JELD-WEN Products Named Most Innovative
Innovative Designs Earn Three Major Awards For Industry Leader

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. September 05, 2007 — When it comes to designing innovative products, JELD-WEN, the world’s leading manufacturer of reliable windows and doors, continues to set the pace.

JELD-WEN was recently honored with three Crystal Achievement Awards from Window and Door magazine. Selected by a panel of judges representing all segments of the industry, the awards recognize significant innovations and achievements in window and door technology. JELD-WEN earned top Crystal Achievement Awards in the following categories:

Most innovative window: JELD-WEN® Custom Wood Windows with Phantom Screens® Technology
One of JELD-WEN’s most important breakthroughs of the year is designed to let the beauty of its Custom Wood windows shine through by incorporating Phantom Screens® Technology into the frames themselves. Designed specifically to work with JELD-WEN® Custom Wood windows, Phantom screens retract out of sight when not in use. When an insect screen is needed, it easily slides into place on a built-in track.

Most innovative door: JELD-WEN® Folding Door System in the new 90-degree configuration
JELD-WEN has added a dramatic new option for its award-winning Folding Door System: a true 90-degree, no corner post style that can be completely opened to the outdoors. To achieve this look, JELD-WEN accordion-style door units open and close at the corner where two walls would ordinarily join, allowing maximum indoor/outdoor access.
