consumers via website content, social media, and seasonal promotional campaigns that funnel prospects into the dealer channel. Geographic focus is the Southeast United States, with a national dealer locator suggesting broader reach into other hurricane-exposed markets.
